Hello Slow Boring readers!

What the hell is a "skluug"

Hi there! My name is skluug (pronounced like tube), and this is my blog, Infinite Clout. If you’re here, it’s probably because Matt Yglesias linked one of my posts on the latest edition of his newsletter, Slow Boring.

Now, taking a look around at Infinite Clout, you probably have just one question on your mind: is this “skluug” fellow going to keep posting more good shit? Or is it going to be more garbage like whatever the heck this is? Well, to be honest, this was really just a personal blog that I didn’t have any concrete plans for. But I’ve never been one to let a spotlight go to waste, so let’s make a deal: you click subscribe, and I promise to publish some more good posts.

You can probably expect more stuff clustered around futurism, philosophy, science fiction and Effective Altruism, since those are indeed among my chief interests. AstralCodexTen is a pretty good reference point in terms of topics.

A big thank you to Matt for the shoutout!
