About canislupis

I joined YWS almost a decade ago, and it was a creative outlet for me then, but also an incredible source of learning and growth. I'm 21 now, and recently returned from four months studying Anthropology in Tanzania. In a few more months, I will graduate with a degree in Anthropology. Creative writing has been put on a back burner to make room for social theory and trying to understand just how the world works, but words and this site still hold a huge place in my heart.


Interests

I like animals, mountaineering, rock climbing, aerials, travel, the outdoors, classical piano, handcrafts, running, reading, writing, anthropology & social theory.


The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices; to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicions can destroy. A thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own.
