My liver’s perfect. My kidneys are divine. My glucose is… a little dramatic. We’re waiting on more tests. And I’m being very brave about it.

Not Everything Is Simple. (Except Me—I’m Perfect.)

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

What a legend.

When You're Bored, You're Being Shaped.

Boredom isn’t the absence of stimulation. It’s a test. Of what you reach for. Of what you default to.

Getting a job no one cares about.

Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.

But as a kind of freedom.

Until an organized, orchestrated, all-out war against the financial interests of these sociopaths is spear-headed, they will continue their war against freedom & decency. Drunk with the illusion of power and misbegotten wealth, they are like a pile of dung on the shoe of humanity. We can crush these people simply and easily -- by turning away from our fixation on politics as a solution and to laser focus on what Ludwig Von Mises called "Human Action", which is also the title of one of the gr…

I agree, they need to be cut off! And this isn't the first time capitalism has attempted to enslave this country either! Our Government never did have a knack for balancing capitalism and you can't have a free market and capitalist/republic without some restraints to prevent monopoly's. Jesse James and the other restraints died long ago and the two political party's have been lap dancing the capitalists ever since! Just so happens its the Democrats turn and they have plans for us...
