What if the problem isn’t you? What if the exhaustion, the disconnection, the constant pressure to perform wholeness—aren’t signs of personal failure, but evidence of a framework that was never built to hold the complexity of being human?
Smart tools aren’t enough. Without orientation, we stay reactive, disconnected, and overwhelmed. Humane AGI begins with the self—not the system. Before we operate, we have to remember where we are.
Most people won’t be ready for collapse—not because they’re unwilling, but because the game was never explained. In a system where the rules kept shifting, the value of money drifted further from anything grounded in reality. We need to explore why both fiat and Bitcoin matter, and what it means to build the next layer of value with integrity.
Writers don’t want to be influencers. I assure you, as creatives, most writers have probably considered alternate paths—music, acting, painting, dancing, perhaps even influencing (however, I imagine this accounts for very few of us). For writers, though, none of these paths would have made sense because the whole point of being a writer is to […]
What is intelligence? This question has shaped philosophy, science and human self-understanding for centuries. Now, as we stand at the frontier of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), we’re faced with an even bigger question—what does our creation of intelligence say about us? AGI won’t emerge in a vacuum. It’ll be shaped by the values, incentives and […]
When I began my journey into web3, I remember thinking, wow, finally, a space that levels the playing field — a space filled with possibilities for women, POC and the socio-economically disadvantaged. In some ways, it felt like a blank slate. But, like any opportunity where capital is involved, bro culture and greed were already neck deep. […]
Did you know that the second biggest genocide in modern history happened in Ukraine in 1932-33 [six years before WWII]? Stalin was responsible for killing approximately 4.5 million Ukrainians during this time; a death count surpassed only by the Holocaust. Ukrainians were beaten, raped, starved, sent to concentration camps, or exiled to Siberia to die. […]
It’s Friday night and you just left the office, a dinner, a birthday party. You’re exhausted, but you proceed at a fast pace, clutching your keys in your pocket – the sharpest one wedged between your index and your middle finger. Just like you were taught. You’re still on a well-lit street, surrounded by people going […]
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a woman? Well, it feels a lot like you’re a Barbie – or at least, you are tirelessly trying to achieve being some semblance of a Barbie. As women, we are constantly told that this isn’t the case. That we don’t need to do this. That […]
Relationship gurus. Have you ever wondered why these have become so popular? I have. Mainly because I’ve dated one. And the actual relationship — a total nightmare. In my own experience, by the time someone reaches the status of “thought leader” in love, they become their own worst enemy in love. They try to coach when they […]
