I am not attracted to men.

I don't want to be attracted to men.

I dont want to want to be attracted to men.

*But* I want to want to want to be attracted to men.

I think this pattern holds for many groups of people I could be attracted to but am not, e.g. trans people, overweight people &c.

Why do my desires flip when I remove the influence thrice?!

We already had the wave of physicists, we are still waiting on the shoe to drop on topologists, but THE WAVE OF CRYPTOGRAPHERS INTO NEUROSCIENCE is the single most promising thing that i can imagine for the discipline. I have been wailing about this for years, but if as a neuroscientist prof you were to go to attend the cryptography 101 seminar at your university, you would be LITERALLY ON FIRE with good ideas and one million obvious experiments that should be done.

i sorta "give away free research agendas" as a way to survive in academia and the one i wish most someone would pick up on is NEUROSCIENTISTS COLLABORATE WITH CRYPTOGRAPHERS so they would hire me.
