What’s going on everybody out there in cyberspace? I hope all is well with you of course. I will just jump into it because there’s a lot that I would like to touch on. I began writing these blogs as a convenient way to communicate, express myself, and stay in touch. I knew I would be in a transitional period in my life. I had to fade away so that I could reevaluate how I was doing things, so that I could reinvent myself and find a way to turn my creativity into a career. I didn’t know exactly how I was going to do that.  But I knew I would figure it out along the way, and the process is ongoing. I say all that just to let you know that this will be one of my last written blogs before I debut my music vlog.  Maybe not the very last one, but I am getting closer to my main goal of being able to put out music on a regular basis.  While making it a worthwhile, profitable endeavor for myself.  Even when I get to that point, I will still write blogs.  But I’m going to lead with the music because I feel like that’s how I express myself best. I know that the only way to get people to care about your music is to have an appealing visual aspect to draw listeners in.  I had to think about what I can realistically do consistently and have a trajectory of profitability in the near term. I had an idea of what I wanted to do, also I would draw inspiration from some of the short-form video clips that I find pleasing to look at, but are also getting a decent amount of traffic online. That helped me to come up with my formula. It’s not just one thing, it’s several different elements that I want to bring together to tell a story. One of the main aspects that I wanted to incorporate, which I didn’t have much experience with, is 3D and 4D motion graphics. When you are first learning a new application, it’s similar to learning a different language. You’re a bit lost until you at least have a loose grasp of the basic fundamentals and terminology. Also, what I had to figure out is, out of all the different software applications out there, which do what it is that I want them to do. How much money do I need to spend, right now? There are a numerous amount of creator tools and resources, but most of them come with their own subscription cost. There are only so many subscriptions you can carry until at least the business itself starts generating revenue. These are industry level professional tools, so they can get pricey. For the motion graphics I own a basic version of the software already because it comes free with my adobe subscription. I had to figure out is if that’s going to be enough or if I need to ante up for the full version. Even if I have to buy it, which I am the only question is when, it’s a tax deduction. When I bring everything together, then add the music, I think it’ll make for some cool media that people will get into. They are instrumentals the goal is to get them licensed for TV, movies and video games. In the meantime, if I can monetize that content on social media, it will create an additional revenue stream that could generate faster than waiting for TV royalties to start coming in. From what I understand it can take a while possibly years for a sync license producer to build up to a full-time income. Now you probably noticed that I myself am not on any social media platforms. Don’t worry about that because I will be, and there are people who specialize in building and managing social media platforms for you. They know all the latest trends and algorithms because that’s all they do. So, it is not as important for someone like myself to learn that part of the business as it is for me to come up with the money to pay an expert to do it for me. I love to outsource things that I hate to do. You can pay with time or with money. For me, it is more advantageous to pay with cash and spend my time doing what I should be doing. Being that weird guy who stays in the studio for 10 and 12 hour sessions at a time doing that super tedious work that nobody else wants to do, but I enjoy it. For now that is the plan but you never know plans do change you have to be flexible, innovative and creative. The main point to take from this is that new music will be coming your way soon. It’s going to be a slow burn. I will start with some simple projects, then keep building to more complex work.

