A Theory

I have a theory to explain the apparent insanity that is occurring sociopolitically.

1. A certain twice impeached convicted felon and sex offender AND current POTUS - who shall remain unnamed - is dying.

2. Said individual now knows this and is actively seeking salvation/absolution from a certain Biblical prophet/deity - who shall also remain unnamed - who is believed to bestow such things on actively dying people and prevent them from going to a certain Underworld known for fire and brimstone.

3. Said unnamed POTUS sought advice from certain unnamed Biblical fundamentalist/literalist religious figures who advised the POTUS that his best option to ensure eternal life in Paradise after death would be to initiate/unleash an "Armageddon" war in an unnamed part of the world known for religious conflict AND a lot of the world's energy resources.

4. The idea, albeit farcical and ridiculous, is that this Armageddon would trigger the Biblical Book of Revelations to manifest in real time, when the aforementioned Biblical prophet/deity would presumably return to the Earthly realm of mortal men and transport aforementioned POTUS up to Heaven.

A good day to you.

The End.

Progressive Change

It can be overwhelming, at times, to think about solving all the world's miriad problems. It may feel a bit like playing whack-a-mole. But perhaps that is an artifact of reductionist thinking, compartmentalizing life's myriad problems into separate problems to be solved with unique solutions for all of them.

What if the solution to MOST problems in the world was a much simpler algorithm? What if a global solution existed that minimized the inefficient work of trying to tackle every individual problem uniquely?

It turns out there is. 95% of the problems that impact your life can be solved by three things:

1. Daily aerobic exercise (30+ minutes, recommended). Anything that gets your heart rate up to about double your resting heart rate will benefit you mentally and physically.

2. Eating a whole food, plant based diet. This improves your health too, and has the added benefit of significantly reducing climate change (by about 75%) and washing away the sin of animal cruelty. You become more civic minded and compassionate.

3. Abstain from all social and most mainstream media. This is tough to do, but literally makes you smarter, happier, and more relaxed. Social and mainstream media have become toxic, vitriolic, and poisonous stuff.

You may be skeptical of the thesis of this post. So, the good news is...you can PUT IT TO THE TEST! Simply practice the above three things for about a month and see if you don't notice the positive changes. You can always go back to your old ways if you don't. But I happen to know for a fact that you will experience noticeable positive benefits within about two weeks. I encourage you to try it for a month though, just to confirm that those changes are genuine and lasting. You won't want to go back. But you can...

Take care!

Running for POTUS as an Independent

I no longer have any faith in political parties. They are destructive and limiting.

As such, I have decided to run for POTUS in 2028 as an Independent. I'll probably caucus with the Democrats, but if the GOP ever gets its collective head out of its ass, I might occasionally caucus with them. Maintaining INDEPENDENCE from a party affiliation gives me a lot more power and flexibility to do what's best for America without the limitations of party politics.

In subsequent posts, I'll outline my policy positions. But suffice to say they will all be good for America.

Thanks.
