Comparing my Predictions to AMTRAK’s planned expansion
I have written about AMTRAK a few times, and made predictions based on where I think AMTRAK should expand based on potential demand for rail service around the United States before.

We Support Victims
While thinking about some absolutely horrible events which have happened in my life… without going in too much detail… I have come to a realization. Psychological abuse is abuse. Psychological abuse needs to be treated with the same level of care as physical abuse. Human brains are malleable and with enough time and the right …

Having cerebral palsy means that it forced me to have a strong sense of social justice for my entire life, because people with my condition have literally been murdered simply for existing. Family …
Procrastination is not a virtue
Today is the second day of the third Democratic trifecta of my life. President Biden is planning on sign the executive orders he can to fix most of the damage Trump did through executive orders, which is exactly what President Biden should be doing this week. Soon eyes will turn across the lawn to the …
Which side are you on?
Today we will know for sure where every politician stands compared to values. The easiest way for me to explain this is from the perspective of Germany in 1933, where the 4 main parties had very different policies SPD The SPD had strong actions backing their values. They always opposed the forces of evil no …
