$ whois Hardmath123I am a student who loves to write. I started this blog back in high school, writing about whatever happened to interest me at the time. Of course, those interests have shifted over time, but the theme of this blog has been quite constant: that there is treasure everywhere, in even the most mundane places, and it isn’t buried deep. It is yours, as long as you take care to look out for it.
Hardmath123
is my alias on the internet. It was chosen in a much-regretted burst of spontaneity when I was young[er] and [more] foolish, and has inextricably linked itself with me since then.
$ ping Hardmath123If you have something to say, you can leave a comment on any of the posts. You can also open an issue on this blog’s Github repository. For direct messages, you can message me on IRC as hardmath123 on irc.freenode.net.
