Office Hours

Got a question for me?

Let’s chat. I’d be happy to try to help.

What can we talk about?

Whatever you want, mostly. If I don’t want to answer your question, I’ll just say so.

Topics that often come up in my conversations include: AI, books, career advice, glowfic, kink, me and my life, polyamory, rationality, relationships, sex, the end of the world, writing.

I’m not a therapist anymore and if answering your question feels too much like providing therapy I will probably pass on it.

If your question requires you to give me several minutes of context/backstory before we get to the question, that’s probably not going to work for me in this context.

I might add more guardrails here as needed.

Why are you doing this?

For my own nefarious purposes! Specifically, I will (by default) record our conversation and use software to generate a transcript. Then I might write a blog article or other content inspired by your question.

I will not share the recording or the transcript, nor will I quote you, without your explicit consent. I will do my best not to reveal your personal information in my later blogging.

I like writing down the answers to questions that real people actually ask me. You are, potentially, a real person, and you might have questions that other people also want to hear the answers to.

Who can sign up?

You, probably! Please don’t sign up for asshole reasons.

If you’re a journalist or if you intend to do your own blogging or other public writing / speaking about our conversation, please say so up front.

What does this cost?

It’s free for now!

How do I sign up?

I’m starting by offering just a few hours available on a single day (June 11th, 2025). If it is past that date, or the calendly no longer shows availability on that date, then you’ll have to check back later.

If you want to ask a question without coming to office hours, you can send it to my admonymous. No guarantee that I’ll blog the answer, though.
