CURRENT MISSION

Moonlighting as an epigrammatist. I want to share my love of brevity with a culture that has no appreciation for it. Have plenty of 'why's, still working on a 'how'.

ABOUT ME

I don't want to write things about myself. Here's some Stevie Smith:

Nobody heard him, the dead man,
But still he lay moaning:
I was much further out than you thought
And not waving but drowning.

Poor chap, he always loved larking
And now he's dead
It must have been too cold for him his heart gave way,
They said.

Oh, no no no, it was too cold always
(Still the dead one lay moaning)
I was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an absurdist. My life has no meaning. I work to make my life, and by extension the lives of everyone I associate with, better simply because I understand this will increase the enjoyability of living.

Interests

I am interested in breaking down and rebuilding anything that isn't up to a very high standard. This includes anything from social structures, infrastructure technology, and computer systems, all the way down to little things like personal clothing items, mannerisms, and thought patterns.

I'm currently working on learning to produce simple electronic solutions to problems from scratch, so that I have more options than, and less reliance on, pre-packaged solutions.

I have a great interest in learning, and am looking into ways I can help others learn life skills that aren't taught anywhere else, and find acceptance for their personal worldviews (except in the case of worldviews that are toxic and degrading to others).

Teach, Learn, Share

I am not big on history/culture/tourist attractions. I am an okay source of other knowledge, however, such as how things work or how to improve things. I have some practical crafting skills, as well as coding and vector artistry. I can teach people about slam poetry, and engaging an audience orally. I guess I also have a lot of computer skills in a few specialized areas.

I want to learn basically everything practical, and be exposed to a lot of music. A few new recipes would be cool, too.
