  • I’m sorry you’re going through that. I’m currently reforming myself of those same tendencies.

    My excuse was and is money but, it’s only that, an excuse. So I started making construction paper cards and origami flowers. It’s not the flowers and restaurants they used to be but, she seems to appreciate it.

    P.s. the origami lily folds refuse to sink into my smooth brain. I gotta watch the same YT vid Everytime 😞













  • I have pretty honest conversations with my kid. He is pretty bright and I can explain things to him.

    A while back we had a conversation about weed. I told him it’s just a plant that grows, gets harvested, processed and smoked. Since, he’s still single digits in age, I told him it’s an herb. I didn’t really want him screaming “weed!” If he smelled it outside.

    I’m nervous about him growing up today. It’s a scary world out there, alls’ I can do is try and teach him about it.




  • This was fundamentally my argument. It would be preferable for things to get better under liberal democracy.

    That isn’t the case and by many people’s estimation could never be the case. This is juxtaposed with the idea things can only get better with the degradation of the current world order.

    Thanks for talking with me. Best of luck in the coming years.


  • Last two questions and I’ll be done bothering you.

    Do you believe we can achieve those systems with our current world order? (Liberal-facsism)

    How do you implement direct democracy and scale it without interference from the capital class?

    I’m a big fan of anarchism and socialism but, it’s still my opinion that the best way for us to achieve those systems are a transitionary period emerging from a liberal democracy. I feel all other ways will be orders of magnitude worse for humanity.
