The Holographic Universe
Stranded in a Sea of Insanity
Being fully awake in a global lunatic asylum is enough to make a person go insane. It feels like I’m stranded on an isolated island with a handful of traumatized survivors, surrounded by a sea of sadomasochists, homicidal maniacs and delusional cult members.

Presidential Election 2012: Analysis From a Space Alien
In this article I am going to present a rather unique way of interpreting the recent election results. I’m going to present them from the point of view of a space alien philosopher. I’m choosing to use this point of view because it is completely disconnected from any cultural programming. I want you to think...
