Hey! I’m Elijah.
I’m a high school senior who’s been homeschooling for the past year.
I firmly believe that almost everything is fascinating. I’ve loved everything from paleogenomics to exotic computing to the history of philosophy, and I love to learn. I especially like molecular- and micro- biology, rocket engine design, and whatever thing in the world I’m currently confused about (right now fluid dynamics!).
Also EDM, biking, getting nerdsniped and building random projects, and thinking about trippy things with a meta-reality flavor.
I don’t like Ethical Obligations (as a very bad lapsed effective altruist). I want to do things that touch my senses of wonder and curiosity, even if they’re not strictly Rationally Effective. I want to see immortal humans, total understanding of the universe, galaxy-spanning consciousness, guns that can fling beluga whales into orbit. You know, cool stuff.

Anyway, I really love talking with cool, interesting people like you (yes you!) Please reach out to me, I’d love to chat about anything and everything you find interesting.
