Two steps ahead. I am always two steps ahead. This has been the greatest social experiment I've come to know. Certainly the greatest social experiment of my entire life. It's... alluring. It's compelling. It's gripping. To bear witness, to observe all these unwell, unbalanced, disoriented beings roam the internet in search of stories. In search of ideas, of conflict, of rivalries, where people develop a distinctive desire for direct engagement. Where people feel involved with the stories, and therefore become product of influence. Thirsty for distraction from time unspent, from lackluster livestyles. Spoiling their minds while stimulating them at the exact same time. It's brilliant. But it's also dangerous. It's dangerous. I feel as if my life has been positioned to where I am monitoring ants on an ant farm. One follows another follows another follows another. It's mesmerizing. It's enthralling, it's spellbinding. Just look at all these consumers. All of these lost and bored people. Consuming anything that they're told to consume. I am the villain. But I make myself one. And people will consume these stories year after year after year. Stories that, stories that shock, that confuse. Stories that are deliberately made to blur the boundaries between fact and fiction. Stories that permeate, infect, and linger in the minds of the ants. Influence the ants. Brainwash the ants. You are the ant. I woke up this morning to money deposited into my account. For simply not doing something. For simply not going through... with something. People are the most fucked up creatures on this planet. And you will continue to consume. And I'll continue to be two steps ahead. Today, I thought it would be a splendid idea to go out and get some food and film it for you. Gee, are you surprised? Have you forgotten the story? Are you not paying attention? After all, you're here to consume, are you not?

do u have a message for 25 year olds

uhhhhh 2 bagels?

I’m 32. When I was in my early twenties, I overheard a pair of 50ish year old women talking about the ideal age to stay at permanently. One said, “Everyone says 25. I wouldn’t want to be in my twenties forever. Everything is hard and you get upset too easily.”

Hearing her say that helped me so much. I thought about it countless times. Every time things felt overwhelming, I remembered what she said. The words of this total stranger, who wasn’t even talking directly to me, brought me a lot of comfort, so I hope they can help you, too.
