About
Daily Meh is written and edited by Simen (contact me). It is, basically, about whatever interests me. Some things that have held my interest over time: philosophy, photography, logic, the internet, pop culture, not-at-all-popular culture, computer science, linguistics and speculative fiction. Among other things. You might also like to know that I live and go to school in a small town in Norway.
