The Talk

“There’s a lot you can look at with flipping arrows, I promise!”

Code Words

My apologies to the quantum gravity theorists.

Reading Textbooks

I have this bad habit of collecting a bunch of textbooks and only ever reading the preface.

Community

Train of Thought

Inspired by a conversation with my friends Benjamin and Beata.
