You might not know what to say. Or what the right words and labels are. But that doesn’t mean you don’t understand the situation on a deeper level. That’s how you move it forward. You take what’s on offer and adapt to your outcome. It comes from the years of holistic practice of being you. Well done.
Positive affirmations work. Depressingly well when you have trouble believing in them. But do it anyway. What have you got to lose? That sounds like a sales pitch. It’s not. Do what the fuck you want. It’s your life, your spirituality don’t let some guru, online cult or absolutist take the joy of your way being yours from you.
We all get it fucking wrong. That is part of the point. The guy pointing out your mistakes is the one who is furthest from the truth my friend. So, believe in what you know to be true. If only you listen. I am not indulging fantasies or giving carte blanche for unwelcome behaviour, but it is your one life. Live it. That’s what they say.
Controversialist. A title that people give themselves to make themselves seem interesting without any sign of irony at the same time that they are signaling that they are not by their very choice of label only signals what they are really like and what’s important to them.
Argument for argument's sake is pointless. Again, that is just something they say which is bullshit. It helps you hone your argument, even your thinking, but if you’re really engaged it will help you to negotiate any situation. Your mind does need this training, that’s without doubt but not with all of the excessive baggage

Sleepless Dystopian has been the home to Cyberpunk Dystopian writer, storyteller, mischief maker, and behavioural digital and data-driven marketing specialist Sam I Am for around 10 years. Mainly, it has been my dumping ground for my half-written, half-baked projects and my ranting of a political nature.
Now, though, I want to start getting serious here, to make some money from my creative outputs and to offer my services to fellow creatives, activists, and campaigners.
The idea is to create an Indie Publishing and Marketing service. It is a work in progress, but as a Cyberpunk, I want to hack the systems of undue influence and coercive persuasion, turn them on their heads, and use them for good.
This site is also a social network, so you can join it for free and join me on the journey as I rediscover what I am doing here with new meaning and purpose.
Check out my Substack Book Projects, sign up to them to get the latest updates, and when the book is launched you will be sent a link to a free Kindle copy.
