Who We Are

WHY
Ultimately, I enjoy spreading curiosity…and I would say for a mix of two reasons. Curiosity cannot only lead you to connection as you meet others who sincerely pursue truth…After all, you can’t really be looking at truth unless it actually connects you back to the rest of the world in some way to begin with.
HOW
The way in which I go about doing all of these things is with Foolosophy for maintaining my own Peace of Mind, and Light Trolling for frosting enjoyable and engaging relationships with others…this amounts to a blend of Philosophy, Psychology, Science, and shenanigans.
WHAT
I do things like sit in my Foolosophy room weekday afternoons, doing things like asking people the 5 Stupid Questions, or I take field trips to other echo chambers to study other Bad Ideas… I also like having even deeper discussions with more sincere people like we’re doing Here and Now. And I try to do a healthy dose of brainwashing after a day of fooling around trying to get Good Work done.

WHY
Life involves pain, but suffering is optional. The end of suffering is not the end of suffering, but seeing suffering for what it is. The human condition touches all, and healing comes with the recognition of reality and seeing our stories within it. Growth and regeneration can be found by losing oneself in the service of others.
HOW
Kindness, humour in good faith and listening to others goes a long way. Meeting others and the world in the moment. Listening to others as yourself. Virtue and cultivation of virtue is key.
WHAT
I write and read. I draw and design. I go online and chat and listen to find healing with others.
