TFS 8 – Feng Shui, O and A Origins, and talking Talking Heads


As I swing in right after a major organizational effort I introudce Mr. Money Moustache’s concept of hedonic adaptation somewhat (eh..) accurately. I then go on to discuss the participation trophy trope and how puzzlingly popular it remains among right wing blowhards. I then launch into a wholesale investigation of blowhards (ok I’m giving myself too much credit but I get a good peek into the world of hot air) and blowhardiness in general.

Who the fuck cares what Joe Rogan is reading?

TFS 6 – Canned Experience, Language and Inclination, You are the “Audience”


HD and beyond bring a level of immersion that destroys a barrier we might have been better off keeping. Do world languages shape cultures and the capacities of the people that comprise those cultures. When creating for an audience remember that the audience is really your own conceptions. Don’t worry too much about pleasing your own conceptions. Your audience will thank you.

TFS 5 – No one respects your time, Timing Out, and other Temporal Woes


A mess with wine stained lips (and something in his teeth: it’s suggested you just listen and forego looking at the disaster)   sits too close to the camera and prattles about the following:

Nobody respects your time as an artist – nobody respects your time period – you don’t respect your time

Benefits of making topical YouTube videos (maybe everybody should do it)

Am I too much of a grouch about popular shows like Walking Dead and Game of Thrones

Probably Not – (See: Saw Movies)

Back when I was younger I somewhat considered doing standup way way waaaaaaaaay back in the back of my mind

I’m thirty years old should I start now?

Considering I’m not really funny probably not but still it’s a fun question this age cap thing

My thirty something male friends freaking out about their love lives/futures cause they’ve had a shitty marriage etc…it is to laugh

There’s two types of creators in this instant info world – ones who are reticent due to actual professionalism and ones that do so to cultivate a sense of mystery that keeps audiences guessing

examine: being real vs being cool/put together

TFS ~ Beer is Healthy! – The Economy Ain’t?! – Muh Russia… (Vlog)


TFS (The Fractal Standard) is a daily show that I decided to launch today.

Summary

Beer contains a wide variety of helpful things. Things like the bitter acid, humulone, which offers hope for fighting respiratory infections. Bitter acids are also generally known for anti-inflammatory effects.

In other news there is only a 7% correlation between GDP and the S&P 500! We’re literally running on hot air! But it’s working? For now…?

So, I’m just chillin listening to some Rogan pocast and boom suddenly Russia is an epicenter of pessimism!

I, of course must respond, as the sheer volume and frequency of random fingerwagging and ignorance, towards my country of origin grows exponentially!

Hugh J Lee even!

Variety Show – Mission Trips, Citizenship, and Uncanny Existence


Lack musical ability? Tune to DADGAD and play pentatonic shapes! You too can sound like a bayou mystic!

In this video I discuss a really neat thing somebody did for people and how we can do an even greater thing for the world by being informed citizens.

Then I prattle on a bit about the problems with appeals to emotion and how they obfuscate the truth. I drive the point home by citing the Dhayan airstrike in which US bombs were used by the Saudis to kill 40 children under 15 years old. A citation made to contrast the moral preening on display as regards US vs Soleimani.

I finish up with a ramble about the ucannines of reality and why the hell is everything just so?

Demons Hate Citrus

File:Orange-Fruit-Pieces.jpg
Satan’s Greatest Enemy

According to a dream I had last night: the way to defeat freaky pale ghost bitches that crawl out from where the walls meet the floor is to squeeze an orange on the cunts.

Me and my mates slayed hundreds of them with Florida fresh goodness in my mind theater just hours ago.

These are the visions that kept me out of the really good schools.


Help me stock up on vitamin C rich ammo!
