In tumultuous times, turn to science
I’m back!
After nearly a year of neglect, I'm reactivating this blog.
This Pharaoh is becoming Thoughtful again.
A domain to call my own

I also took the chance to update the look of the website and to update my About page. I decided that I wanted to make this blog …
A Thoughtful Year
Hello dear readers, Like I wrote back in September, 2017 will involve more writing here than 2016 did. No more excuses, no more "I don't have time".
