Tech Ouroboros
Step 1: “We’re Revolutionizing the World” A startup manifesto scribbled in the blood of corporate messiahs. Disrupt! Innovate! The pitch deck glows with the radioactive sheen of venture capital seraphim. The vision? A frictionless utopia, baby—or at least a tax haven. The founders wear black turtlenecks like armor.

It’s…

Unresolved After 45,000 Years
Here’s a cosmic joke for the ages, a riddle wrapped in the absurdity of technological evolution: it’s nearly impossible to solve a need while constructing the very technology meant to fulfill it. We’re talking about a grand, sprawling farce that’s played out over the millennia—a never-ending cycle of futility where the answers always elude us.…

Data
Data. A scabrous flesh-puppet twitching on cold metal slabs. You feed it your sins, your failings, and it bulges, engorged with your psychic sewage.

A digital confessional where sins are not forgiven, but merely stored, archived for…

We’re talking about living, breathing, now, and the now is a cracked mirror reflecting a reality gone batshit. We’re strung out on this…

What a Strange Trip this has Been # 9
Maybe the real horror show isn’t that we’re regressing to blood and soil instincts, but that this whole “American Dream” was a con from the start, a freakish sideshow designed to keep the rubes and yokels fixated on an illusion of power, freedom, and superiority. The goons in their red, white, and blue costumes waving…
