Motivation and Achieving Goals; But What's The Cost?
When considering motivation, is efficacy the best metric to use to judge/compare them? Can there be effective and powerful motivators that are dangerous, destructive, or chaotic? And how do emotions help (or hinder?) us in attaining a better understanding of this conundrum?

Your Writing Could Save Somebody’s Life
I was just having a super-cool interaction with my buddy Rusty Shackleford a few minutes ago. I came downstairs to hang with my daughters while they splatted the toon, (playing Splatoon 3 on Switch), and thought I’d check my Medium for new comments.

Introductions, Please
Introductions, Please I would like to introduce myself and no doubt there will be negative reactions to what I have to say in this post and any posts that may follow. To save you time looking up my profile and seeing what I have posted I will tell you upfront. I am a 55-year-old white American Christian male. The fact that I am a 55-year-old person should not factor in anyone’s view of me, yet it will. The fact that I am a person of Caucasian descent should not factor into anyone’s view of me, yet it will. The fact that I am an American should not factor into anyone’s view of me, yet it will. The fact that I believe in Jesus Christ and that he is the Messiah should not factor into anyone’s view of me, yet it will. The fact that I am a male should not factor into anyone’s view of me, yet it will. The fact that I do not think as you, should not factor into anyone’s view of me, yet it will. The fact that I do not have the same beliefs as you should not factor into anyone’s view of me, yet it will. My actions and MY actions alone should factor into anyone’s view of me, but many will allow preconceived biases to shape their judgment of me. And before anyone asks, What about speech? I would put that under actions as much as writing. When you express your thoughts and beliefs, that is an action, as much as physical actions are.

Feminism
"Feminism is the radical notion that women are people." - Marie Shear (1986) As a white american cis-male from the middle class, my voice is probably not the one you most want to be hearing right now. In baseball terms, I've already got my three strikes, plus one, even if you're being generous. If that's the case, and you're not familiar with her, check out Marie's wiki page linked above, and run with it.
