Sixty Percent the Speed of Dark

However you arrived here; by whatever sequence of bored, glazed eyed scrolling, alluring little pop-ups, irresistible link clicks and other assorted dopamine triggers, you are in the wrong place! So just tap that back button right now. Go on, get out of here. Keep moving. This is not your next little distraction, short lived salvation, little diversion or next desperate footfall in the race to maintain a safe distance from the whatevers, whoevers and howevers that are lurking in the darkness at the edge of your conscious mind; that, once acknowledged and allowed in will most likely eat you alive. Because they are as voracious as you are desperate for your next distraction, which you will not find here.There is absolutely nothing here for you to consume. This will not confer on you any special knowledge or shred of insight that you can later use to impress your friends. There are no recipes, prescriptions, rules, guidelines or clever little aphorisms that you can dutifully incorporate into your reality only to later bend, break or otherwise completely abandon. You will find nothing in this offering to dissect, analyze, categorize, classify or pass judgment on.Go stumble eyes wide shut over your next oh-ah adventure somewhere, some-when else. Go read a glowing review of someone else's creation. Are you really so desperate for some little nugget of advice or wisdom to satiate you until your next dopamine craving? Fine, here it is. Diligently read through as many top ten best-of lists that you can find. They don’t have to have anything in common except that they are top tens. Do that all day, every day for months and even years on end until you eventually become an expert about the best of everything on this planet with the accent on “thing”. Congratulations, you will have arrived back exactly where you started. Depressing? Good, than go away.“No one can construct for you the bridge upon which precisely you must cross the stream of life, no one but you yourself alone.”― Friedrich Nietzsche Read more
