post bits of your writing and links to stuff you’ve written here for constructive criticism.

if you post anything here try to specify what kind of feedback you would like. For example, are you looking for a critique of your assertions, creative feedback, or an unbiased editorial review?

if OP specifies what kind of feedback they'd like, please respect it. If they don't specify, don't take it as an invite to debate the semantics of what they are writing about. Honest feedback isn’t required to be nice, but don’t be an asshole.

Didn't one of the Arbital head honchos have a psychotic episode after writing unhinged rants about rationality dojos making superhumans?

well, seems like that didn't pan out, but I still have hope for my attempted successor to the automobile and/or trigonometry and/or Leonard Nimoy
