Twenty-one years. Just under 700,000 views on this site in all that time — a rounding error, and I've stopped pretending otherwise. Almost no replies either; I took my email address down years ago and never put it back up.
None of that is the point.
I keep this blog for the exhilaration of setting down the unvarnished truth as I see it, and for the essays, poems, and musings of a handful of deeply observant, cogent minds the world has decided not to hear.
One thing has stayed with me since childhood: question authority, and go find the truth for yourself. I've been called rude, radical, unrealistic, and a good many things less printable. But when you know what you know, you know it. None of those labels ever put the fire out.
Every piece here is chosen with care. If it isn't felt, it isn't posted. That rule isn't a filter — it is the message. To post is to stand as witness: I will not let this pass unmarked.
The self-effacement has been doctrinally consistent from the very beginning. I don't monetize. I don't make myself known. I do almost nothing this American culture prizes.
So what's it all for?
To wake people from the daze.
Peace and love to you all.
