Brett Stevens the Blog
I have come to appreciate GoodReads for its fusion between old school internet and nu-school social networking. A lot of things here are minimal, like you might find on Slashdot or the old del.icio.us, and this makes the site more usable than these pop-up heavy horrors which are more interface than content. This is a site for readers, and so it might be time to start a blog here.
My journey began with old school Bulletin Board Systems (BBSes) and an exploration of, uh, computer security, telecommunications, and networking, which were related fields at the time. During the 1980s I ran a number of locally-successful bulletin boards, then moved to the internet with USENET, an FTP archive, and later a web site which became a series of pre-blog-era websites which featured very similar content, namely essays about nihilism and heavy metal reviews. Along the way, I was an early podcast pioneer making radio shows for download in the 1990s.
Since that time, I have produced Brett Stevens essays and books, mostly on nihilism, environmentalism, and avoiding civilization collapse, with more to come. I also work as an editor in my spare time and write nihilist screes and political commentary when I can. This provokes some criticism but you can see how it all links up with a little elbow grease and reading time.
On top of that, sometimes I write about The Tao of Pipe Smoking. Someday I will be mentioned in the annals of the decline and fall of Western Civilization and you will be glad you read this page.
