I’m a professor of Religious Studies with a research focus on medieval Islam, particularly with regard to Sufism, the occult sciences, and manuscript culture. I also interested in all things linux, occult, scifi, UFO, and anarchist.

Took me a second, but to be fair I’m pretty high.

World population has more than doubled since 1974, so I bet the president can kill a whole lot more than 70 million people in 25 minutes nowadays. That’s not great given how much stupider and crazier our current president is than even Nixon was.
Thanks man, I needed that today.
