  • A Screed: Someday I Feel I Must Be Dictator of America To Right This Ship

    |
    Updated at

    America is directionless. A government so weak as to allow corporate power to dominate its ranks. A government so weak that it's people believe in conspiracies and lies. A country so utterly directionless that people feel the need to join cults and put their belief in people who offer them nothing. This is why billionaires are swimming in government bending it to their will. THE PATH AMERICA IS HEADED IS TOWARDS OLIGARCHY, A SECOND GILDED AGE!

    A government exists to support the people it governs through mean...

  • Life Requires You to Throw Darts, Bullseye

    Updated at

    "You miss all the shots you don't take." It's true.

    When you think about it, how did you get to where you are? It's not something you could reason about in anyway to reproduce what got you there. Good things happen, bad things happen that's because you throw darts even when you don't know it.

    You getting into this world is a result of chance. Many sperm don't make it to the egg and many eggs don't get fertilized. The chance of even getting to the point where sperm can even have a chance to have the chance of ...

  • I Can Report Travel Insurance is Worth, Amex Travel Insurance Anyway

    They covered the entire medical bill in Japan. 100% worth it.

    Though an International onsite doctor (he was a doctor in America at one point) didn't cost as much as an American doctor in an American Big City one would cost, so there is that.

  • 2025 Plans: Something new, Something different

    Updated at

    2024 was just ok. Only released two applications multi platform. I wanted to release 3 applications at least with 2 games out at least. Shifting priorities and distractions led to only two applications. Ugh, ok. Better than 2023 at least.

    2025 is more release financial oriented applications, one game and one lifestyle application. Both applications are backend server oriented, so these will be the first applications I release on mobile that contact a backend and have subscription plans. (pikachu shocked face...

    Again, America's Healthcare System sucks. He blamed insurance, but why the F does it cost so much to go through what so many others have gone through? Healthcare costs significantly outpace inflation. That's not just caused by insurance. It's greed in the healthcare system. Greed from counter parties. The same greed that destroyed Boeing and Intel. They all deserve a message to stop the raping and pillaging of people.

  • Life Related Age Milestones Are Unnecessary

    |
    Updated at

    The idea of needing to be married, have a house, have kids by a certain age is unrealistic and idealistic right now. These kinds of expectations give people something to measure their life by, but why? In the past, sure this made sense given the relative closeness in price things were, but now there are big price differences with regard to each.

    Marriage requires commitment, respect and money. Diamonds ain't getting any cheaper. A house especially on the coastal states is unreachable for the typical and it g...

  • America Has A Trash Healthcare System. FYI

    |
    Updated at

    No matter what about insurance, the healthcare system is part of the problem. Given my experience with it where I was clearly suffering where my body clearly was showing signs of suffering, you could measure oddities, but you had doctors who wanted it to be "anxiety" or some psychological issue of unknown origin. You even had one trying to argue with me about it while clearly distressed. Total Fucking Morons. Total Fucking Psychos. Learn to admit when you are just fucking flummoxed and push your terrible at...

  • So I Went to Tokyo, Japan

    Updated at

    Unexpectedly longer than I planned. It was different. I went to a super good hotel and super good area. Met random people from online. Visited a proper temple not the usual tourist area. Tried quite of bit of restaurants.

    There were a mix of random people, definitely not people I would've met otherwise. You never know how random people are going to be, so I'm glad there were no super high energy people. Trouble follows those kinds which I don't want nor desire.

    I got to do impromptu Japanese/English Karaoke ...

  • The More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same. Profits Above People.

    Updated at

    People have zero fu*ks left to give that's why "Billionaire CEO assassinated" means nothing. Hell when people hear it was a Healthcare Insurance CEO, negative fucks to give. They show active hostility, not even like don't know the guy, don't care, no energy spent caring, they'll spend energy showing hate towards a guy they've never heard of.

    New York City's heavily surveilled and they can't catch this guy? Cops must have been screwed by United Health Care among the others too.

    It's something that's never chan...

  • Presentation Skills Certainly Matter If You Want Excitement

    |
    Updated at

    I mean this speaks for itself:

    It's so drab and boring. The products/solutions getting named before you even know why you care about it. Wtf is this? Does Satya even care about what he's presenting here? Time to step down, it looks like.

    The tried and tested way and certainly Apple does it well is to talk about the problem, the pain point to get the audience to feel something memorable, familiar even. Then at times add in "what if you could do ..." then name your solution and finally talk more about the solu...