So I’m watching this super interesting program right now called Animal Pharm. It’s a play on words after that Russian animated film, Animal Farm, that they had us watch in the 9^th grade. Where the animals who lived on this farm were abused by their human owners. Eventually, the animals rose up and overthrew humans. What happened eventually is that the pigs who were like the politicians of the farm became corrupt and started acting just like the humans before them, abusing their power and the other animals. It’s political satire, I believe it’s a parody of the Russian revolution. What’s funny is that this show, Animal Pharm, is actually about harvesting organs from animals, specifically pigs. So, in the film the pigs become like the people, but on this show people are becoming part pig—either way, a super interesting topic. It's great to see this industry advancing. This is some uplifting, positive, hopeful news to report on. Lord knows we need that in current times.  It would actually put me out of a job. You know I’m a truck driver but what I do specifically is deliver dialysis fluid. It’s so amazing to see what it takes to replace one small organ in our body. It’s a whole entire multi billion dollar industry. People can wait on those kidney transplant list for years, unless they have a relative who is willing to donate in a trade or exchange. Even sometimes, when they get a transplant, their body might reject it. Even if the surgery is a complete success it only lasts 10 years. It’s great to see modern medicine advancing to the point where it ends this type of suffering. I believe that’s one of many reasons we’re not supposed to eat pork. That’s just my own personal belief, not telling you what to do, you can eat what you want, besides the fact that pigs are surprisingly intelligent. I’ve always heard that their physiology is remarkably similar to our own. This is my own personal philosophy that leads me to reason that whenever there's something that millions of people do out of tradition or religion. There’s probably an actual scientific reason, but that information was lost to us. So I often try to research potential reasons why. If a farmworker falls into a pig trough, they can be eaten alive when we do keep pigs as livestock in large quantities. They are often intelligent enough to escape captivity, where even a domesticated pig will revert to being a wild boar they breed and multiply like crazy. They usually will wreak complete havoc on their surrounding environment. There’s an entire industry behind hunting down and killing these rogue hogs. That’s what the show American Hoggers was about. That’s what leads me to believe that pigs were meant to be kept in small quantities so that we could pharm their organs not eat their flesh. There’s some evidence that the Ancient Egyptians did this.

On a different topic, Friday was Endangered Species Day. We shouldn’t have just one Endangered Species Day; we should highlight a different endangered species every day.

Alrighty then people, let’s get right into this discussion. When we last left off, we talked a little about the bioengineering of human organs to address the critical shortage. The advances in this field show a lot of promise inspiring hope for all those affected by some degree of organ failure. Since this blog is about critical thinking and to take it a bit further, just as much about fourth dimensional thinking outside of the box.  With that being said let’s get into the philosophical portion of the thesis.  Philosophy continues to be one of my most significant interests as I view it as the bridge between spiritual and logical science. With myself attempting to serve as a voice of reason between these different planes of thought. People often think of science and faith as being vastly different and contrary to each other.  Which they are but since two things can be true at once.  There are also a lot of commonalities and evidence linking the two. These are the areas I like to focus on for my thought exploration exercises. This topic of bioengineering organs brings to mind the scripture in Genesis where God created Eve for Adam. It says God created Eve by taking a rib from Adam’s side. Doesn’t this sound similar to the areas of science like bioengineering body parts? Of course, Genesis was written by someone in the first century who didn’t have the proper terminology to describe something like this that he had been inspired to write. Even when the Bible talks about how God first created Adam, it says he was created from dust. If I were a writer long before the first century, I wouldn’t know what atoms and molecules were because they hadn’t been discovered yet. I would probably describe them as dust particles. The point that I am trying to make by drawing all these comparisons is the nature of how we think about what God is, because of the false reasoning of many religious organizations. The image we tend to think of is some magical guy with a long white beard floating on a marshmallow cloud in the sky. When in actually shouldn’t we be looking at God as being the master scientist, the original scientist that has been around longer than we could possibly comprehend. I do not find it difficult to believe that there were civilizations that existed in this universe before us. Mathematically, this is the most likely scenario. Perhaps one of these civilizations had a lot to do with our creation. The ancient astronaut theory is based on the scenario that if we encountered a society that was technologically a hundred thousand years ahead of us, we would consider them angels or gods.  