Behold the Warrior!

What is the “manosphere”? What is a good man? That first question is easy to answer. The second question is harder and everyone seems to have a hot take on it. I tried to define masculinity and manhood in certain ways that would be appealing to the type of person moved by the manosphere, but I don’t think we need to restrict masculinity to what it traditionally has been. What matters is being a go...

I briefly discuss reactions to current events such as I.C.E. issues and why our reactions, claims, and judgments may not be as sound as we may like them to be.

Do not listen to this you feel it would be unsafe. If you or someone you know needs help talk to someone today https://988lifeline.org/ Much hesitancy was present while making and uploading this story. At the beginning of the year I had nearly a dozen topics I wanted to write and pontificate on. This was one of them. Although my upload schedule on YouTube/podcast platforms is not consistent, I'd c...

As provocative as this title may be, I decided to keep it since it shares the technical terms which are simply too relevant to omit. Nothing in this essay is intended as ad hominin, and I wouldn't share anything which doesn't provide silver lining or an imperative. So, as offensive as this title and topic seem, it is not directly offensive; it is merely offensive in that it is a critique of some b...

I'm a weird person and this is a weird way to share what's shared. I'm not always nice or sweet. I show love with the austerity of a fighter or a philosopher. It's not normal to discuss an ex in this way, but I hope this post sparks in you a desire to learn more for our species' well-being and motivates you to treat your loved ones with the love they need. Stay guided by reason and motivated by lo...

This was originally going to be a 3 part series, but I turned it into 4 to make it a bit more digestible. Life's been hectic, hence the random upload schedule I have, but I still have things I'm writing and I have messages I care to get out. So, I'm still here doing this thing. There's a lot I've been reading and I look forward to making videos on some of that so stay tuned. This and the next few...

For the sake of not fragmenting your attention, I included video for my message. So, for better or worse my face, however ugly, is in this one. I included a few studies/stats. Check out the description under my video Attention, Satiety, Satisfaction for the links to those. Perhaps this video was more stern. It is still, however, delivered out of concern for the well being of other people.

Apologies for the bad audio. I am on a family trip and did not have access to my recording equipment. RIP Charlie Kirk. Commentors, please keep it civil.

This is the section from my longer essay found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HloZPko_QgI&t=7688s Initially I was unwilling to cut up my long-form essays into smaller pieces because it leaves some to cherry pick and strawman certain arguments without the full context. To some degree, I was proven right with this conjecture with my essay critiquing religion- the full essay was extremely...

This is part 2 of a 3 part series. Check out the first part here: https://youtu.be/6FBQJEmq67A?si=A3M48gOLynHTFE48 Here are some links to the referenced studies/articles included: https://www.military.com/daily-news/opinions/2023/06/22/why-divorce-particularly-hard-military-families.html https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1718793115 https://www.cnn.com/2018/06/13/health/falling-iq-scores-study-...

This will be the first of a 3pt essay. I'll likely still upload a full version after I break it up. I prefer the long version, but people tend to turn away from videos over an hour long and I get why. So, for now, enjoy part 1! Stay guided by reason and motivated by love!

Love your fate. Do good for others. Stay guided by reason and motivated by love.

Enjoy some romantic stories from Greek philosophy and mythology as a break from the controversial essay I have uploaded recently. I hope this is enjoyable. If you enjoy this type of content over hearing me pontificate then let me know and more can come. Stay guided by reason, and motivated by love.

I wanted to provide a few observations I had with respect to the Bxng Club closure. Stay to the end for a cool announcement. This was written quickly and without the same care as my long form essays, but its proven difficult to let my brain focus elsewhere, so I thought I'd give a word about it.

Much love everyone. This essay will surely be taken as provocative, but my intention is not to breed hate... literally the opposite. Please be civil with any responses. Stay guided by reason and motivated by love.

On my days off on holidays I always get hit with inspiration to write and produce something new. Here are my thoughts on New Years Resolutions and my hopes for 2025. Thank you for listening.

Consider this a part 2 to the "Distractions and Bad Incentives" essay. Here I share how perverse incentives in tech, food, and porn ruin lives and why we shouldn't be so quick to place the onus on ourselves to simply resist it all in order to see self-improvement. More practical solutions to overcome common vices are provided in the video and will be expanded on further in the next essay. There is...

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. There is always something to be grateful for.

The podcast with guests will make a return once I figure out my living situation, but here is an essay I wrote to pass the time. I hope you find encouragement in it.

A Better Life Walkthrough is now Behold the Warrior! In this episode Peter introduces a new path forward and parses out changes with the brand. Expect a giant quality upgrade, more essays, and more guests.

Caitie is the general manager at the boxing gym Peter and Arthur work at, a former personal trainer, and a fitness influencer. We talk about a wide array of subjects from dating to fitness, and we touch on the essay I wrote and aired prior to this episode, specifically about the inability for people to know themselves in a world where screen time is taking over lives. We had much more to discuss a...
