    The Original Philosophy of Nothing Ever Happens (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Ahh, Parmenides! He seems to represent everything that the free spirit ought to reject. Where he says reason, we scream for the passions. Where he says that the senses deceive, we cry for radical empiricism. Where he says reality is “all, together, one, continuous,” there comes a holler for pluralism. Where he says that we live in one sphere with no past or future, we declare that we live in everlasting flux. Above all, where he claims to have been revealed the Truth,

    Why Buddhism is Counter-Traditional (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Why the "Based" Warrior Needs to Stop Fixating on Homer and Start Reading Heraclitus (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    This collection of aphorisms on Heraclitus is designed to mimic the experience of waking up from a 2,500-year-old collective hallucination. You’ll encounter my critically acclaimed “Dogian Aphorisms” (and dialogues) that cut through dry academic fog and constant Substack surface-level 5-min-reading-time book-report slop, revealing many secrets in plain sight that you haven’t heard of Heraclitus. Each aphorism builds on the previous one, so read them in order and cross-reference them later. The g
