On The Psychology Of The Incel

Modern culture offers everyone a role to play, a mask to wear, a game to stumble through. But the incel is a reaction to an alienating culture; his role is one that has been imposed on him by his so called limited biological capabilities. He finds himself torn—alienated from

On LGBTQ: Inquiry I

Once upon a time people ushered their dreams of sexual liberation into the zeitgeist. Mostly in cultures and societies that deemed it tyrannical and faulty. There has been a wide unlocking of these chains that inhabit most western threads of democracy and since the 80's gay rights movement

Actors As Antinomies. Hollywood As Simulacrum.

Hollywood has devised a new form of kinesics that can never be truly replicated in the real world. In the application of these patterns, we have invented new modern ideals tailored only to the body. This is modern material spiritualism, chained to the body. Why do we ignore the facts

The Immaturity Of Our Modern Awareness.

Begin, First let me define what I mean by Immaturity. Immaturity as the conscious action of accepting all conscious contents—thoughts, feelings, pain thresholds, and comfort barriers—as immovable, yet distinguishable from one's experience of identity. Are we born balanced, and does interaction with the world simply remove

Modernity Is Inducing Psycho-phonological and Nonsensical Claims Regarding Receptive Language and LGBTQ as Posteriori.

Somewhere within our self-conscious ability to perceive our own presence, fused with an understanding of our universal and personal linguistic capabilities, we have resurrected the spirit of the penologist as we navigate the modern world. Our gaze, now predatory and charged, wanders hopelessly, turning on itself. What once our consciousness

A LOOK INTO CANCEL CULTURE AND ITS INDICATIONS

Cancel culture? The prognosis for a serious issue. We must take note of this occurrence in the world; it is useful to look at this as an insight into the modern world as it unfolds. What does it mean for people to be "cancelled" for expressing opinions? They

THE PSYCHODRAMA OF THE PSYCHEDELIC TRIP.

What is the power that lies in the contents of a natural, space time shifting medicinally tailored substance like psilocybin mushroom? Why does it grant human beings experiences that alter the individuals mind, once and for all immediately after it has passed through the blood? To start, I want to

INVESTIGATING IMITATION I

Imitation, the grain of the imagination, the thread between soul play and the demonstration of one's shared existence. We mark our identity in repetitive bodily laws that are objectively for more eyes than our own. We are bounded by the solo principle, in that we must pass through

SUBMISSION TO THE CHANNELS OF LIFE

Suffering is nothing more than the greatest of guides. It is in pain that we find the treasure, the fruit, the bell, the light, the sword, the love. Whatever the finding is that you acquire in your trembling agony, however you wish to name this sacred discovery, through whichever channels

Marlboro vs Camel, Which packs for you?

I've left smoking behind, but I've sampled my fair share of quality cigarette brands over the years. Back in my teenage days, my buddy and I would hit up the local tobacconist, grabbing three different packs and spending the day puffing away as we roamed the

WHY YOU CANT FIGHT OPPRESSION THROUGH ART

Art touches us in ways we cannot see, touch, or hear. It reaches us subtly and dangerously. It brings changes to our hearts and minds; it can influence our reason and logic if applied astutely. It can deliver us from pain into peace and drop us off at the gates

THE PROBLEM WITH MODERNITY

As the individual is exposed to vast networks of expression which surround him at every angle and point on the lower grounded reality, he is disturbed and disrupted by these psychic channels that come from shared similarities in the collective consciousness. He is untrusting to the nature of these intervals

Never be afraid to face the weight of modernity; it may not be entirely your fault why you feel so poor inside. I stand by this; I believe the world is screwing us. The world is disastrous; people are confused. Our identities are facing the sword of fragmentation, and this

I am a person who can blend in among the material, the chemical, and the hidden. I would describe myself as a loud wind that brings with it peace and ambience but is deadly enough to destroy anything in its wake. I try not to keep myself preoccupied in the
