I There is no conference badge, no streaming feed, no welcoming coffee cart with awkward name tags. There’s only a subterranean meeting chamber—windowless, surgically sanitized, fifty meters beneath a decommissioned UN annex that technically no longer exists. The room is circular. The walls are finished in unmarked brushed concrete. The light comes from four recessed…

Introduction I am no longer as pretty as I need to be. My body is aging. I am a trans woman in Amsterdam, and though I walk these canals, though I breathe in the scent of wet stone and fading spring, I know I am no longer the nymph I once felt I was becoming….

As America lurches toward the next presidential election, a new kind of candidate has emerged — less politician, more executioner. A growing chorus of voters, disillusioned by the past decade of spiraling corruption, authoritarianism, and elite impunity, is rallying behind an explosive message: “Elect me, and I will have Donald J. Trump arrested, imprison in…

Deterrence in an Age Where Everyone Wants to Die By Khannea Sun’Tzu   If I can’t have the future, neither will you.” In the 20th century, humanity stumbled through a near-miss apocalypse by inventing something miraculous: fear of dying. That’s what kept nuclear fingers from trembling too hard over red buttons. MAD—Mutually Assured Destruction—worked not…

The Vile-Tongued Scimitar Wondrous Magic Weapon – Sentient – Rare+Alignment: Chaotic InappropriateCommunication: Speaks, shrieks, or translates in up to 87 languages. 50% chance to understand/respond in any language it hears. The list is growing fast.

The slow-motion asphyxiation of a civilization, not through war or invasion, but by its own elites — once creative, now bloated, defensive, and immune to reform. Let’s cut into this rotting carcass and explore the concept with scalpels, not platitudes. Let me explain this to you step by step. I. What Is Parasitization? Parasitization is…

Synthetic Panic: The New Face of Non-Lethal Catastrophe There will be no bomb. There will be no shooter, no pathogen, no manifesto. No demands. No group claiming credit. Just the smell of rot, the sound of screaming, and the sight of something wrong shambling through a crowd. And then — people running. Pushing. Falling. Dying. And…

Disclaimer I’ve never been particularly skilled at playing EVE Online. While my main character, Daugar Draaken, dates back to 2006 and has accumulated over 100 million skill points, I’ve always been more of a casual, mediocre player than a hardcore capsuleer. I’ve struggled to connect with the broader player base—my blog posts are often met…

By Natalia Drescher, Brussels Desk — May 16, 2025WARSAW — Considering the total chaos after the unprecedented regime change in the United States, it was perhaps only a matter of time before Europe’s frontline nations took matters into their own hands. In a chaotic and hastily arranged press conference held Friday afternoon in Warsaw, a…

Khannea’s attempt to make Anders Sandberg to nod approvingly with a shitpost   Introduction: A Hypothesis No One Asked For In a universe destined to cool, darken, and decay over tens of sextillions of years, it might seem there’s little left to worry about after stars blink out and the last black dwarf rolls over…

Section 1 – Why did Trump Become President In The First Place? Let’s not sugarcoat it. Donald J. Trump is not some misunderstood genius. He is not a strategic mastermind, a misunderstood populist, or even a particularly competent demagogue. He is, by any objective standard, a man wildly out of his depth, ill-suited to leadership,…

This is a short, comprehensive summary of this article:  Overview: The Southern Exit Strategy presents a detailed, speculative scenario in which a mass exodus of young, educated Americans—burdened by debt, disillusioned by politics, and disempowered economically—legally migrates to southern European nations. These nations, suffering demographic and economic decline, welcome these migrants as an opportunity for renewal….

Redacted Realities A Rot at the Core It is the year 2028, and something is wrong. Not wrong like a paperwork mix-up or a late payment, but systemically wrong. The kind of wrong that doesn’t scream — it festers. You don’t see it on the headlines; you see it in the bureaucracy. In missing documents,…

So here is the virtual/imaginary me doing a seemingly absurd TED talk. Yeah I wish I looked like this.  How We Became a Civilization That Would Rather Choke Than Build There was a time when The Netherlands dared to reshape the Earth. We diverted rivers, drained inland seas, and carved entire cities into the rock….

Scene: A discreetly secured auditorium somewhere off-axis from Davos, not televised. Corporate TED aesthetics. Clean white panels. A curated audience of sovereign fund managers, biotech reps, military-industrial liaison officers, and select NGO executives operating in the gray zones of migration policy. No press. Everything filmed for internal use only. On stage, a soft-spoken moderator from…

April 2025 In a quiet but tragic passing, the American Republic—a frail yet once-ambitious experiment—died today at the stroke of a Presidential pen, euthanized via executive action titled “Strengthening and Unleashing America’s Law Enforcement to Pursue Criminals and Protect Innocent Citizens.” The Republic is survived by an elite class that remains blissfully unaware it has…

Published quietly in a journal no one quite remembers subscribing to.   In the spring of 2025, Claire Hastings’ life was so ordinary it hurt. She lived in Olympia, Washington, in a low, gray rental house on a street of identical homes, all with sagging porches and Amazon packages the neighbors tried to pretend weren’t…

“To create well is not to possess, but to care for what comes after you. True wisdom lies not in control, but in shaping with love what you cannot keep.” — Inspired by Diotima of Mantinea “I have known sex as worship, as escape, as weapon, as anesthesia. But never as a reason to replicate…
