Daniel C. LaPointe

Hey folks. James and Sam roped me into this – but by now, I’ve become the default voice here. I’m a recent graduate of Harvard College with a concentration in mathematics. Despite this path of study, I’ve always been a humanities sympathizer, hence the blog posts. In my spare time I enjoy playing piano, going for walks, and watching old home videos. Fun facts? I don’t know. I sold my GME shares at $420.69, I guess.

Samuel E. Puopolo

I was born on a humid day in August of 1997 in a world still transforming from analog to digital, back when there were still payphones, but nobody used them. I have tried my best to be a good person, but I have fallen short many times and been too lenient with my failings. I enjoy writing about religion, philosophy, poetry, and movies, but my dayjob is as a strategy consultant. I have a B.A. in Classics from Harvard and I enjoy reading Latin, Ancient Greek, (Old, Middle, Modern) English, (Old, Modern) French, (Middle, Modern) Welsh, Old Irish, Old Occitan, Old Norse, Italian, and I’m trying to learn Biblical Hebrew, Avestan, and Sanskrit.

Finally. I graduated. This is an experimental blog, which I started as a result of the pandemic. Let’s do it.
