About
Who are you?
- Saul Munn;
- I'm a philosophy undergrad;
- I'm currently taking a
semesteryear off to run OPTIC, Manifest, and some other stuff too [links forthcoming, can't say yet!]; and, - Go to my personal website if you want to know more mundane details about me, like where I go to college and what I look like.
Why "Brass Tacks"?
Four reasons:
- It's a cool, quirky idiom, sounds vibey, etc;
- It means "details of immediate practical importance." I'm deluding myself into thinking I write details of immediate practical importance, despite how remote, impractical, and unimportant they actually are;
- Joey Pendleton first introduced me to the phrase. He uses it a lot. I deeply respect and admire him, and the name is partly a tribute to him. and,
- The titular character of a TV show who decided he'd better call himself my name apparently uses it quite often. I've never watched the show, but Jack Such pointed this out to me and I thought it was hilarious.
