If you walk the streets of any city and look at the faces, hear the languages, note the foods, fashions, and festivals, it is impossible to miss a simple truth: all of humanity, everywhere on Earth, is the product of migration. Borders are recent. Migration is ancient. Arguing against migration (or against the diversity it brings) is like arguing against air or water as necessary for life. Here, let’s review…
Impetus, inertia, and individual coping skills
Troubled times often gather in tangled knots—personal, societal, and global. When life takes a sharp downturn, why do so many freeze, become rigid, or imagine the worst? Why do humans sometimes treat converging troubles as doom, inescapable and insurmountable?
The Human Crisis: Our Struggle For Cohesion
Look around, and you’ll see a paradox: in a world of technological marvels and vast resources, billions still suffer from hunger, homelessness, and hatred. We’ve mapped genomes, explored distant planets, and shrunk the world through digital connections, yet we can’t seem to guarantee everyone a full belly, a safe place to sleep, and mutual respect.
The repeated story is that this is “just the way things are.” But is it really? Or are we missing something deeper that cuts across borders, politics, and technologies?

The Perplexity conversation with full citations below.
Ignore the propaganda/media (all you need to know is…)
(audio courtesy of https://notegpt.io – a free online text to speech generator) Captive, coerced, and controlled labor is the grail of economy. Cheap, captive, coerced, and controlled labor is the grail of capitalism. Cowed, cheap, captive, coerced, and controlled labor is the grail of power. Consider the focus and locus of all this activity and effort — it is enlightening: All economy stops without labor. Global Capitalism fails without labor. All Power crumbles without labor. If you sell your labor, every bit of the above is targeting you. Economy, Global Capitalism, Power, they ALL know their entire kingdom rests upon […]
Thoughts on ‘handing out hits for free’, errata
In 2010, I submitted several ideas to my employer, a TCCG and Analog Pen and Paper Roleplay company: They laughed me out of the meeting and laid me off later that year. In June of 2023, thirteen years after I and all my suggestions got laughed out of the company, they finally released the LoTR cross over set. It is the #1 selling set of all time as I write this. To date, they have yet to manage print on demand, but it remains most likely to save their PnP brand. They didn’t go all in on their MMO, which […]
Thoughts on this moment – April 2025
The biggest crime this administration and its rooted eugenics, xenophobia, and insecurity (i.e., supremacist) have, are, and seemingly will continue to commit is an active and vehement conditioning of young AMABs on the matter of their ‘right’ to control, dominate, and possess (context: effective ownership) AFAB humans. While significant elements of this process include the explicit and public same against any/all minority, culturally different, Neurodivergent, Disabled, and/or Religiously different humans, the goal is to maintain the historical position of authoritarian power as both a (mythical) ‘race’ called ‘white’ and an equally mythical ‘natural’ or ‘biological’ supremacy as ‘The Binary Progenitor’ […]
#Registered TYS and thoughts
It’s April 15, 2025, and the United States is collapsing, practically in real-time. There is an authoritarian, dictatorial, and utterly vindictive man child holding the highest position in our country. They were elected to it by the fascist, racist, and generally self-centered ‘white’ ignorance, a majority within the country. But it seems the federal government has held many fascist, racist, and self-centered ‘white’ intelligentsia for decades; seemingly waiting for the opportunity to ‘restore’ themselves to power and return any who are not part of this deviant ‘us’ to sub-humanized placements, beholden to them for life itself. This pattern has been […]
