Welcome to The Onist

Short-form content from my latest learnings and experiences

Onism: n. the frustration of being stuck in just one body, that inhabits only one place at a time, which is like standing in front of the departures screen at an airport, flickering over with strange place names like other people’s passwords, each representing one more thing you’ll never get to see before you die—and all because, as the arrow on the map helpfully points out, you are here. (Coined by author and poet, John Koenig)

I named this newsletter “The Onist” because it is my attempt at metaphorically inhabiting multiple bodies. Sharing insights in the mode of my latest thoughts, biggest obstacles, and recent experiences spurs interesting discussion that can expand the worldview of everyone involved.
