What's This Mess?
June 2, 2024
Hey there! I go by Jericho. This is my new blog.
What is all of this about? That's a good question. If I'm being perfectly honest, I'm still trying to figure that out myself - and you are going to help me.
See, I want a place where I can talk about what matters to me. I'm Gen X, Liberal and Broke. I'm not interested in trying to be normal, but I'm sure I'm more “normal” and “average” than I would like to admit. I'm just a guy with a lot on his mind and I'm looking for a place to share my thoughts and build some community.
Also - I want to make money. (Don't we all?) I'm currently unemployed and I'm tired of making other people rich and getting treated like garbage for the privilege of doing so.
And, look, if an old Liberal white guy rambling into the ether makes you cringe or makes you nervous or angry or sad, whelp, this probably isn't the place for you. My plan is to frequently talk about politics, money, power, sex, cannabis and rock n' roll. If those things aren't your cup of java, I understand. If you are a Conservative, a Trump voter, a FOX News viewer, you will likely be better off there than here. At the moment, all that'll be here is my content, there won't even be a comments section. So, you and the Russian bots can go jump in the lake.
(The whole “ancient and angry” thing is starting to make some sense, right?)
If you're still here, groovy! Welcome! I've got some big plans. I'm hoping to connect this site to some vlogs. I'm hoping to have plenty of me talking into the camera and maybe some guests to interview. Maybe even some trips here and there. If all goes well, there will be a lot of great stuff connected to this site. Having said that, it will likely NOT go well and you'll get to watch it all blow up in my face. Sounds like fun, right?
In the end, my goal is to entertain you, inform you, form a community with you, make you feel less like you are alone in this weird world annnnd make a living in the process.
Again, welcome. Come back often, there should be plenty of stuff coming.
