Chapter 90: Living Under Oppression 22.09.2022 20:18
Despite believing in a world of human nature first and human nationality second, sometimes one cannot escape the realities of belonging to a specific region of the earth and living under a specific government. That government can shape many things in the individual; from fears and beliefs to anxieties and in many cases, the cause of death. This is the tale of one's life under one regime, and the o...
Chapter 89: I'm Frustrated! 16.09.2022 20:19
Frustration can stem from many different avenues, from dealing with people of other professions to the inane feeling of helplessness and loss of time. Wherever the frustrating root grows from, the tree and the fruit is the same. With frustration comes anxiety and anger, it brings forth antagonistic tendencies and rears the ugly head of restlessness. That is what frustration is, and one sometimes n...
Chapter 88: Ending a Chapter 09.09.2022 20:20
When one has been involved with a situation or an institution for a not inconsiderable amount of one's life, severing ties and moving on might feel more significant than thought before. When one severs ties with an institution that shaped a lot of what today is like for someone, going away and trying to open a new page feels more like opening a new chapter, rather than just another page.
Chapter 87: It's Been One Year Since I've Been Making Videos 02.09.2022 20:18
For the past year, from August of 2021 to August of 2022, a little series called "The Good, the Bad and the Interesting" has been appearing on a little channel called "AK88 Studios". Now that it's been one year since the start of that series, it might be good to take a look at what happened in the past year and discuss the deeper feelings associated with creating videos. TGTBTI - We Didn't Start t...
Chapter 86: Only Murders in the Building 26.08.2022 20:18
Once in a while comes a show, with the exact humorous tone suited for one's sense of humor and a good mystery to integrate into that humorous tone; and on top of that manages to balance these perfectly and add an intriguing cast as a cherry on this deliciously created sundae. When a show like that comes along, it's imperative to discuss that show; and that show is "Only Murders in the Building".
Chapter 85: I Love Scatman John 19.08.2022 20:17
With so much cynicism in the everyday world, it seems harder and harder to look positively at the world and try to abide by the virtues of inclusivity and connectivity; but that's why when a true inspiration like "Scatman" John Larkin comes along, it's important to realize his message and try to abide by it. Because to put simply, if the Scatman can do it, so can everyone! ONE HIT WONDERLAND - "Sc...
Chapter 84: Traveling Is Fun(ny) 12.08.2022 20:19
Even for introverted people who enjoy the confines of their safe havens, traveling sometimes can bring with itself good memories and new perspectives. If that travel comes after a major illness, one can find themselves enthralled with the experience of traveling. If that travel is to one's hometown, it might even bring with itself new challenges and new looks.
Chapter 83: I Hate Jordan Peterson 05.08.2022 20:15
With the advent and the oversaturation of "public intellectuals", it's hard to not notice a growing number of them who spew their political and social ideologies as indisputable facts; and one of the more prominent one of them is a Canadian professor who rose to fame by getting involved in a cultural war of his own making, Jordan Peterson. Sometimes, one hates Jordan Peterson and what he represent...
Chapter 82: Getting Covid 29.07.2022 20:18
After the missed chapter, first of its time, "The Last Thoughts of a Busy Mind" is back. The specter of a disease has roamed the human world for the past two years, and the mental decay and the existential emptiness that it brings sometimes can rival its physical symptoms. So when one, despite care and effort, doesn't manage to escape the slippery hands of the specter, sometimes it's imperative to...
Chapter 81: You Know the Parents! 15.07.2022 20:18
When one looks back at most of the insecurities and the mental anguish of one's young life, the answer inevitably can be drawn back to the people who raised one from an embryo to a full-fledged adult. Their mistakes, their behavior and their actions creating a man or a monster within one's life. Parents, simply, need to understand.
Chapter 80: I Bought a Mug from a Supermarket 08.07.2022 20:19
There's a phenomenon called "mundanity", which is described as the quality of being mundane. When one's views of their own expectations are skewed, mundanity is oftentimes seen as a negative and oftentimes as a curse. But, mundanity is not set in stone. When one's definition of "mundane" changes, maybe mundanity is not as mundane as it once were.
Chapter 79: The Feeling of Burn Out 30.06.2022 20:17
When one extends one's ability and stretches one's mental capacity for creative work passed a certain threshold, the thought of continuing on that creative path will become arduous and sometimes may appear impossible. The feeling that one experiences at that point is a feeling commonly known as "burn out", and one can feel the reaches of it through time. Check out my appearance on "Stamper Cinema"...
Chapter 78: It's Getting Hot... 24.06.2022 20:20
With summer leaving the horizon and finally arriving at town, the weather has a tendency to be warmer than it was once used to be. With warmer weather, for people for whom warm weather is a true nuisance, comes a litany of questions and feelings. From harmless and fun like what cold drinks is one to make, to anxiety-inducing questions on Climate Change and Global Warming, and their scope.
