WELL: The funny thing I've been discovering this term is that if you spend more of your time doing your reading, you have less of it to spend doing things like blogging. Richard Rorty (and his anti-liberal, anti-democratic self) having been sufficiently made fun of in class by me (e.g. "one might want to infer from this... oh... wait... inferring is bad... one might want to engage in a redescription of this process"), and the world being made safe for metaphysicians again, and, more importantly, me not having anything pressing to do until after spring break (a.k.a. "doing reading for my lit review in International Relations"), and (crown me the king of the run-on sentences) this being prospectives weekend (a.k.a. 'the happiest weekend of the year'), it seems only fitting to make a few general notes as to what's been going on:
1. I'm already in the planning stages of writing my first children's book on political science; it'll be on the Communist show trials, and I plan to call it Goodnight Trotsky.
2. The biggest running joke in my social group at the moment involves pooled cross-sectional time-series analyses; my game theory study group decided that constructivism was the only way for us to complete out homework ("what do we think it means for something to be sub-game perfect?")
3. Dan Lee: still not thinking anything
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