Imagine a million years or even a billion. There is literally mountains of evidence that suggest this. Ancient Aliens is in like what? 15 seasons.  The guy who was my best friend growing up. Long before he fried his brain with meth. As kids we would have sleepovers, and we would stay up all night and have these deep philosophical conversations about religion, spirituality and God. Ok, well, honestly, mostly we would stay up all night and just talk about girls. Occasionally, other subjects would slip in there. One of the significant conclusions we came to was that instead of thinking of God as some far off entity.  Think of him as a real person. Not a person in the sense that we are a person made of flesh and bones, but a real individual with their own thoughts and emotions. The scriptures say that we were created in God’s image, perhaps billions of years ago, God was something similar to what we call a human. If there is an architect of this universe, as I believe there is. Don’t you want to be on his good side? I personally will try not to do anything to damage that relationship. The question that I get a lot is: if there is a God, why is life so horrible and unfair? That’s a whole other lengthy discussion on it’s own. The short answer is this because perhaps the reward for passing the test of life on this living hell prison planet is really just that incredible. Imagine a reward beyond anything you could possibly comprehend, like your own planet to populate as you see fit, build it into what you would imagine a paradise to be. It’s theoretically possible there are an unlimited number of planets to be discovered and cultivated. I think that God is just trying to make sure he is not populating the Universe with assholes. Relating back to the film Animal Farm. It greatly reminds me of the story in the book of Numbers where this guy Balaam was riding his donkey on the road and God put an angel in his path. The angel has a sword and was there to kill this guy. The donkey can see the angel but Balaam cannot, so when the donkey veers from the road Balaam starts to beat the donkey. This happens three times before the donkey gives up and just lies down.  So Balaam gets pissed and really starts beating the snot out the animal. What happens next, is as the parable goes is that God causes the donkey to be able to speak. Now this is how I imagine that hilarious interaction would have went. First off, I imagine that the donkey sounds like Eddie Murphy in Shrek. He’s like “OOOOOWWWWW WHY YOU KEEP HITTING ME FOOL?”. Then Balaam says the most Homer Simpson thing ever in the Bible when he says: “Because you're trying to make a fool out of me. If I had a sword I’d kill you.” It would be funny if the donkey replied to him like: “Yeah well you don’t but you want to know who does? That guy”. Just then God opens his eyes and allows Balaam to see the angel. The angel is like: “I was going to kill you bro and let the donkey go. He saved your life.” You can go read the whole thing if you want Numbers 22. The funniest part of this story is that the guy didn’t react with utter amazement when the donkey started speaking. It’s like in the Garden of Eden when the snake started speaking to Eve. In both of these situations my reaction would have been: “So you can talk? Well, this is certainly new”. It reminds me of that commercial where the guy is in the middle of that desolate paradise lagoon. Then a dolphin swims up to him, looking annoyed and asks: “So how did you find this place?” Looking a little bewildered, the man answers: “Yahoo.” The Dolphin says: "Oh" just turns and starts to swim away. The man shouts: “Wait …….. How’d you learn to talk?” The Dolphin casually replies, “Yahoo”. Then, he just swims away. I thought that one was clever and funny. Anyhow, I’ve become a bit more spiritual as of late, seeing what drastic, tragic, psychotic direction the world has shifted toward.  It helps me find hope beyond what we can see and touch in our own physical realm. I believe it could help others. Otherwise, I would not write about it. I have to say these things now, because if not, I might not ever get to say them. While I could be wrong, it does seem like the clock is starting to count down to Judgment Day. I am not ever trying to tell you what to think. This blog is based on my own personal experiences. My thoughts on the Holy Scriptures are this: I believe the Bible is divine,  but not infallible. Due to the fact that it was written and interpreted by men. There are many different versions and interpretations.  Although they all carry the same common theme. The phrase that comes to mind is. “Yes, God gave us a book, but he also gave us a brain. Let’s try to use them both in conjunction with each other.” Before I move on to the next topic. I wanted to say the Bible is man’s word. Jesus was God’s word. I had to get that out. Now moving on to something different.

