Humans are the only animals that have children on purpose, keep in touch (or don’t), care about birthdays, waste and lose time, brush their teeth, feel nostalgia, scrub stains, have religions and political parties and laws, wear keepsakes, apologize years after an offense, whisper, fear themselves, interpret dreams, hide their genitalia, shave, bury time capsules, and can choose not to eat something for reasons of conscience. The justifications for eating animals and for not eating them are often identical: we are not them.

I'm a 17-year old guy from Melbourne. My hope is to provoke you and your thoughts.

This blog is about politics, gaming, history, film, literature and other
(pop) cultural pursuits that are inseparable from the way we live today.
