Tietoja minusta I'm a social democrat (in the European tradition) living in a nation of economic liberals, reactionary populists, traditional conservatives, docile nationalists, imperialistic Straussians, amoral hedonists, apathetic "gamers" and the obligatory handful of right- and left-leaning anti-statists... Consequently, my free hours are typically dedicated to histories, political theory, literature, a thorough review of national and international news or a heated political debate regarding any number of the pressing issues of our time.

Tietoja kirjastostani This is my corporeal library. A partial library of books that I've read, but do not own, can be found here, and a selection of books which I would one day like to peruse can be found here. Oh, and for record, this is not me.
