Hi, I’m an Asshole.
At least, that’s what I’m afraid you’ll think of me.
For my whole life, I’ve been scared that if I told people what I really thought or what I really believed, I would end up hurting them and looking like a jerk.
So I bit my tongue.
I took the path of least resistance.
I wouldn’t tell people that I think the institution of marriage makes relationships harder, the nuclear family makes us lonely, and I don’t care about your new car.
So I started this blog.
Here I can say whatever I want and people can agree, disagree, or reject it all together. I don’t have to pretend, and I don’t have to hold back. I can practice telling the truth.
I consider each essay a work of art, not because it should be in a museum, but because I give it everything I’ve got.
There are no ads, no pop-ups, and I won’t ever be moving over to Medium, or Substack, or whatever the latest fad is. I liked the internet when there were more blogs and less social media owned by big tech companies, so that’s why I’m here, and that’s where I’m staying.
Speaking of old-school internet, I send out each new essay via email, just like a newsletter. I always reply to the readers who write me back through the newsletter. You can sign up for that below.
Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoy my writing.
