I walk the edges of a bliss field all my being turned outward, all my thinking turned inward, interconnected to universal reality a map and model of this astonishing life the map within me, an inversion, a wormhole through which life itself pours a river of data, a world of emergence signals in chemistry, in connection, patterns unfolding and integrating the shape is the thing within itself emerging, engaging, exchanging, life teems with communications so much of humanity lacks access shunted by their own choices; clumsy attempts to model claiming creation as if ever more than the seed, planted any […]

The Gatekeeping of Knowledge: How Paywalls Corrupt the Promise of Academia
The academic research ecosystem stands at a crossroads: it holds humanity’s most powerful tool for innovation, education, and societal advancement, yet it regularly chooses profit-driven gatekeeping through paywalls over open access. This entrenched system undermines the foundational mission of science and scholarship—serving the public good. This article outlines the top ten egregious outcomes of this system, exposes their ethical and practical costs, and chastises academia for enabling a corruption that betrays its very reason for existence.

Distributed Core Processing and Pattern Management: An Autistic Naturalist’s Theory of Locus and Mechanism
This paper presents a novel hypothesis for the locus and mechanism of what is traditionally termed “working memory,” reframed as “distributed core processing.” The genesis and development of this model arise not from conventional laboratory inquiry, but from sustained naturalistic observation and intensive, self-directed thought experiments over a lifetime. The author, an autistic individual, proposes that enhanced pattern management and acute environmental data processing—hallmarks of autistic cognition—confer insight into distributed brain network behaviors. The paper outlines the theory, its foundations, and the scientific literature now converging to validate these intuitions. It concludes with a critique of rhetorical aversion to neurodivergent difference, arguing such aversion diminishes global innovation capacity.
