I analyze issues related to facecamming.

I discuss armchair philosophers, being unconventional, and learning from criticism. Topics include therapy, polyamory, non-coercive parenting and social dynamics.

Think about what it means if school is actually a really shitty place. Failing at school doesn't mean you're dumb or a failure. Getting straight A's doesn't mean you're educated or smart.

I discuss how to get better at critically analyzing research papers.
