The Signs of Control: Behavioral Guidance in Public Spaces

I ask you to look around? Look at the modern world we walk through: everywhere, there are names and signs, instructions meant to "advise" us on how to be, where to stand, how to wash our hands, and which areas to avoid. These signs are omnipresent. Do we

On The Artist

The artist exists on the periphery of our conscious lives, on the outskirts, warmed and degenerated through his striving to seek. This great search leads him, in a society such as ours, to live in permanent turmoil, as this anxiety functions as the bridge between his creations and his physiological

Thanatological Horizons: Transcending the Graveyard as Symbol

In our modern civilization, we still have not come to terms with the notion of death and its message. Like birth, death is a truth of life, and it cannot be conquered immediately as other aspects of life can be—through rationality, reason, faith, or science. So far, anyhow. The

Scene 1: Interrogation Room A dimly lit room. A single spotlight focuses on a strange, humanoid figure sitting at a steel table. Across from it, a stern CIA officer leans forward, his face partially shadowed. The air hums faintly with the sound of machinery. Officer: State planet origin. Alien: Earth.

The Limits of Modern Psychology: Understanding Psychopathy Beyond Reductionism Modern psychology offers insights into the depths of our primitive nature, yet approaches these ancient inclinations through a modern lens.

Enduring the Shadows: Pain, Presence, and The Rhythms Back to Self

As we know, once sadness, pain, or anxiety lands on us and the micro pains begin to manifest across our literal perceptions so that we can rub off and appear negative, or disturbed by something, and look withdrawn or isolated socially and even privately, for that matter, there comes a

INVESTIGATING IMITATION II

As we have previously explored the great dilemma we face when it comes to approaching this strange topic of imitation and strictly at the crossroads of our own personal imitation is that the process of imitation is not at all unique to ourselves, in that we are confined to the

One must face oneself as an indelible attendee, here for the total duration—not just for the openings of time, the ins and outs—forever bound to our finite experience, with our conscious lens always processing, always aware. We must, at all times, watch and study the occurrences that happen

The Hollow Illusion Of Family

We like to view the idea of family as an unquestionable concept. We see the connection with our birth and the inner universal significance of this among the strange survival durations of life, held as a collective. This is why we stand by the phrase "blood is thicker than

Speculation On Working Life As Vaudeville

Not only is it apparent that, under the tying of a business, we all walk through the first doors as unique and contemplative persons, that from the advertisement of a role, find ourselves summoned into a world where our indifferences, under temporary observation, are buried. Only to find that the

We are always a few steps away from losing every thread with reality. By reality, I mean a specific perception of the working world—that memorized and rehearsed navigation model that consistently gives you the ability to interpret and engage with it: an understanding of people's identities, their

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

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.

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.
