“The War Zone” Proposal is a radical idea to create specific arenas in desolate parts of the world for militaries to fight each other while the rest of society continues on like normal and without disruption from a conflict they don’t care enough about.

AN OPEN LETTER TO JIMMY KIMMEL (AND THE “HOLLYWOOD ELITE”)
Hey Jimmy Kimmel (and other “Hollywood Elites”), I saw your monologue from Wednesday’s show and was very happy to see that you and all the late night hosts talked about climate change and pushing elected leaders to do more. I think one way you and the upper echelon of the “Hollywood elite” (I’m talking actors, producers,Continue reading “AN OPEN LETTER TO JIMMY KIMMEL (AND THE “HOLLYWOOD ELITE”)”
MOTHER NATURE IS FURIOUS
As humans we need to change our relationship with the natural world. We have been abusing it for decades with the abuse getting exponential as our societies continue to develop and major industries focus more on maximizing profits than they do with creating a symbiotic relationship with nature. We are dealing with significant disasters allContinue reading “MOTHER NATURE IS FURIOUS”
A SOLUTION TO CALIFORNIA’S UNHOUSED PEOPLE CRISIS
So my governor, Gavin Newsom, announced yesterday that he wants to put $12 Billion towards fixing the unhoused people/homelessness crisis in California. I have an idea of how to effectively use that money. It might be a little radical but I think it could work. Here it is: He takes the money and pays forContinue reading “A SOLUTION TO CALIFORNIA’S UNHOUSED PEOPLE CRISIS”
POWER DYNAMICS AND THE MEDIA
One of the things that scares elected leaders and people in power is an informed voting block. The political elite wants us to remain uninterested and disaffected. It makes it easier for them to stay in office and grow their own bag. Get informed as a way to take power back. Seriously. Read the news.Continue reading “POWER DYNAMICS AND THE MEDIA”
THE MEANING OF LIFE AND DEATH
I’ve figured it out! J/k, I have not. But I have spent many nights thinking about humanity, existence, religion, science, the multiverse, and death as we struggle through the pandemic. One of the questions (well, kind of two interconnected questions) that spans all races, religions, creeds, groups, individual humans is wondering the meaning of lifeContinue reading “THE MEANING OF LIFE AND DEATH”
HOMESTEADING CAN SAVE AMERICA!
How Millennials (and Gen-Z) can build generational wealth, create a more sustainable way of life, and help save the American economy (essentially) all at once by building communal homesteads. I wrote this is essay as a letter to a friend. He and I were discussing a variety of issues we’re both passionate about and housingContinue reading “HOMESTEADING CAN SAVE AMERICA!”
A CURIOUS SOUL (bleh)
I don’t think that I have a soul that’s really ever been at peace. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had moments of peace and solace in my life but that’s all they are; moments. Being human is being a living contradiction, especially in the modern world. We use antiquated stories to shape our present dayContinue reading “A CURIOUS SOUL (bleh)”
PAPERHANDED
I paper handed last Thursday morning, February 4th (sold my $GME position for a sizable loss), after having a panic attack the night before while watching an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Also, that was on my 36th birthday. I felt lost, alone, and like no one cares about me. I used to thriveContinue reading “PAPERHANDED”
YELLING INTO THE VOID
I’m here (here is currently Los Angeles by way of Grand Rapids, Michigan), I have ideas (I think they’re good, or at the very least thought-provoking), but I’m pretty sure I’m shouting into the void. I’m used to people not really listening to me when I talk or wanting to engage with my ideas. IContinue reading “YELLING INTO THE VOID”
