We Are All Playing Status Games / Costly Signaling Theory / Ending Situationships

-
 What is going on, people? So honestly, it has been a wild week. I am currently in a cold war with my landlord. No one has fired the first missile, but we both have our own version of nukes. Whomever fires the first shot is doomed. Regardless, I hope the war can end shortly so we can go about our business, and we can get out of this apartment, and she can do the major renos she is hoping for. What I have been reading up on a lot is the fact of status. As someone who was never raised with a lot of money but also really never gave a shit regarding status, for those who know, there were those YMCMB shirts that people would wear back in the day or a Louis Vuitton douche canoe belt. I can personally say I never gave a crap about that stuff. Something about it signalled that you were disgusting, and I should take three paces back and quickly make an exit. That said, my views have evolved more and more as I have gotten older. From the Rolex watch, a Vera Wang suit, to an Hermès bag, the s...

The Rise of Over Rationality, What BooBoo’s have taught me

-
 My Fiancé loves these dam things called boo-boo’s which for the unknowing men they are a stuffed animal/ hard plastic toy with a menacing grin on them.

On a purely rational basis they look like tiny figurines that have a face and smile akin to a clinically insane person lighting your house on fire yet still we have seen them have a historic rise?

A Long Way Here > Give Yourself A Try

-
Took Long Enough   Here I was the ripe old age of 29 and finally had figured out who I was and wanted to be. The sands of time had finally showed themselves enough where I was pushed to listen one way or another I was going to die.  Trite wisdom this was as I am not saying anything new, however I am on earth during the epicentre of distraction from this fact. From social media and everyone having a phone in their pocket life has gotten complex.  I wish more understood that this all ends all your fears, worries sadness and happiness won't matter in 100 years. Won't potentially matter in 60 depending how old you are. Life lived understanding this fact seems worthy.  This blog will be an account of my raw unedited thoughts. This means no censorship no AI every single word has been and will be written by me. I am not afraid to be forward in how I feel however if I say something you disagree with know that I hold all strong opinions lightly and constantly change my mind....
