The Fortune in the Mop Bucket: The Janitor Who Secretly Funded a Stranger's Future
The halls of a high school after dark are a strange, liminal space. During the day, they are a cacophony of slamming lockers, shouting teenagers, and the squeak of sneakers. But after 4:00 PM, when the last bus pulls away and the teachers pack up their grading, the building exhales. It becomes a cavern of silence, smelling of floor wax, stale chalk dust, and industrial cleaner.

The Real Reason We Go to War Isn’t What You Think
Most of us grow up hearing the same explanation for war. It’s about freedom. It’s about safety. It’s about justice. Those words sound good. They’re clean. They’re easy to repeat. But the older you get—and the more patterns you notice—the harder it becomes to accept that story at face value.

Dust FALLS off
If you were planning a big party for Easter, you might say to yourself, "Damn, I'm gonna' need a bunch of eggs!" That's perfectly fine to say when it's between you and you. However, if you let the statement roll off your tongue in a busy room, some genius may feel the need to remind you that bananas are sold in a bunch and eggs mainly come in a carton. Sorry to break it to you, Einstein, but you're the slow one here, not me.

I Chose $10M Over Jesus…Would You?
The question didn’t come up in a church. It didn’t come up on a stage or in a scripted interview. It came up the way real conversations usually do — casually, in the middle of barbershop talk, when nobody’s trying to sound deep and nobody’s chasing a viral moment. One minute we were talking about boxing, money, and whether anyone in their right mind would step in the ring with Mike Tyson for a massive payout. The next minute, the conversation took a hard turn into something way more uncomfortable.

Picky Playerz
Before I get started with this message, let me emphasize one thing I firmly believe: Solid men don't fret for support. With that being said, try your best not to misconstrue the tone of what I'm about to write. I just happen to be a man that goes where inspiration leads him and I'm at an era of my life in which the selective nature of people keeps being made prominently obvious. Make no mistake, such a nuisance of habits is not new to me at all—just shockingly more apparent right now. To prove it, I dove deep into my timeworn journals for any text that shines light on the common person's deliberate manner of applauding or acknowledging others; Self-interested selectiveness. As I said, I'm no stranger to low vibrational games, so I'll kick off this topic with a journal I penned 7 years ago.

Better Living Through Misogyny
Orion Taraban, PhD claims to offer "better living through psychology" in his PsycHacks podcast and in a self-published book entitled, The Value of Others, in which he describes and advocates for an "economic model of relationships." In reality, he offers half-baked red-pill advice that is nothing more than misogyny posing as relationship counseling for men.

Rebuilding Reciprocity
Truth alone can heal what pride has broken. The war between men and women is not natural. It is manufactured by a culture that rewards resentment and mocks responsibility. Men are not the enemy of women, and women are not the enemy of men. The true enemy is the spirit of division that turned cooperation into competition. To rebuild what was lost, both must return to the principle that made civilization possible: reciprocity.

The Asymmetry of Consequence
A society cannot survive when truth applies to one group but not another. Every civilization that endures is built on shared accountability, equal justice, and balanced consequence. When one group is shielded from correction while another carries the full weight of judgment, corruption takes root. Today, that imbalance has become deeply gendered. Men are punished for failure, while women are protected from it. Men are held to the standard of results, while women are measured by intentions. The scales of consequence are no longer even, and the results are visible everywhere.
