New blog! I’ll be building this out throughout 2026, including posting a big backlog of my existing work.
My Shtick
I’m the first currently-known person to get modern FTM top surgery fully awake. No sincere question will offend me.
Things I’m Into
Classical liberalism and enlightenment values
Abundance and progress
In particular, healthcare abundance
Increasing healthcare supply
Removing barriers to medical innovation
Patient-side medical freedom
Rationalist and effective altruist values
Capitalism, smartly-maintained free markets
Surgery
Anesthesia and pain relief
Expanding moral circles, reducing suffering of all creatures
Men and masculinity (from a kind, egalitarian, not anti-woman perspective)
FTM transition (from a sex-realist, facts-based perspective)
Gay male culture and history
Youth rights
Big machines
Ideological diversity
Fetish positivity, sexual and artistic liberation
Biohacking, overcoming nature and death
Not assuming malice where “the problem is actually hard” can explain things instead
Here’s a summary of what my life and work is like.

Here’s a list of things that have shaped my values and beliefs.
