How are we? Thanks for stopping by. There probably won't be anything "fun" around here, but feel free to poke around. I intend this place to be sort of a public journal for my musings and connections between ideas I have had the privelege of learning over the years. I'm no expert, and this will always be a work in progress. My formal studies only really focused on mechanical engineering, so I can only (somewhat) speak in relatively decent confidence on that. My interests in Marxism, economics, and philosophy are purely casual, although I try to approach them with an "engineering" mindset, in the best meaning. Below you should see some topics that I will touch on, and I believe that there is a tangible thread between them that, while seemingly abstract, is nonetheless real. Anyways, if you are to leave with just one of my thoughts: we cannot possibly achieve a better world without first understanding the world that we currently have, and without planting the seeds of the new world within the shell of the old. Find, refine, and stay true to your principles, not just because they were told to you, but because you know them to be true. We only have each other.
