Author, social pariah/critic commenting on the fall of American society, the great reset, globalism, materialism, spirituality, sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll. Not necessarily in that order.
I like my privacy, so I'll keep this short and somewhat vague. :) I grew up on a farm in the province of Alberta, Canada. Had good grades in school, moved to the city and went to university and then to a technical institute. I've had a lot of different jobs, but ended up working with computers and have been doing that for some time now. I do at least 50% of the work on my cars and more around the house. I like to know things are done right, plus I just like to get hands on with things. There's that sense of accomplishment that you get. You can learn a lot and it's also cheaper than having someone else do it for you....sometimes quite a bit cheaper. And as everyone knows, knowledge is power. Plus I like being independent. Which leads me into why I'm here on Minds and other similar platforms. I refuse to be a slave. And what I'm seeing everywhere is people being tricked into giving up not just their own freedoms, but the freedoms of everyone else, including future generations. Any info that I can give here is a drop in the bucket, but every drop counts in this war against the enslavement of humanity.

My first calling was as a musician and songwriter...I was fortunate enough to have a good run...Some songs from a friend of mine you never heard but might like...

Friend of mine once told me this lyric should be stitched on a pillow:
"I believe that life is for living and love is the axis on which we turn
We bare our souls till all is forgiven
and clothe ourselves with the lessons learned"

A favorite quote from a favorite author:
“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
― Robert A. Heinlein
...and one I saw on a studio wall in Nashville:
“Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.”
― Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love
OK...one more...
“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, Friday

“Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"
Totalitarianism is a political system where the state strives to control all aspects of people's public and private life through mass surveillance, restriction of speech, state controlled media, and terrorism. This is what the corporate press and social media channels have become in America today.

I'm here to help us all.
I'm unlimiting myself so I may help unlimit you.
I expect nothing in return.

I intend to be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem.
If we all give more, we all get more to give more again.
It's in the "want to" we discover the "how to”
If it is meant to be, it is up to me
