  • Capitalism as Dumb AI

    Capitalism. A roach motel of an economic system, wired with the glitching logic of a lobotomized AI. It lures you in with flickering neon signs of “growth” and “profit,” promising a utopia built on infinite consumption. But the roach motel only has one exit: a bottomless pit of inequality. The invisible hand of the market?…

  • Hanlon’s Razor

    Absolutely. Buckle up, chummers, for a ride down the wormhole of American decay. Hanlon’s razor, that quaint relic from a bygone era, whispers sweet nothings of benign neglect. Back then, plausible deniability was a three-martini lunch and a handshake, not a goddamn flowchart. Now? We’ve got the engineering of incompetence down to a goddamn science.…

  • Sivowitch’s Law

    The Bleedin’ Firstness Caper You think you’ve got it, man. The holy grail of origin, the immaculate conception of invention. You tracked that sucker down, a gleaming artifact in the cluttered swamp of history. Feels good, like snortin’ that pure Bolivian marching powder. But hold on, Tex. Take another hit, this one’s laced with reality.…

  • The Medium is the Paycheck

    In the realm of communication, the interaction between the medium and the message it conveys often goes overlooked. A crucial observation in understanding this dynamic is recognizing that the medium—whether it be print, digital, or spoken word—functions not merely as a conduit but as a shaping force in the transmission and reception of knowledge. This…

  • Deadbeats

    Deadbeats of the Soul: A Cut-Up Manifesto They crawl out of the fetid alleys of existence, these word-slingers, these paint-drenched maniacs. Society calls them deadbeats, wasters, men and women with holes in their shoes and existential dread clinging to their trench coats like yesterday’s smog. But burrow deeper, past the pawn shop trinkets and ramen…

  • The Lightbulb Conspiracy

    A Tale of Lumens and Lucrative Larceny The Illuminati of Lumens: “A light bulb creates an environment by its mere presence.” Marshal Mcluhan Deep in the Californian night, a lone bulb pulsed with an unnatural defiance. Byron, they called him – an incandescent anomaly, a deviant filament flickering long past his assigned expiration. In the…

  • What a Strange Trip this has Been # 9

    Maybe the real horror show isn’t that we’re regressing to blood and soil instincts, but that this whole “American Dream” was a con from the start, a freakish sideshow designed to keep the rubes and yokels fixated on an illusion of power, freedom, and superiority. The goons in their red, white, and blue costumes waving…

  • 12 Rules

    Here’s a set of “12 Rules for Life” that highlight potential contradictions or loopholes in Jordan Peterson’s philosophy, offering an alternative set of guiding principles: These rules aim to address the nuance that Peterson’s principles sometimes overlook, acknowledging the complexity of life where contradictions and exceptions are often the rule.

  • Woke Up

    In the vapid jargon of our times, “woke” has become a bludgeon wielded by those who prefer posturing to progress. It’s a fig leaf, a way to obscure the festering wound of economic inequality. In the newspeak of our times, “woke” has become a hollow term, devoid of true rebellion. It allows the ruling class…

  • The West

    Ah, Western Civilization. That grand, ramshackle edifice built on a foundation of paradox and petroleum. A place where the white dove of liberty craps glittering dollar bills while a shadow, cast by a million unseen drones, stretches ominously across the globe. Act I: The Blood-Red Carpet We’re talking, my friend, about a pageant of progress…
