Deeply zoning Two Pigeons. Radioactive Moses has inspired some drawings I’m now working on.

Hey Yasha! Joseph McBride (film scholar) wrote his two books on the Kennedy assassination on the side and self-published them. Couldn't you and Mark Ames self-publish your book on how the US pushed Putin into power?

Also: Any recommendations regarding Peter Dale Scott? He's supposed to be the better Chomsky.

Hey Evgenia! How's your Soviet Zombie movie doing? And do you have any plans to make "Changemaker" into a feature? It's got a lot of potential and you can do it basically as an ultra-low-budget film.

I have been enjoying Two Pigeons, but I mostly stopped by to say goodbye Yasha.

I started following your work during a bizarre period of my life which is thankfully over.

I overreacted to some fairly lame stuff one time and had a breakdown. It was all very lame and embarrassing, but I am fine now. I can be really stupid 🙄-eeek not a people person. Plus the stresses of modern life etc.

Sometimes..if I confuse..I don’t know. I am not a people person. Anyway..

I enjoy your work, but I generally stay off the net unless it is some sort of staid/stodgy science website..

I considered deleting my substack because I have ranted from this account and I am pretty sure I didn’t mean any of it. It was more of an overreaction to stuff I didn’t understand.

Good luck wrt your work :). I don’t remember what rants I have posted on substack, but I am pretty sure I didn’t mean them. Ack..the travails of the slow-witted such as yours truly trying to do science ..Eek..

Where do you find fulfillment and purpose within a culture that hyper-individualizes every aspect the journey? I get some individual fulfillment from bodbuilding workouts/long bicycle rides/maintaining a certain body type and I feel that really structures me. It doesn't seem like a complete fulfillment fix to join the circle. I guess I could volunteer to feed people and feel "one with the community". (I've done that and didn't agree with what we were feeding people. Food that lacks nutrients - what are we even doing?) There are many ways to fill out the day. Have children, get weddings, apply for loans for the journey of paying them off...

I hope that wasn't too werid, or that I regret wasting my question on such material.
