I have mostly abdicated from the standards expected in civilised society.

I am (excruciatingly slowly) doing a PhD in biochem. Into history, books (often history), and, whisper it quietly, videogames.

But mostly I just read a lot.

The PhD and shit. Mostly the 'and shit'.

Non-sequiturs. No, really.

I FUCKING LOVE POKEMON

Wait, no, my platinum grills, for sure.

Honestly couldn't even begin to guess. I've been told I have a slightly peculiar accent. People occasionally assume I'm American. I assume they're stupid.

Authors: Noam Chomsky, George Orwell, Ian McEwan, David Mitchell, Philip K Dick, Hilary Mantel, F Scott Fitzgerald, etc into infinity. BOOKS ARE THE GREATEST, BITCHES.

Music: Shoegaze and hiphop are favourites.

Books, music, internet, football, news, friendship.

Science/work stuff. History, politics politics politics, economics, and lots and lots of utterly useless claptrap.

Also, how to work my favourite rap lyrics of the moment into everyday conversation. Currently shouting "call the cops when you see tupac / get your glocks when you see tupac" at random strangers; results have so far been mixed.

Directing clandestine machinations with the ultimate goal of overthrowing the government and installing a technocratic socialist republic. Oh, and occasionally having a few drinks with some friends in a bar where the music level permits actual conversation... until I'm ready to dominate the dancefloor.

These days, the former is more frequent.

The most innocuous things occasionally make me comically agitated.

Oh, and I judge people like nobody's business. But I'm working on that.

You are really, really awesome.

You are introspective.
