Hello, I'm an inveterate academic with no respect for discipline boundaries. I'm also an unrelenting activist for social justice. I currently live in Portland Oregon with my wife, L., and our pets.

Instead of copying all my bio shit over, you can find out more about me on my professional website, including: how to contact me all over the net, my professional background, what I research, what activism means to me (hint: a lot), and a few of my hobbies. While I do discuss professional topics on this blog, it is primarily a personal space. My posts vary wildly between linguistics, mathematics, programming, gender/sexuality studies, social justice activism, and random scraps of life. If you are only interested in the Haskell- and maths-oriented posts, you should follow the haskell planet tag.

All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
They are endowed with reason and conscience
and should act towardsone another in a spirit of fellowship.

(Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 1)

As a starting point for my essays on social justice: this is my definition of “feminism” and “sexism”. Much of my activism is about dismantling Silence Culture. And I currently assume a projectivistic theory of identity.
