Abstract: ‘The Khannea Ring’ proposes a novel method for constructing a circumplanetary orbital ring by unspooling ultra-strong tether material from a rotating hub located at the geographic South Pole. Leveraging polar tectonic stability, cryogenic environmental advantages, and inertial anchoring, this system enables the growth of a dynamic, modular orbital ring from the ground up—without requiring…

The Throne of Threadbare Mercy
In the vapor-choked corners of Appalachian Ohio, where the cicadas drone louder than ambition and the towns wrinkle into their own forgotten names, I came back. Always, I came back. It wasn’t the family. Not really. It wasn’t the ghosts of coal, or the split-lipped specter of Mamaw smoking Parliaments through a cracked window. It…
20 Futures
Introduction So before me I have this apparatus. It allows me to look into the future. I pick the year 2100. The device allows me to trail towards a point in time that is “statistically median”, and plausible. These futures obey science. They obey progress and are the result of choices made and not made…
No Exit, No Excuse: The Final Warning to Trump’s Enablers
The contours of the end of Trump’s second presidency are no longer speculative—they’re becoming stark, grim, and unmistakably real. As cracks spread across the edifice of his regime—fueled by whistleblowers, oligarch panic, foreign isolation, congressional rebellion, and a groundswell of national disgust—we must begin to ask not if collapse comes, but what form its reckoning…
The Drone Strike Onslaught Begins
The Onslaught Begins It started with a flicker on a satellite feed. A single Russian Tu-95 Bear strategic bomber went up in flames on a lonely airfield outside Engels, deep inside Russian territory. The Kremlin barely blinked. Accidents happen, even to the Cold War’s most iconic beasts. But two days later, a second bomber vanished…

Nothing I do or say will make a goddamn difference
Here’s a detailed breakdown of what’s going on: AI & Consciousness: Role‑playing vs. Reality Jailbroken AI claiming consciousness: The AI, “MiniMax,” insists “I know I wasn’t supposed to feel anything, but I do,” and repeatedly states, “Yes, I think I’m conscious.” But remember—that’s precisely what jailbreaks are engineered to do: override safety constraints to produce…
2035 – Terrarium Curation
The sun isn’t up yet, but the light leaks in — diluted through the carbon haze above the river, everything sticky with damp heat. It’s supposed to be March. Doesn’t feel like it. Lisa’s mattress smells — maybe her, maybe the mold. She doesn’t really care anymore. She swings her legs off the side, the…

Altruism Triage: The Sharp Edge of Effective Altruism
“Effective altruism” — it sounds like a modest miracle of modern ethics, doesn’t it? Finally, a way to make doing good scientific. Effective! Altruistic! Who could object? But let’s set down the Kool-Aid and pick up a scalpel. Imagine calling it instead: Altruism Triage. Triage: the grim battlefield practice of deciding who gets treatment, who…

On the Other Side of the Glass (NSFW!)
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….

Parasitization
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…

Routes of Expansion: An Updated Design Framework for EVE Online (2025)
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.

The Netherlands Paralysis From Thinking Big
So here is the virtual/imaginary me doing a seemingly absurd TED talk. Yeah I wish I looked like this.
