Dismantling the Torment Nexus 2.27.26. Content Warning.
“The whole system is fucked, from the ground up to the top down” is not a novel assessement of our current situation. Dutifully, I must couch such an observation with, if not solutions, at least a plea to better meta-analyze our society’s unfolding situation with greater rigor. I believe, considering the state of things around the world, we must conduct a postmortem on the status quo. All the tenets of progress we’ve ever been taught have led us to believe in a brighter, more hopeful future, yet upon closer examination it may seem more a deliberately orchestrated conspiracy than a series of unfortunate events.

Pending
Pending… Please Hold… There is no department officially responsible for waiting, yet it governs nearly everything. No one votes for it. No one studies it in school. No child says they want to grow up and participate in it. Still, waiting organizes modern life more reliably than law or tradition. It distributes attention, determines access, and quietly decides whose time matters.

The Crumbling of American Education
For twenty years, I have dedicated my life to a system where each year a piece of it snaps off. What began as cracks, evolved into falling chucks. What caused it? Many people believe the overuse of computers in school is the cause, but I believe the cracks began in 2002 when a group of lawmakers with no experience in the public school system crafted and put into law a bill which became the first slash to our education system titled: “No Child Left Behind.”

A Letter to Myself From One Year Ago. AI-Generated.
Dear you from last year, I'm writing this from a future that's closer than you think. It's only been twelve months, but you're going to be surprised by how much that changes things. Not dramatically. Not in a movie kind of way. Just quietly, in the ways that actually matter.

Facebook is Dead. Top Story - February 2026.
Or at least it feels like it's dead, doesn’t it? Any system that is not maintained and improved but simply left to its own devices, will enter a stage of entropy (natural, slow decay, degradation, and dilapidation) and eventually die.

How to Organize and Revolt
Stop. We all know you're not going to do anything. You like the system that sells you the savory bits to suck on. You like that seamless, curated, personalized hunger. The single click. The feed that knows your mood before you do. Seven scrolls of like and lack, and the therapy app that finds you on a Tuesday with a single thought.
