In this essay, I discuss the Greek form of love known as "xenia", or the love of foreigners and guests. The more diverse a population becomes, the greater the demands for xenia in order to have enough coherence despite that plurality. With the internet, we have even greater blending of people that crosses the boundaries of any nation or culture, but also even less in-person contact with the people who we vote with.

In this essay, I discuss Peter Sloterdijk's philosophical work, "Bubbles". A bubble is the relational space that includes two people. In the past, people have created bubbles that were rich with meaning, but such bubbles have become nihilistic spaces under capitalism. How might we re-enchant our bubbles and reinspire post-capitalist meaning?

In this essay, I discuss how creepy men are often simply low status in an unjust hierarchy. Importantly then, high status men can often be far more deserving of the label "creepy", yet their unethical behaviour is ignored by people who crave their social status. When low status men are attractive, they become vehicles for the perpetuation of the unjust hierarchy that sets the terms of what's socially acceptably "attractive".
