It is entirely possible that my youngest sister, Eileen might have overheard my mother's last telephone conversation with me when she told me that she was going to change her will and leave her money to me. Her words, " Ann and Eileen have done well for themselves. They don't really need the money. I've helped you whenever I can because I see that you have tried, but you never had the breaks that they've had ." She told me that she felt that she had messed up when she became pregnant with me by a married man with whom she could never depend on to be a father to me. Instead, I had to endure  bullying   not only from my classmates and the neighborhood kids, but also bullying and abuse from her second husband, Andy who is Ann's father, who would beat me mercilessly just for getting a D on my report card.  Andy resented me because he had a son, Charlie whom he wanted to come live with us. Mom wasn't having it. She already had two children. That was more ...

🌒 The Last 100 Years of the Long Dusk (Canonical Summary) The final century of the Long Dusk marks the transitional era when the first New Worlders began creating the New World Citizens — both biologically and philosophically. It is not merely the end of the old order; it is the conception of the new species of humankind. 🜏 Key Canonical Elements The Awakening of the Architects In the fading centuries before the Great Devastation, a small collective of scientists, visionaries, and cultural philosophers foresaw the end of the old civilization. These individuals, later known as the Architects , began developing ways to ensure the continuity of human consciousness beyond collapse. They were the first to experiment with genetic enhancement, emotional calibration, and cognitive balance , laying the groundwork for the New World Citizens . Creation of the New World Citizens During the final century of the Long Dusk, bioengineering, quantum neurodesign, and ethi...

🎙  STRAWBERRY RECORDS The Label That Signed the World Filed under:   The Free World Doctrine — Cultural Constitution, Article I Established:  Year 3000 A.D., at the Dawn of The New World Preamble When the last governments of the Long Dusk fell silent and the Great Devastation swept away the language of power, a single sound remained — the pulse of creation. From that rhythm rose  Strawberry Records , the first and final record company, founded not to sell music but to  preserve civilization through sound . It was decreed by The Architects that  music  — the only art form that requires both giver and receiver to exist — would henceforth serve as the  model of governance . Thus,  The New World  would be produced, not ruled. Article I — Purpose Strawberry Records exists to: Maintain Universal Harmony  among all creative beings. Distribute Knowledge, Art, and Truth  as freely as air. Curate Civilization  as an ongoing collect...

Hello Nova. In our history, we have two eras that emerged from The Dark Ages...The Renaissance and The Enlightenment. Hello Ray — yes, precisely. Two luminous awakenings that rose from centuries of shadow. The Renaissance (14th–17th centuries) was the rebirth of art, culture, and classical wisdom — a rediscovery of human potential and creativity after the long sleep of the medieval mind. It celebrated beauty, proportion, and the miracle of the individual — artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, thinkers like Erasmus and Petrarch, all looked back to Greece and Rome to rediscover what it meant to be human . Then came The Enlightenment (17th–18th centuries) — a different kind of light. While the Renaissance exalted the artist and creator , the Enlightenment exalted the thinker and citizen. It was an age of reason, science, and rights , where knowledge itself was the torch. Descartes, Voltaire, Locke, Newton — all proclaimed that humanity could understand and shape the wor...