I wanted to discuss motion graphics and business a little further. In my limited free time, I've been studying and learning the process for a few months now. Keep in mind that people go to school for years to learn this specialized skillset. While I don’t plan on diving that deep into that world. I mainly just want to generate some cool, unique visual effects to accompany my trax. In the past when I wanted to edit a new kind of visual into a video. I was able to find some excellent step by step tutorials to follow along with. For what I want to do particularly, there’s not much information to learn from. So it’s been a little more time consuming to get up to speed with what it is that I want to do. On the flip side of that when I do get up to speed. There won’t be many people if anyone is doing what I’m doing, at least at first. If I can prove it to be a successful formula for digital media. Not only does it become an unlimited supply of exciting content, but it also becomes a service to offer, as well as a digital product in the form of templates for other artists to showcase their own music, which can potentially be another lucrative revenue stream in its own right. I mentioned sync license production earlier which I think is a good opportunity. To be quite honest with you I believe the real potential lies elsewhere. In licensing, people pay you to use your music to sell their products. That equation can be modified. You can use your music to sell your own products. In 2025 I began my self-publishing journey. Publishing books online is a natural fit for me. Since I am a writer I mine as well become an author. Soon, I will jump into the deep end of this business with both feet.In some ways, it’s very similar to what I was doing before with my online store. Except with 75 percent less headache and hassle. Because everything is digital, no physical inventory is required. I want to give you some background on my physical product. It wasn’t a failure it got good ratings people like it and I sold thousands of units. At the same time it was not a success either, I never made it to a large enough margin of profitability to sustain the business. Because of rising manufacturing costs after the pandemic, I would have had to sell it at a price I didn’t think was a good deal for the consumer.  Long story short, dealing with physical products and international shipping can quickly become a money pit and a nightmare.Because of that and several other factors I folded the company. This happens with online sales you can consider it part of the learning process, and I did learn a whole lot. The product I was selling is pretty cool. I believed in it and I still do, it’s just not a company and never will be. That said, I still have a few hundred units leftover in my warehouse aka my storage unit.  The plan is to give them away when I start my Patreon. The difference between what I’m doing now compared to what I was doing then is not only not having to deal with physical products. This makes it much more beginner friendly and much less capital intensive. One of the cons of running a cash intensive business is that when opportunities come along if most of your money is tied up in inventory you can't take advantage, you can miss out on good investments. Then all I did was buy a course that did not include any additional support along the way. To help you with critical decisions like choosing your first product. This is not to blame anyone, even though my product checked all the boxes provided to me in the course. Even the software I was using told me it was a decent idea. Still due to inexperience I managed to choose the most difficult category I could have possibly chosen to start in. Still, it was a unique, good product, so I saw a measure of success.  The platform kept changing the rules and moving the goal post until finally they just nuked the entire category. Which is fine I pulled my inventory and moved on with my life. Some of my competitors were hurt way worse than I was because they were more deeply invested. I see them online still trying to liquidate their inventory. They’re selling off their products so cheap that even I had to buy some. Even if I had succeeded with what's going on now with trade will put 90% of online 3^rd party sellers out of business. With digital products, I don’t have to worry about any of that. All the products are manufactured in my skull. Also the program I am now in includes a coaching component which pairs you with an experienced, successful self-publisher to consult with. In order to get you the strongest start possible and prevent you from wasting resources or making critical errors that could tank your entire business before you even get started. It includes a money back guarantee and a timeline of about 12 months to get you to five figures a month. It could take a little longer but it could happen even sooner. They are people making a lot more money than that, some self-publishers are doing six and even seven figure months particularly during quarter four. It depends on you.  At this point I have a considerable amount of resources to put into this venture and I feel very motivated to level up to the next stage of my life. In Self publishing you are not tied down to a product to have to receive and ship. You're not tied down to job so you can travel. You can manage your business from anywhere in the world with a laptop and wifi. The best part is the majority of the work can be outsourced. So in a year from now I can be semi-retired, God willing. Actually, the best part is that you will have built something that you own. Your own corporation you have freedom, and passive royalties. You can do what you please with the business even sell it. Now while the publishing business is going to be completely separate from my music brand at least at first. When the publishing starts going strong, it will catapult what I’m able to do musically. Particularly when I’m able to quit my job. At that point I’m really going to be able to spread my wings and soar. In the future once I learn and become proficient in both businesses. The videos could catalyze a high level of publishing success. The publishers who are really killing it are not buying ads. Instead they have learned to leverage social media traffic into wildly successful ventures. The trend that’s starting to emerge as a winning business model is marketing your digital products through the various short form video platforms.  If you can successfully direct that traffic towards your online storefronts. There are examples of people leveraging one viral video into six and seven-figure companies. Of course you're not going just to post one video and get rich. You'll have to show up daily and upload hundreds of videos to find your audience. So that’s one of the reasons I’m studying and practicing with the 4D motion graphics. This business is a good fit for me it’s based on creativity and imagination. Anything that you can dream up is potentially a new product with little overhead to create and send to market. With this new strategy keep in mind that I don’t necessarily need to be the face of it. The media itself can be the star. The products themselves can have the spotlight.I can just be the driving force behind the company.  That’s one of the reasons I’m choosing to just produce instrumentals for now. I believe that will help me appeal to the broadest audience possible. We will see, I’m still learning and building but that is the direction I can see things going towards. When you re-imagine and restructure your business model things don’t always manifest overnight. One reason for the blog is to keep people in the loop in the meantime.  Once I start rolling it’s just a matter of repetition and consistency. Things are definitely starting to turn the corner for me and pretty soon I will be publishing media fast and furiously. Before that starts to happen, the main big thing I need to do is buy a new computer. My old one works fine I’m working on it now as I write this. It’s just time for a much more powerful machine. That can handle the massive amount of workload I’m about to put it through. Also it’s good to have two computers if one goes down you can still be online and work while the other is being repaired. I mentioned I would do this a few years ago, but it wasn’t a good time financially nor a necessity. Within the next few days I’ll head on down to the local computer shop and put in my order for my new build. Now I have the resources to build a real beast. From there when I get it home I just need to install all my software and we will be up and rolling. Money is so funny when you’re hurting; nobody wants to give you any. Once you get some everybody wants to give you all this free money. You go from a position where you're like Dam, I can’t buy anything extra, to If I don’t start buying stuff, I’m losing money. It’s all about getting on the left side of that interest equation. Collecting it instead of paying it.

