Seven years ago today, I moved to New Hampshire as part of the Free State Project, a movement of freedom-minded individuals dedicated to making the world a better place starting with one small state. This is my story.
The riots and violence that have been sweeping certain parts of the US surrounding police brutality incidents are scary, and have made many people feel less safe. But in the long run, could they have the effect of making us MORE safe, not in and of themselves, but by addressing the root causes of our lack of safety?

In today's political climate people are more divided than ever. Former friends and neighbors are attacking each other over increasiningly trivial differences, and the advent of the political mask has made it even easier to hate your fellow man. Is there a way out of this? Yes, there is. At the very least, there's a few things you can try to still stay connected with your fellow humans, even if they disagree with you.

One of the key tenets of libertarianism is that government, an organization solely wielding the legitimized use of force in a modern society, is the lone threat to the liberty of its citizens. It is historically true that some of the most egregious infringements on liberty have been perpetuated by governments around the world. However, I'm here to tell you that it's actually centralization, not only government, that you should be wary of.

Why have so many libertarians, who are supposed to be above the left-right paradigm, nonetheless fallen neatly into a left-vs.-right mentality? Why are they so invested in who wins the 2020 US presidential election, and attack people they would otherwise agree with based on voting differences? Here's some speculation as to why, and what to do about it.

We hear lots of talk about the public health, and our responsibility to not endanger others during a pandemic. But let's break down what responsibility we, as individuals, personally have, what we have control over, and who should have a say in our actions.

Back in 2014 I documented what was the first known purchase of a car entirely with Bitcoin in New Hampshire. While many people have bought big-ticket items with cryptocurrency more recently, back then this was pretty revolutionary stuff. Enjoy the throwback!

It has become fashionable to criticize white people in certain segments of modern society, and some of the most aggressive of such critics are, in fact, white people. But are they really self-hating, or is there a subconscious agenda to gain the upper hand against different white people?
