It was founded in December 2018 by Andrés Gómez Emilsson, Mike Johnson and Romeo Stevens.”

In our time, when despair and nihilism are rampant, and the future appears only dimly like a hole through thick fog, Praxis is building a city. I have always been attracted to autistic totalizing visions, and brazen intellectual ambition. It is increasingly rare to imagine a specific, better future and to work toward it, and Praxis is doing that. They also have a journal, where they are publishing essays.

This city has the best climate in America. I love it so much. I wish I lived here. The AI researchers, the big tech yuppies, the fact there’s an ethnic neighborhood for cishet frat bros—I love it more than anywhere else in America. The group houses, the cults, the rationalists, the technoptimists, the pure and untapped creative alpha. I have literally not spent more than two weeks in San Francisco. It’s a social scene the size of Dimes with 100x higher impact. “Oh let’s go to clandestino” No let’s go to The Interval at the Long Now.

I was quite bored in 2019. I got really into cars. I learned everything about them. Why did I do this? I didn’t know how to drive and this was the only way to motivate myself. They film all of the car youtube videos on Angeles Crest. It’s beautiful and you can drive very fast. I now live 10 minutes away from this place at a house nestled deep in a river valley. My roommates went to Deep Springs and the house is 98 years old.
