I'm not much for eating oysters, but these are the kind of leaders we really need. People with the will and means to inspire real, practical hope in our future. These are the "first movers" who really matter, those with the v

The Americas are just as old, it is just that people in their arrogance have chosen to overlook the works and achievements of Mesoamerican civilization. History did not begin with the arrival of the Europeans, that is just when colonization

The intersection of social media and mental health debates is a nightmare zone. Social media itself has already evolved into something monstrous. The most I can do is boycott these companies. It's not like the typical means of communic

Amazon really strives to push the boundaries of what is inhuman and unnatural. There have got to be some sick people who enjoy this sort of thing. Any sort of large company that employs actual slave labor through the American prison system
