How do you navigate this crazy world?

You put your trust in governments, universities, employers. Each let you down.

we need a multi-pronged approach to fixing the male loneliness epidemic

one tactic i suggest–entertaining yourself via the random texters trying to scam everyone

ignoring them ain’t working, so you might as well have some fun

y’all, my writer brain is ON-

one of last night’s silly sketches evolved into an idea for a children’s book, a genre i’ve shown no interest in

time to figure this thing out if for nothing more than the sake of neuroplasticity!
