In way of an introduction

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury:

This blog is a quiet bottled letter. In it, I want to discuss ideas, politics, literature, film and genocide, among other things. I want to give myself a space where I can work out some of the ideas that keep me awake at night. I hope that others will find this site interesting or helpful, but even if it's but an exercise in vanity, staring at my own reflection in ones and zeros, I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. What's important for me is to get some of these things off my chest and, in theory at least, into a public forum.
