Last week I turned 41 years old. Holy fucking shit. If I'm lucky I will get around 82 spins around our sun. I'm a father, I'm a Navy veteran, and from a few years ago I am also an expat. Living in Sweden has really changed my views of America over the years. It's amazing what I've learned when I'm not bombarded by the echo chamber. We visit often, and there's this general unease/stress that I feel in the states, I know it's real even if I can't put my finger on it.
I moved to Stockholm and setup my life the only way I knew how. I got an IT job, a car, a mortgage. I own a few things, or should I say a few things own me?
The need to move money over the ocean led me to Bitcoin. Bitcoin led me to alt-podcasts. And they led me to anarcho-capitalism. All of these have fueled my newfound critical thinking capabilities. Holy shit the world is not what I thought it is.
Now I've joined this new social network filled with like minded souls, and I'm grateful to be here. I don't know what to expect, I just want to keep learning and seeking truth. Peace to all.
