The Goal Of Thy Enemy
I believe that every leader should study war theory... Not because I'm an advocate for war... I believe that war should be avoided and only used as a last resort in situations where the opposition refuses to see the world in alternative ways...

What If Reality Has Layers We Rarely Name
Most of the time, life is navigated as though everything that matters is already visible. We respond to what happens, explain what we can see, and make sense of events based on what appears most immediate. This approach feels grounded and practical. It keeps reality manageable. But it also raises a quiet question that rarely gets explored directly: what if the most influential parts of reality are not the ones we notice first.

What If Outcomes Are Only the Surface
It’s natural to judge life by outcomes. We look at what people do, how things turn out, what succeeds, what fails, what appears healthy, and what collapses. Outcomes are visible. They give the impression of clarity. When something goes wrong, we search for the moment it happened. When something goes right, we look for the decisive action that made the difference. But what if this instinct keeps us focused on the least informative part of the story.

Making Peace Without Resolution. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
For a long time, many people believe life will eventually explain itself. That if they keep moving, enduring, and making reasonable choices, there will be a moment—clear, unmistakable—when things finally make sense. A moment when effort aligns with outcome, when confusion resolves into clarity, when the story feels complete.

Choosing to Stay Without Calling It a Dream. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
Most lives are not built through dramatic choices. They are built through quiet ones. Not the kind that feel decisive in the moment, but the kind that repeat themselves daily—until they harden into a life. You stay in a job that does not inspire you but does not endanger you. You remain in a place that feels familiar rather than meaningful. You maintain routines that keep things functioning, even if they no longer make you feel alive.

I Prefer Making Longer YouTube Videos for My Horror Channel
I have learned something about myself during my YouTube journey so far in 2026. I think I like to work on longer videos for the channel. I recently finished uploading my longest YouTube video, that took about two hours to edit and publish on YouTube. I also had a lot of fun making the thumbnail for the video, because I did not want to use a random picture that had already been uploaded to Google by someone that most likely made it.

The Self That Remains When No One Is Watching. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
At some point in adulthood, the audience disappears. Not dramatically. Not all at once. It happens quietly. People stop asking about your plans. Achievements receive polite acknowledgment instead of excitement. Your struggles are assumed to be manageable. Your inner life becomes largely invisible—not because it is unimportant, but because it no longer fits into casual conversation.

Staying While Slowly Becoming Alone. Content Warning. AI-Generated.
Loneliness in adulthood rarely arrives through abandonment. More often, it arrives while everyone is still present. You still have people in your life. You still respond to messages. You still attend gatherings when required. From the outside, nothing appears broken. Yet internally, something has thinned. Conversations no longer reach depth. Emotional exchange feels procedural. Connection exists, but intimacy does not.
