I’m Mary Townsend, an associate professor of philosophy at St. John’s University, Queens, New York. You can see my list of writings here, academic and otherwise.
What I do on substack is mess around: having a spot to write things off the cuff, in longer form than the tweet, keeps writing a little playful. I speak to this here: language and thought is best when looking for some third thing, that is, something it doesn’t already know.
