HACK № 58: Bromidic
Bromidic
You can’t find a moment alone. No matter where you go they find you. Cameras and eyes. Try to disappear and you sacrifice more than should be necessary. Privacy is no longer a right, it’s a luxury. Can you afford to avoid the dynamic shift in consciousness occurring all around you, throughout this entire planet?
I [...]
I Don’t Belong Here: The Batman...
If you’re the kind of person that likes to pore over tons of minutiae looking for patterns (and I am) and also the kind of person that likes to apply that analytical mind to social trends (that too) and especially to Batman in particular (of course) then you might have come to the same conclusion that I have: that Batman’s popular [...]

I Don’t Belong Here: Breathe Wi...
I realize I will immediately be dismissed as a crank the moment I say this, but conspiracies happen. Think about it for a moment after your immediate emotional response of “Oh, that’s ridiculous!” and you will see that I am right. The literal definition of “conspire” is “breathe together” — con- [...]

Presenting the very first episode of It’s The Crew! that was written and produced by Towel Boy: When Towel Boy goes back into the past to repair one of Noel’s failed relationships, will he create a universe where The Crew never existed?

This is what the flyer read:
In consideration of the trend towards body piercing and the political shift towards the religious right…
STIGMATA SHOPPE
Stigmata (bodily marks resembling the wounds suffered by Christ) has historically only been manifested in the holiest and most divine of us. Now, you too can be considered divine and holy by yo [...]
I Don’t Belong Here: Skeptible
I don’t believe in aliens. Let’s start there. I don’t believe in aliens. Or rather, let me expand and clarify. When I say I DON’T believe in aliens, I don’t mean to say that I DO believe that there NO aliens, just that I don’t have any belief at all. Belief is the death of intelligence, as Robert Anton Wils [...]

I Don’t Belong Here: Same-Sex M...
I’m just going to put this one up in the air, because I guess someone has to. There is no legitimate argument against same-sex marriage. None! Or rather, put more accurately, any legitimate argument against same-sex marriage is also an argument against marriage itself in general. That’s the shape of it. I’d rather be talking [...]
HACK № 39: A Conspiracy of Blessing...
Howdy Mediocritons, welcome to the thirty-ninth extremity of HACK. If you’ve made it this far, I’ll go out on a limb if you promise to catch me when I fall.
Dichotomies: What are we going to do about them? What aren’t we going to do about them? Is one side more real or more preferred than the other? Or do they exist simulta [...]
I Don’t Belong Here: Marriage I...
Marriage is for tools. Now wait, before the irrational reptilian part of your brain begins to immediately object. Let me explain. I do not mean to imply that if you are married, you are a tool. I am actually trying to directly come and state it. That marriage is for tools. You tool. Okay. NOW feel free for your reptilian emotional response. I [...]
