a picture of me, tomek

Uhednál[?], I'm Tomek 👋

I'm a chronological[?] 20 year old studying Mathematics and Philosophy at the University of Vermont, with a sub-interest in Systems Theory[?]. I enjoy observing the biosphere, reading SciFi—particularly solarpunk, and making the world a better place. Long-term, I'm building Endstate, the umbrella organization for Governed, Plot and Project Immortify.

In a sense, this would unshackle us to make more genuine discoveries.
