I basically live in a jacuzzi, 85 miles from the equator. I’m not a vegan but because my major calorific intake is beer and Doritos, I may accidentally become one in due course.
My first post was on why men like me become sleazebags and what society needs to do about it. This was triggered by some uncomfortable introspection around #metoo and the Aziz Ansari allegations in particular. https://steemit.com/sex/@alexanderhilton/positive-sexuality-the-aziz-ansari-problem
I have a day job in PR (sort of), and if you read the Aziz Ansari Post you will see I have in mind the sort of content that doesn’t fit with the firm’s messaging. Though the boss is always keen on thought pieces, he prefers fewer references to porn, vaginas (vaginae?) and he’s not too keen on the ripe Anglo Saxon.
I believe the world is going to shit.
Brexit and Trumpism. Putin and the global decline of democracy. A seeming growth of rape culture. Humanity’s disregard for the resources under our care, and the inevitable conflicts that will arise. The divisions between rich and poor and how AI and robotics will exacerbate tensions. The world’s fucked and I wouldn’t want to bring a child into it.
But I do believe everything can be fixed. Possibly from my jacuzzi. Maybe on Steemit.
So I intend to write here about how the world can be made better. But also about any other stuff I find interesting.
For example, I like video games, travelling, I’m intrigued by crypto stuff. So who knows what I’ll post here.
But I’ll look forward to getting to know you.
