as a master of philosophy, due to its erasure of any philosopher who isn't a white man. (I was Epicurus, which of the options is probably one of the best of 7 evils although I was as usual quite evenly distrubuted).

I have next to zero knowledge in philosophy but it was interesting to see I had a spread across all the options. I’ll be spending the rest of my afternoon reading about what their philosophies were. Also, first time hearing about “Hume” the philosopher.

I used to be envious of people who had “MySpace friends” or “tumblr friends”. Now I have PI.FYI friends. Thank you capyboppy for your lovely letter and this illustration of a capybara and a mouse with fruit on our heads, it made me weirdly emotional ❤️
