Hello, all!
I know that most introductions happen upon ones initial arrival, and I’ve already made a few posts. So, why bother now? Well, I’ve always marched to the beat of a different drum, and that’s just how I roll. As to why I took so long to introduce myself; well, truth be told, I haven’t been quite sure what to say... I’m not exactly sure what type of content I’m going to be putting up on this site. And who I am, and what I’m about are two major parts of introducing one’s self.
Even though I’m still not quite sure what direction this page of mine is going to take, my sudden decision to post this is rooted in the fact that I just may have quit my job this week. “May have quit?” I hear you say. “You either quit or you don’t. And if you just stop showing up your employer will decide for you.” Well, I’m a private contractor... I work as a courier and I pretty much work as I feel like doing. I call the dispatcher and see what they have, and if it’s a run I’m interested in I take the job.
If you’re wondering why I’m talking in terms of “quitting” this job, I’d have to say it’s more a case of the job trying to quit me. Over the past couple of months, the Universe has been dropping none-too-subtle clues that I belong on a different track. It had gotten so bad at one point, that one week, not a day went by that something didn’t go catastrophically wrong with my vehicle. I had decided then, that I needed to find a new path; but, once I “righted my keel”, so to speak, and got back on stable footing, I soon forgot all about taking a new course of action. But the Universe is kind and patient; and if you disregard its heeding it will remind you again, in an increasingly assertive fashion. So, the transmission on my vehicle just decided to dump fluid all down the Blue-Route as I was driving home in rush-hour traffic.
(Why do they call it “rush-hour”? It’s impossible for you to rush, and it can last for up to three to seven hours.)
So, here I am... having a go at this. It will be my first real foray into social media; I have a saying “Facebook is the devil”. The only reason I even have a Facebook account to begin with, is somebody else set one up for me; and I haven’t looked at it in years. And, I never even bothered to get on Twitter. I still don’t know quite what I’ll be posting about, but I’ll do my best to come up with something interesting.
I’ll be frank, not everyone is going to like what I have to say about certain topics. As I stated before, I march to a different drum, and I entertain some of the most unpopular ideas one can hold... I’m talking about things like questioning the Holocaust-TM, or even the BIG no-no, the shape of the Earth; and I don’t mean whether it’s hollow, or expanding, or concave... I question whether or not it’s even round at all.
Now, all these wild notions swirling around between my ears (or lungs; whether the essence of our being is housed in our heads or our hearts is another crazy idea I’m chewing on) are QUESTIONS, not assertions. Some of my positions, I’m fairly confident about, and I’m not afraid to make bold claims. But, I can never stress enough, that I DON'T KNOW what I don’t know. And, as I write these words I feel like that may be what the central theme to my page will wind up being in the end; an exploration of ideas.
I hear you ask “If you’re know some of your views will be unpopular, why mention those? Shouldn’t you try to make your audience as broad as possible?” To that I say: I’ve never been one to hide what’s on my mind. I’m not going to shield the world from my ideas or vice/versa. Besides, if ideas are what my page is ultimately about, then, the extreme and controversial are the ones it is most important to permit here. As I always say: “seek out wild and outrageous opinions” and “always ask the forbidden question”. SJWs and Snowflakes, be WARNED: This is a SAFE-SPACE for unsafe ideas. Here, all are permitted, and encouraged to look at UGLY TRUTHS, and ask SCARY QUESTIONS...
Well, that’s a launching board if I ever saw one! I’ll try to keep regular with my posts. Right now, my internet isn’t too reliable, and I’m not even going to have home access back until after the weekend. But, more than connectivity, my concern is providing interesting content. It’s one thing to not post because you couldn’t get online; it’s quite another to have nothing interesting to post at all. I don’t care if I piss you off, but God forgive me if I bore you. But, I’m answering the call of the Universe, so, I’m confident I’ll have a deep well to tap from. If I can make you think, or just make you laugh, we both win...
Good day to all!
