It takes time for people to understand what they're doing wrong. But just because they have a circus doesn't mean I have to buy tickets. And I certainly won't expose my children to something that I don't think has their best interests at heart. We don't need to be "fixed".

Trolls don’t have to win. I’m learning to flip their comments into lessons — sometimes for me, sometimes for everyone. It’s not about perfection, it’s about being real and showing how even negativity can turn into growth.

Why did America embrace McCarthyism? It wasn’t stupidity—it was fear. Fear of spies, fear of losing our new identity, fear of weakness. Fear made paranoia look like patriotism. #History #McCarthyism #ColdWar #FearPolitics #CriticalThinking

Performance art as resistance. From Berlin’s smoky cabarets to glam rock and modern drag, makeup and costume have always been tools to challenge power and blur the lines fascism demands.

In 1978, Queen recorded one of the happiest songs ever written. But Don’t Stop Me Now wasn’t just a party — it was a snapshot of Freddie Mercury at full speed. Joy and danger, tangled together in one unforgettable performance.

A song about storms, danger, and love - and the final message Jim Morrison left behind. Some storms never end... but love is how we make it through.

Aristotle nailed persuasion 2,000 years ago — and we’re still using his playbook. Pathos emotion logos logic, ethos credibility can win debates, sway juries, and shape policy. Master all three, and you’ll be heard anywhere

If you want your message to land, skip the empty drama. Lead with a fact everyone can agree on, connect it to the bigger issue, and make it personal. Look up pathos, logos, ethos — and sharpen your approach.

I love a good brain tickler. A statement that you can say that is both simple and confusing and deeply profound. Things that make you stop, or the things that bother you at 3:00 a.m. on a Tuesday for no reason.

how do other people learn? how do other people intake new information? I'm finding that getting people to accept new information can sometimes clash with their identity, their core being their view of the world. and they're not always able to absorb truth when that truth clashes with their identity.

Knowledge is just a hallucination routine that you run to understand the world. Sometimes that routine gets out of date and doesn't work anymore.
