This is a post about me.
This is some music that I like.
These are some books that I read.
This is a thing that I do.
Sometimes, I write things that are short.
Other times, I write about how the people in charge of the world are doing.

Post with 30 notes

I’m feeling like I should have some sort of introduction post because why not

Hey, my name is Nick. You can call me that, or Captain Robocop or Robocop. I think those are all the things that I am called. Currently, I live with my parents in a small town about 30 miles southwest of Chicago. It is awesome not the worst outcome. They are both crazy in the good way, and I don’t have to worry about rent. But the suburbs aren’t really my natural habitat and most of the people that I’ve grown closest to live in the city. I’m going into my 13th quarter of study at the University of Chicago, where I learn about power. I have a really complicated relationship with the place that boils down to my being disillusioned with Academia while simultaneously loving most of the people that are at the UofC. When I’m not in class, I like to write and tell stories and make people laugh. Some of my friends and I are working on publishing a literary magazine that, hopefully, will come out sometime next month. I’m a huge news junkie, so that’s sort of a 24/7 habit as well. When I can have a big boy job, I think I want to work in Politics. Although to be honest, I’m not sure that I’ll ever actually be a big boy. Many things in my life are giving me some amount of angst, including but not limited to:

  • school
  • writing
  • America’s political situation
  • my living situation
  • my job situation
  • my secret shyness. 

I’m sure there are other things that you might care about. That’s what my askhole is for. Talk to me. I’m making a concerted effort to talk back.
