Professional research hobo loves Darwin

You know that xkcd comic about wanting to major in everything (https://xkcd.com/863/)? I managed to make that my job, and it’s as great as it sounds.

Some topics I’m considering for the fellowship: The boring part of Bell Labs (because PS keeps retreading the same parts), AI research tools (for the same reason I’d be covering the industrial revolution in 1850), the development of the theory of natural selection (I was gifted with a teacher who taught evolution at a much deeper level than normal, and it’s the most interesting thing in the world) (this week).

I used to read nonfiction for fun but ruined it for myself with fact checking, so now my leisure reading went fiction only. Now I’m finding it really difficult to find fiction I like, so if you have favorites let me know. I’m also very into stand-up comedy and am looking forward to seeing Taylor Tomlinson in September.

In high school I was a championship targetshooter and more recently got into axe throwing.

I have two cats, a grumpy old lady and a tiny dog with pointy ears.
