| Introduction | I was a political junkie and history buff since the age of 12. I started as a socialist, then became a conservative, then a nonconsequentialist free marketeer, and since then a consequentialist free marketeer. I consider myself socially liberal and willing to try new things, frequently suffering from FOMO (Fear or Missing Out). Consequently, I err on the side of trying things versus regretting things I haven't tried. Religiously, I'm an recovering from Roman Catholicism, but I have always found that liberals proselytize him more than religious folks. For fun, I seek Epicurean delights through ethnic dining, and cheating death by constantly working out. I am frequently annoyed by unacknowledged double standards and indirect communication. Everyone has some feature that surprises everyone. Me - I like death metal, though I mostly keep my music at the gym. |
