After the discontinuation of the group blog of which I was a member (the noble but now-defunct www.mankindminusone.com, named for John Stuart Mill’s quote about democracy), I decided that I wanted an individual blog to serve as a clearing-house for the various things I write on the Internet. I also wanted to re-post some of my older pieces that were lost during a server crash, and merge various posts of links and articles that I made on social networking sites. I write about the topics listed above, with the occasional post of random musings.
