Imagine. That is the point. I am trying to get YOU to imagine something other than you as you are known.

The human animal is capable of being anything to anyone. Pyscopaths and politicians prove this every day. So for a moment, take yourself out of yourself and imagine:

You decided one day to stop being a consumer and instead decided to make things… What you make is not the point. The simple concept that you are now engaged in actively being instead of actively consuming is the whole story of the matter. And in that one change, you have begun redefining the entirety of the human social structure.

I work intimately with wood. I work with wood. See the relationship? I don’t build things (although I do)- but rather, I work with it. There was a boat company that challenged Cris Craft during the wooden years. I believe it was Owens. They basically screwed themselves by building instead of ‘working with’. The timbers they used for the structural backbones in their cruisers were harvested at the wrong time of year, due to oversight in knowing what wood actually is. Living things need other living things to work with them, not just tell them to serve a purpose.

There is an enzyme that is active in specific types of oak that will, if harvested at the wrong time, break down the wood years after it is cut and shaped to purpose. This led to the downfall of a company that provided some of the best peasure yachts of the era. Boats are meant to float and be protected from outer, external damages that water and waterborne microbes create. But when the microbe is internal, well, you are screwed. All due to timing, and not understanding how to ‘work with’.

Are you working with yourself? Or did you shelf the ‘you’ and simply think that fitting in with the expectations of a sick society would be the answer? Today, men are women and women are men, laws are stupid but people keep lining up to vote for government, and schools are indoctrination camps but parents still send their kids to stupid camp. Where is the you in that?

Pick up a hobby. Any hobby. There are youtube creators that make millions who simply share their hobby online. I am not advocating that lifetyle. I am telling you that you will learn more about yourself by being passionate about something that can be shared and has some intrinsic value instead of watching the next episode of game of thrones.

Go metal detecting. Buy a vintage slot car track and start racing it with your neighbor. Grab a frisbee and see if you can throw it to someone else 3 times in a row without dropping it. Point is, DO something instead of considering consuming something as a replacement. That was their plan to begin with. Fuck their plan. Disrupt your pattern. Grab a tennis ball and hit it with a hockey stick. Go photograph waves on the north shore of Superior. Do something. In short order, everything makes sense, and the insanity of what is around you becomes a great stand up routine at everyones expense but yours.

You are not a comparison of your neighbor. You are you. Show me what that is, not in what you think you have in common with others so we can see what a good and docile human you are, just like the rest, but what you secretly want to delve into but don’t because someone will shame you for it-or call it stupid. Nothing is stupid. We have had literally retard level people running the country for decades. One moron even worried about putting high rise apartments on an island fearing it would tip over and sink everyone living in an apartment like it was a high centered floating ship. And you worry about looking stupid? Fuck that. Show me that awesome stupid you are. That’s the gem of you.

I am making a low center of gravity recumbent bicycle. Stupid long. Won’t fit anywhere. But it is going to be super comfortable and make you feel like you are doing 200 mph when going 5. Prototype is 75 percent done. Will steer like a green machine from way back when. It is probably about the dumbest thing I have ever made. But every single person I have showed it to loves it. Why? Because it is the raw expression of what we all are. Dumb and fun. A new idea to express old stupidity.

Fuck professionalism. Time and place. Be a pro when you must. I depend on you for that. But be as retarded as you can and show me what you make when you quit stopping yourself from starting that dumb idea you have. I need that more than electricity or propane and propane accessories.
