Coming in March 2026: Flowers! When flowers appeared, nothing was ever the same. They are the world’s great collaborators and creators. Writing this book transformed how I see life’s history and future. Cooperation, beauty, and illusion transform the world. Can't wait to share these stories

I don’t care about the hypothetical condemnation of fascists in a future history book; the fascists should be afraid of the strength of humanity here and now, they should either run and hide from the light for eternity or reject their wicked ways and atone for their actions
