I am what I guess to be a pretty modal Wikipedia editor: an overeducated, underemployed male from a rich country (and not an especially interesting one at that). I suppose it's about time that I got around to actually contributing to site I use so extensively as a reader.

My reading cycles between history, social science, philosophy, and speculative fiction; I hope to make a habit of incorporating useful or important bits from the former three into here, where appropriate. My academic background is in sociology and in the histioriography of fascism, where I hope I can lend some additional help.
