The History of the World and the Three Religions Which Rule It
I’m extremely bothered by the way we exist. It’s taken me a long time to realize that most people either don’t notice, don’t care, or are too busy trying to make a decent life for themselves or their loved ones to be able to spend time on these things. I, unfortunately, am unable to simply…

A Manifesto of Peopolism

The -isms of yesterday are no longer useful – and in some cases have been proven to be deadly…
An Open Letter to America’s Billionaires – Change Humanity’s Future
Dear Billionaires, I’ve done my best to join you, but so far – I haven’t even gotten close. The reason I’ve tried wasn’t because I want to be a rich guy with a big swimming pool and a fancy car collection. Nor is it that I want any of the other trappings of wealth and…
Sociopathism – American Capitalism is a Serious Problem

I am a firm believer in the idea that if you work hard, make sacrifices, and tread carefully – you should be…

Valentines – I’ve been married 10 years and didn’t even like this holiday before I was married. Now, it’s just a game of gauging expectation and…
