Introduction

To those of you who may eventually read this, be warned: this is not a Good Blog. As in, well maintained, amazingly written, carefully thought out. This is a place for me to throw my thoughts, and go on rants when my mind is churning to an unusual degree.

I am not a blog reader. It is extremely rare for me to visit a blog page at all. So why do I think anyone would want to read a blog written by me? The answer: I don't. If not a single person ever reads this, that is completely OK. These posts will be written as much for me as for any one else.

So what is the purpose of a blog? If I intend to write for myself, there are plenty of note taking apps and services that would be glad to record my thoughts. Tbh, I'm not sure what I'm doing here. I think the biggest reason I'm here is to make some of my mental discussions public enough to easily share with specific people, as well as let them share it with other people if they get the urge.


A little of my ideology. I love logic. And I like opinions. Not only mine, but yours too. In fact, your opinions have the added advantage of being novel. However, I am also reactionary. My relish for others' opinions means I will cross examine them, look at the subject from other angles, and even throw every objection at them I can. Not because I don't like them, but because I do.

I like good solid opinions. Opinions that can be examined and maintain their solidity. Therefore, I examine opinions. I like arguing, it is true. But it is because I like new ideas, and wish to test them.

Back to the state of this blog. I have written to and for myself in the past in various ways. I still have many of those "essays." It is likely that some of them will show their faces here at some point.

Au Revoir, and... (do barbarians speak French? I don't either!) ...and please forgive my lack of cohesion.