Chapter 77: Sometimes You Need to Get Mad 16.06.2022 20:18
The feeling of anger is one that has a lot of controversy surrounding it, which makes it harder for one to express it as usual as other feelings. Though, the converse of expression of anger is the accumulation of it; and that might lead to unhealthy behaviors. So, for balance and for the good of one's health, sometimes anger is the emotion one needs to express.
Chapter 76: Catching Up 10.06.2022 20:19
When one is away from a regular conversation for an not insignificant amount of time, there are issues and points of interest that remain undisclosed. When one returns to that regular conversation, those points are in need of a revision. It's time when one returns once more, for the sixth time, to catch up on what has happened. Check out my appearance on "Broken Bulbs": https://brokenbulbs.captiva...
Special Chapter #4: I Wonder What Kamiab Is Doing Tonight? 20.05.2022 1:53:36
In this episode, I sit down to talk with a friend of mine situated in another country, Kamiab. We met each other in a group catering to Persian Whovians, and despite some incredibly immature interactions, remained friends and started to talk more and more. So we decided to discuss the current state of "Doctor Who" and "Star Trek", Kamiab's interactions and plans for the gaming industry, and some n...
Chapter 75: Almost Like Being in Love 29.04.2022 20:19
As the current season comes to an end, it brings with itself anticipation and resolution. As new journeys, exciting and breathtaking, take shape and ask for one to step in their way; it's hard to not want to look back and look at the desolate wasteland behind. But, sometimes one can go on not looking back or looking too far, when that one feels happy and content. When it almost feels like being in...
Chapter 74: I'm a Geeky Boy, in a Geeky World 21.04.2022 20:18
The world today seems absolutely maddening, and for the most part is it dangerously depressing. With a history of injustice and ineptitude and the overbearing weight of an uncertain future crushing one's hopes and dreams, every human being needs moments of solace and recharging. For some it takes the form of medication, for some it takes the form of physical activity, and for some it's expressing...
Chapter 73: Puttin' on the Ritz 15.04.2022 20:18
To maintain a presence online is a task that can bring burnout and doubt more often than one is ready to handle. There are many recipes for supposed success in the ever-connected world of today; but sometimes one is stuck between those recipes and what they are meaning. What does it mean to chase that success, if one is sacrificing their work? TGTBTI - Jafar Khan Az Farang Bargashte: https://youtu...
Chapter 72: Contradictory Thoughts 07.04.2022 20:18
There are times that one goes into a trance of revising one's thoughts and realizes a peculiar phenomena: One can believe in two contradiction as one and holds them as equal truths. Whether meritless or meritorious, the contradictory thoughts manage to disable some part of one's brain function; maybe as a defense mechanism or as a last tool of gathering control. Because We're Not the Same: https:/...
Chapter 71: A Bit Closed Off 31.03.2022 20:19
Revelations and re-evaluations can come from everywhere and in any situation. Sometimes one's friend tells an innocent remark that will bring out a truly disturbing thought, and sometimes one does things without realizing them until they are pointed out to them. One of these revelations may be that despite having a long relationship with people, one can still remain a bit closed off.
Chapter 70: The 15th Century 24.03.2022 20:18
Different parts of the world function on different calendars, and one such calendar remains to be the Persian one. With the year 1401 reaching the mortal coil, a new century has dawned: the 15th century. The new century, which marks the beginning of so much more and the contemplation on what has came and went before. Bill Making Stuff: https://www.youtube.com/c/billmakingstuff
Chapter 69: Nice 18.03.2022 20:19
Sometimes the needs of a joke outweighs the need of clarity. When a joke stares at one right in the eye, no matter how derivate or how repeated, its call needs to be answered. Even if that joke is as tired and overused as a number that every child from the age of 10 will snicker at, sometimes one gets to the episode with the number "69" on it, and has to just audible sigh: "Nice". Yorick Radio Pro...
Chapter 68: One Insecure S.O.B. 10.03.2022 20:19
Insecurity is one ailment that resembles the mythical Hydra. For each head one cuts off, two more sprung out more resilient than before and more bloodthirsty than ever. The Hydra feeds on negativity and increases it tenfold. So when one's life is riddled with insecurity it grows harder and harder to escape its ever present claws. When one is down, the shadows of insecurity run high. Bonus content...
Chapter 67: What a Wonderful World to Have a Quarter-Life Crisis in 03.03.2022 20:18
When a year passes in one's life, the prospect of reaching the end line becomes clearer. Though a birthday is a joyous occasion of celebrating the life that wasn't blown out for a full year, it is also a stark reminder that what remains is getting more scarce. So when a birthday is passed, it might have good consequences to lounge back and reflect on how one's life has been spent. TGTBTI - Sir Gaw...
