An audio-visual journey through Marrakech. People say this is an ADHD city on steroids. I find it calm compared to Exeter on a Saturday morning. A crash course in situational awareness. Day 1 Just arrived. What’s happening. Disoriented to arrive in Marrakech at night. The place is a rabbit warren. Day 2 Eleven Twelve is…
You’re not the resistance. You’re not fighting oppression. You’re petty tyrants with Twitter accounts, cosplaying as revolutionaries whilst acting like the Spanish Inquisition. And the truly pathetic part? You genuinely believe you’re the good guys. Here’s what you actually are: ideological imperialists. You’ve decided your worldview is the only acceptable one, and anyone who deviates—even…
Whenever I go travelling, I have a strong desire to not lug a laptop around with me. In the early days of the internet, which for me was 1998, the idea of mobility and location independence was exciting. Finally liberated from being chained to a desktop computer, I could travel the world working from anywhere.…
I am using the IndieAuth wordpress plugin to see if I can post to this site from within IAWriter. If you see this post it worked. This is a headline Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aliquam massa dui, euismod sed consequat quis, laoreet eget neque. Nunc aliquam mauris at dolor dignissim, et…
You think your political ideology is the result of careful reasoning. Evidence considered, positions evaluated, and rational conclusions reached. What if it’s actually a dissociative response to a system that demands you abandon your body? Research shows a tough truth: rigid thinking is linked to emotional issues and dissociative symptoms. People aren’t flawed for having…
Let’s talk about ice baths. Amazon sales jumped from 1,000 to over 90,000 units in a single year. That’s not a health trend. That’s a gold rush built on marketing hype. Here’s what nobody wants to tell you: cold-water immersion is a health fraud. The entire industry rests on one claim: cold water reduces inflammation.…
Here’s your brain failing. Right now. This minute. You’re losing memory. Clarity. Energy. And most people do nothing until it’s too late. Dr. Kristen Willeumier, leading neuroscientist, has worked with NFL players and clients recovering from cognitive damage. She knows exactly how to reverse the decline through simple lifestyle changes—nutrition, supplements, movement, brain games. This…
You’ve never heard of it. Most people think it’s anarchism. Or autocracy. Some weird fringe thing that doesn’t matter. They’re wrong. Autarchism is the belief that you, and only you, should govern your life. No collective agreement. No voting for someone to decide for you. No committee meetings about what’s best for everyone. Just you.…
I cancelled another subscription last week. “I like my sovereignty,” I told them when they asked why. I’m done with cloud services. Done with subscriptions. Done with paying monthly to access my own stuff. I want to buy something once and own it. Like a book. Like a tool that doesn’t stop working when my…
Wake up at four in the morning and the last thing you need is your screen burning holes in your retinas. You want dark mode. The web doesn’t care what you want. Most websites ignore your dark mode settings completely. They serve up blinding white pages like it’s their job. Here’s how you fix it…
Back in my youth, when I protested against war, the placard would surely have read “drop acid, not bombs”. How times have changed.
I picked up Wispr Flow after seeing it used on one of Tiago Forte’s YouTube videos. I wasn’t expecting much, but within minutes I had cleared my inbox. I’ve been online a long time. One of the biggest challenges is dealing with the ever-increasing amount of email. I run a business where, rightly or wrongly,…
Every new Meta ad I start always gets abuse, hysterical diatribes against foraging. My default response when I am tired or just up for a fight is to throw back a few verbal punches. After all, these trolls are low-IQ, bottom-feeders. Too stupid to go beyond parroting sensationalist headlines they have read. There is zero…
Let’s get that straight from the start. Too many people confuse the two, like thinking a potluck and a soup kitchen are the same thing just because they both serve food. They’re not. One is people showing up with their best dish to share. The other is everyone getting the same bowl whether they like…
You start out writing a lean, beautiful horse, something with muscle, speed, and a clear direction. Then you ask for feedback, and suddenly everyone has an opinion. Your friend wants you to add more romance. Your cousin thinks you should ‘make it more commercial.’ The writing group suggests twelve different endings. Soon, your lean horse…
The CircleThe circle speaks of wholeness. It holds unity, inclusivity, and the freedom of the individual within the wider fabric of society. It reminds us that at its heart, libertarianism is not about left or right—but about the sovereign right of each person to live freely. The LineThe line is the path we walk. It…
At the end of the last century, when the Internet was young, only the frontier people lived there. Possibility Thinkers who saw the potential of this new digital land flocked to it in droves. I was one of those who joined the migration to this new world. And just like my compatriots, we didn’t wait…