 Alright, everybody. I will try to wrap this blog post up today. It’s funny when you put time in between your writings, even if it's only a week or two, and the whole world has changed. Is it fair to say that World War 3 has officially begun? The“Apocalypse Report,” does anybody have that as a name for their podcast? Or can I use it? Just for documentation purposes, I want to state that this week in June, as we are already engaged in full scale warfare with Russia. We have without provocation for no reason we have illegally attacked Persia. In the attack which is considered an act of terrorism due to the fact that mostly civilians were massacred when their apartment building was bombed in the middle of the night. In order to assassinate civilian nuclear scientist. Because they’re so scared that these Persians might one day be capable of defending themselves from the unholy terror (the wild beast being ridden by the drunk harlot- reference: Revelations 17-22) unleashed upon them. This is from a country that spends more money on war than every other country worldwide combined. Even though they couldn’t balance their budget even if they wanted to, literally, the interest is too high. Any gesture to do so is pure political theatre. Put on by the actors in Washington. By far the largest slice of that budget is the Pentagon, at a trillion dollars to a department that failed its last 16 audits and cannot account for 60% of its own budget. Then there's this elaborate surade of pretending like they're trying to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse. When in actually they are just taking their turn to raid the piggy bank.  It’s the oldest scam in the book we’ve all seen Casino. A big briefcase in the money room skim off the top. Distract everyone with meaningless culture war issues. The most surprising thing is that the public is so sedated that they're allowed to get away with it.  American politics have become so corrupt that they are not even interesting enough to watch anymore. Special interest corporate money sets all policy on the federal level. The richest and most powerful among them being the weapons manufacturers and war profiteers. 

Listen, I started writing the portion of this blog where I discussed South Africa and my thoughts on synthetic meat. I just feel like right now, it’s a little inappropriate due to the whole WW3 situation going down. Let’s watch and see where this escalation climaxes. I will put those thoughts into a separate blog in the near future. While we are talking about movies, what about that guy who was the only survivor of that Indian plane crash. He walked away from it with barely a scratch like a superhero. I’m not trying to downplay the severity of this horrible tragedy, but talk about life imitating art; that’s the opening scene of Unbreakable. Well, it’s finally time for me to put an end to this month long written rant. You can be sure I will soon return with more. If you do not hear from me for a short while, it’s only because I’m busy setting up my new computer and installing all my software. Look out for more fitness and health-related content. Right now we have to really take our health and well being into our own hands. The forces that have gained power in this country are actively trying to get people hurt and make them ill, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, I like to add. Which has always been the case in this country but as of late, it has been exacerbated to the max. They are succeeding massively in their efforts. That also explains the assaults on educational institutions. A population that is ill, stupid, misinformed, weak, in debt and uneducated is going to be a lot easier to control than one that is the contrary of that. I want to do my part to counteract the lies and deception. All new music and videos are coming your way soon. I just have to make sure the timing and presentation are on point, so that my time, hard work, and artistry are properly appreciated and as a result monetized accordingly.  As always Muuuuccccccchhhhhhh Love to all my whipalizations! I wish you the best as well as success with no stress. Stay tuned I will return soon. Until then this has been your Apocalypse Report.
