Today I explore emotionality, concern, simulation, and disagreeableness.

Are people way more emotional about everything than they should be? Am I, on the other hand, not emotional enough?

Currently pondering this notion of social media posturing, which put another way… could be labeled as “virtue signaling”. How much of what transpires in the world is genuinely your concern?  Should you be MORE concerned about things than you are?  Should you be LESS concerned? What’s really doing YOU any good? What’s really doing THE WORLD any good?

A random thought re: the potential enjoyment factor of watching a simulation of my life. Fascinating? Boring? Hmm.

These days I can only agree with any one person a maximum of about 30-50%. Speaking to myself… why are you so disagreeable?

 

Why are you so disagreeable?

Rediscovering the joy of sketchbooking. Realizing this may be the best means of communicating my thoughts & feelings without OFFENDING 80% of people I know. Thinking to myself... why are you so disagreeable?

Tyler Burgett

A change of pace today... as I interview Tyler Burgett... a fellow ex-Christian with a nuanced (and ever-evolving) world view and passion for finding common ground with others. Yes, not all atheists are militant!

Tommy Danger got COVID!

Tommy Danger is BACK... and this time, with COVID! Let's hear his first-hand account of getting COVID... how it all went down, and thoughts/reflections in the aftermath.

Give and Take

Today let's discuss the GIVE & TAKE selfless/selfish spectrum. Consider your relationships, job, religion, location, hobbies, education and pretty much every aspect of your life... are you putting more into it than you're getting out of it?

Money

Sometimes I wonder what people think about money. And I wonder whether my views on it are anything like what others’ views are on it. I mean obviously there’s a presupposition that we ALL want MORE money, and yet… (play Mo Money, Mo Problems). And this is what I want to get into today… basically how we evaluate money… what it is, and what it means to us. Also... this whole NFT craze... and how it may shape our society moving forward.

Society sketch

Today I sketched out my situation and trajectory in society. Believe it or not, it's actually quite sensible. Might do a podcast episode on it at some point, but would be highly controversial.

Before Sunset

Got emotional watching "Before Sunset" late Wednesday night, so decided to do an impromptu recording with thoughts on the film, but also what led me to want to watch it in the first place. Plus reflections on my romantic history and serious doubts about any romantic future.

Ramblin’ man

Yet another ramble sesh that I entered into with no topic or title in mind, so uhh... let's go with RAMBLIN' MAN. Lord I was born this way... tryin' to make a livin' and doin' the best I can.

Mass Psychosis

A mass psychosis is an epidemic of madness and it occurs when a large portion of a society loses touch with reality and descends into delusions. Such a phenomenon is not a thing of fiction. Two examples of mass psychoses are the American and European witch hunts 16th and 17th centuries and the rise of totalitarianism in the 20th century.

Censorship

Irina Chan Rich

Wow, it's an Introversion podcast episode ACTUALLY ABOUT INTROVERSION! Yep, listen in as my guest Irina Chan Rich and I discuss all the nuances of the introverted life.

An episode has no name.

A bit of an experiment this time around... perhaps the first time I've ever recorded/posted an episode without having a title or specific concept for me to focus on. So brace yourself... this one's a pure tangential ramblefest!

Respect

I respect your right to believe whatever you want. But I don’t have to respect your thought process (or lack thereof) that led you to believe what it is you believe.

Intentionality

It's the first solo episode of 2021! Yep, it's been a while. The follow-up to "2020: Hindsight" is finally here... where I discuss my theme for 2021 (INTENTIONALITY) and what's been going on since December 2020.

My departure from faith

Just a little snippet of the overall story of my departure from faith... an acknowledgement of cosmic nothingness... the absence of something I wished was there.

What better way to kick off the return of the Introversion podcast than an interview with my good buddy, fellow podcaster, & recurring guest... Tommy Danger. As usual, we hit a lot of topics.

God vs evil

Do you hear what I hear?

Beware of people who only hear what they want to hear... who then go so far as to call that the Truth (with a capital T).

Self interest

It is GOOD to look out for your own interests. Anyone telling you otherwise is most likely putting their self-interests above yours.

My good old friend Brian R. is back on the podcast… and we delve into the issues of the day: the 2020 election, pandemic, NWO and The Great Reset, sipping Kool-aid, media bias, censorship, and it would be remiss of us to not address the phenomenon of TDS (Trump Derangement Syndrome), for which sadly there is no cure.

Prayer logic

If your logic is to believe in a god because he "answered" your prayer (this time)... ["answered" meaning you got your desired outcome]... the same logic would have you NOT believing in a god if he DIDN’T answer your prayer.

Election Week

Election Day turns into Election WEEK. Would you expect any less of 2020? Well... it's all over now. Or is it?
