Advice From a Cynical Graduate of Awkwardness
If you find that you are the butt of most of the jokes in your social circle, it is because you have been deemed inferior by the unspoken social ghost of everyone and no one. It is very likely due to some social awkwardness or difficulty communicating on your part- this is a plague that affects most interesting people. You must take direct and immediate countermeasures or your status as coal for the groups’ steam engine of humor will become definite. You are a muse as well as a pin cushion to them - you inadvertently serve to encourage the others to “improve” lest they too descend into the gloom of your hideous, leprous peonage. Unfortunately, the way things work here isn’t very fair or reasonable: no one will ever tell you what you did wrong clearly. Instead, there will be a silence, or an eye roll, or a chuckle, or a whisper. They want you to make mistakes. Your indiscretions will either be punished right away or subsumed into an ether which will eventually regurgitate a punishment upon you. You are expected to figure out what you did wrong on your own, and they won’t even tell you that. They’ll pretend that you should’ve “just known” what they happen to have already learned. You must fail in order to learn- it isn’t your fault, but you will be treated as though it is your fault. What’s more, the failures of others will not often be displayed and the higher-ups are often granted amnesty for their mistakes because they are prettier or wealthier than you and the sycophants that surround them wish to preserve their access to this abundance.

The Invitation
THE INVITATION Social confusion, embarrassment, awkwardness and “fish-out-of-waterness” all perfectly describe an experience I had years ago when I was in an interval between colleges and back with my parents, who were stationed overseas at the time.

Sounds of Peace
Where is self-expression contained? The importance of self-expression as an innate human characteristic has been a subject of continued discussion for many years. This idea of self-expression is more crucial to our existence than first realized. Innovation & progress require a significant degree of creativity & free thinking. Limitations placed on exploitative minds not only affect progress but mental health and other unseen issues. Even more frightening is the exploitation of creative potential for profit and war-related goods. Imagine being full of so much promise & ability without being able to express it. Imprisonment of the soul causes devastating results that only through breaking the chains of adversity will one flourish. Revisited repeatedly, regardless of conscious decision to do so, is self-expression, which remains a significant element for happiness & inner peace.

Why You Should Never Force a Child to Hug You
I'm sure we've all seen it happen or experienced it ourselves. Some adults will force a child to hug them even when the child clearly doesn't want to. It's pretty much been normalised that it's acceptable to hug a child that's screaming or crying, or even forcefully trying to get away, completely disregarding what the child actually wants. This is an unhealthy attitude that doesn't belong in our society at all.

Dear Younger Me...
Have you ever wished you could go backward in time? Not to relive the reckless days of your youth, but to tell yourself, “Hey! It’s going to be okay. Life isn’t that horrible after all”? Maybe it’s only once. Perhaps you’d time travel, find your teenage self and give him or her a hug, and say, “Hang in there, kiddo. It will get better.” Maybe you’d open a lifeline between the two selves and check in a few times a week.

The Peaceful Kind of Loneliness
Once in a YouTube video one of the video game commentators made the statement that in order to know if you’re going to be a good comedian, you need to completely fail a set. If you keep going back on the stage then it means something to you. If you can’t handle the hecklers and the fiery underarm sweat of no one liking the one thing you’re there to do, then the bright oven bulb of a stage light isn’t going to be your thing. I had been writing for a few years before this, but that philosophy has continued at my side. It is something I have been doing since I self-published my first book. It is something that I am still dealing with.
