The title of this post is one with which we’re all familiar. After all, that’s what life is about, right? We work, we grind, we sacrifice, and we compromise – all with the intention of reaching a point where we can sit back, relax, and say “it was all worth it.” But do we ever … More The Pursuit of Happiness
For anyone that reads my blog, you know that I write about this particular topic frequently. Despite this, I feel the need to elaborate further due to the nature of the presidential election that recently shocked the world. For once in the history of humanity’s short time on this planet, there is a mechanism more … More The Most Powerful Force in the World
Its no secret that humanity is going through one of its tensest periods in our short history on this planet. Class warfare, social control, and behind the scenes manipulation has dominated the population for as long as we can look back. The individuals who had the ability to think openly, see the world as a … More The Real Revolution: the War We Don’t Know We’re Fighting
I recently watched a very entertaining documentary that highlighted some of the antics of the well-known hacker group, Anonymous. Admittedly, before I viewed it, I didn’t have a whole heck of a lot of knowledge about the group. I, probably like most of you, assumed that Anonymous was a small group of hooded kids in their … More Don’t Piss Off Anonymous
Yesterday I posted the results of my little project to figure out why some people have negative perceptions of black culture. That’s all well and good – but now what? What can we do now that we’re armed with this knowledge? Being able to apply these answers to fight racism was my intention from the … More Roots of Racism: Applying What I’ve Learned
I’ve decided to post the Chapters to Currency, my three-part historical fiction tale of the inception/evolution/elimination of fiat money, one at a time as I write them. Basically the story will be posted in an episodic format one chapter at a time. I’m going to consolidate them as I post them in its own page, … More Currency: Chapter 2
So I think I’ve decided to write currency out on my blog, since I’ve taken such an interest in it. Perhaps later I’ll wrap it into a book, but I like the suspense of periodic installments. Plus this way its free, which is always a plus. First chapter below. Warning: might be a bit weird. … More Currency: Chapter 1
I spend a lot of time thinking about things. Some are meaningful, some are mostly irrelevant, and some I think about simply to entertain myself (generally about things most people think are stupid). One such thing (the importance of which I am admittedly unable to decide), is how fascinating it is to consider how much … More The Evolution of Intellect – Transcending our Animal Instincts
I’ve always been a fan of quotes. When I had a desk job, I posted a print-out of all my favorites and hung them in from top me on the wall as a constant reminder of who I want to be. There is one, however, that I read recently which particularly resonated with me. Legendary … More Character vs Reputation: Why Your Opinion of You is the Only One That Matters
At the moment, I have an average life. I work, I play, I doodle sometimes, what have you. I have a life. Just like all of you guys. You know what’s cool about that? The fact that I’m sitting here writing about whatever I want. Did you know that if you happened to be born … More I’m Proud to be an American
