Dream Unity

It's high time we civilize the divine comedy that is the Western World. The action nerd must rise from the bottle-strewn hovels of obscurity and shine the light of reason on our time. We need cerebral celebrities, heroes that fight villains plotting to circumvent checks and balances to make money from blood. The internet makes it work; when you can look at all of the world in a minute, an appreciation for variety in the human experience is inevitably acquired. Our ideas can't all be good, but with so many words screaming to be seen, we former hunters can't help but see patterns and make connections. --Three sentence manifesto v1 History is being made. The internet brings us a quorum. The action nerds will herald true democracy

Flipping through an old journal, one will sometimes find a page which forces them to question, "am I clever or an asshole?"

About

Until Raymond Carver can write my biography, this will have to do: In the Navy because I didn't know what to do after high school in Tualatin and I felt like as futureless as I was friendless, dragged by a train near Chicago, worked at a hospital near Seattle, lost my medical benefits in an angry sea of red tape, lost all my friends, got suckered into moving to Portland 5 years ago by a crazy ex-nicaraguan army pathological liar and phone fraudster who stole most of my material posessions, funded a homeless drinking binge on credit by a prophetic vision, sobered up and aged, realized I probably wasn't going to die really soon, declared bankruptcy, worked at a few call-centers, made some goals, started going back to college and hoping to make the world a better place. Yeah, and some other stuff happened too.
