A few weeks ago I presented at the first annual Philosopher’s Cocoon philosophy conference at the University of Tampa. Philosopher’s Cocoon is a community that seeks to help, assist, and support young career philosophers. I had the opportunity to meet some interesting people. It was fun and intimate and I was able to receive some helpful feedback on my paper “The Burden of Queer Explanation.”
