Deep Lore
Recently on Twitter, someone told me they had forgotten that I was a writer, even though my writing was the reason they originally began following me a few years ago. They were implying that I had either stopped writing or had altered my content to such an extent that I was no longer recognizably producing […]
Though I don’t typically block people I debate or argue with on Twitter, I have recently arrived at the realization that there are so many accounts out there whose content I could do without ever seeing again. I don’t have a lot of patience for fools or pests, and I get tired of seeing certain […]
Mainframe ($MFT) has rebranded as HiFi Finance. I bought into this project last year, originally on the strength of their domain name but also due to the fact that they were one of the earliest to enter into the DeFi space. Rather then rush something into market, they have taken their time in fine tuning […]
It might seem a bit odd for someone who has been writing almost nonstop since 1995, but I have not owned a desk in a very long time. The last desk I owned was one that I purchased either at Savers or Goodwill for about $20 in the summer of 2010. It was a small […]
For both content creators and regular users, there has been an increasing demand for alternatives to Youtube and various other “Big Tech” social media platforms. Having used sites like Vid.me (now defunct), Gab, Parler, and BitChute, I’ve recently decided that one of the more promising “new media” creations is LBRY. LBRY insists that it is […]
It’s hard to imagine that after being subjected to decades of Hollywood blockbuster action movies―filled with overblown stunts, cheesy Schwarzeneggaresque one-liners and cartoonishly unrealistic premises―one could revisit a 1977 film like Black Sunday without rolling their eyes. Yet, the climactic final 30 minutes of Black Sunday are genuinely gripping. As with his earlier films like […]
So, it looks like 2015 is back in a bleak way, without all the illusory momentum, naive optimism, sprouting organizational seedlings and the relative openness of the wild west social media frontier. In terms of influence, in those days we were “punching above our weight” (as Spencer used to say) without realizing that we were […]
If you’re an apolitical normie or a casual shitposter, this article won’t be of much interest to you. However, if you’re active in “dissident” (whatever that has come to mean) political subcultures—whether you’ve been anointed as a charismatic “thought leader” or exist as a peripheral, docile, inconsequential (and totally not worth monitoring) figure like me—then […]
An ’80s teen classic, Just One of the Guys (directed by Lisa Gottlieb) is about a high school student named Terri (played by Jewish actress, Joyce Hyser) who dreams of becoming a journalist. After losing out on a job as an intern at a local newspaper to two guys she believes to be inferior writers, […]
No, I’m not talking about baseball, in case you were thinking of the infamous George Brett pine tar incident from the 1983 game between the Kansas City Royals and New York Yankees. Rather, I’m referring to Packer’s Pine Tar Shampoo. As I’ve mentioned before, I love classic grooming products (where they can still be found.) […]
