Creation doesn’t save. Art stabilises. That’s why art continues after belief has died. Not because it promises something— But because consciousness cannot stop itself. The will to create isn’t heroic. It’s involuntary. A reflex. The art of futility A spoken monologue I don’t make art because it matters. I make it because consciousness produces excess. And excess demands release. That’s the first lie we’re taught—that art points toward truth. Truth doesn’t need us. It existed before our gestures and will remain after our silence. Art isn’t revelation. It’s a regulation. An overdeveloped mind can’t remain idle. Thought accumulates. Pressure builds. Expression becomes a discharge—not a message. This isn’t noble. It’s biological. Paintings. Texts. Sounds. Images. All variations of the same maneuver. Not transcendence . Containment . Once you see this, ambition collapses. Influence. Legacy . Relevance. These are metaphysical debts art can no longer pay. The work is finished the mome...

Beyond Speed and Force - The Importance of Adaptability and the Bigger Picture
Lead like a Strategic Gamer
In any competitive situation, whether it’s a game, creating art, leading a new initiative, or facing life’s challenges, wisdom and foresight are more important than speed and force. The most significant victories are achieved by those who can see the bigger picture, adapt to change, and remain patient and courageous under pressure. Wisdom and Foresight: Keys to Success in Any Competitive Situation
Can You Really Game on a Mac Pro?
JJFB Bennett Finds Out—The Hard Way!
🎮 Gaming enthusiasts, Apple die-hards, and digital strategists, brace yourselves! JJFB Bennett, our fearless (and slightly stubborn) content creator, embarked on a noble quest: to prove his gaming prowess to his three sons. Armed with his Apple Mac Pro M2, he envisioned glorious Counter-Strike victories, lightning-fast reflexes, and tactical domination. The reality? A laggy, glitch-filled disaster that made a PowerPoint presentation look fast.
The Counter-Strike Crisis
JJFB’s Apple Mac Pro, usually a high-performance machine, became an uncooperative relic when faced with Counter-Strike. Bullets moved in slow motion, characters teleported randomly, and the game transformed into a slideshow narrated by frustration. It turns out that even the mighty M2 chip can’t save you from MacOS gaming limitations.
A Ray of Hope? Assassin’s Creed and a Long-Awaited Revelation
Decades ago, one of his sons recommended Assassin’s Creed, raving about its historical accuracy. Like any all-knowing dad, JJFB ignored this advice. Now, years later, the memory resurfaced. Maybe—just maybe—his son had a point.
Determined to salvage his gaming aspirations, JJFB turned to the all-knowing digital oracle: ChatGPT. The verdict? Macs are not ideal for gaming. But JJFB, being a “staunch old fella” (read: stubborn), refused to back down.
Enter Parallels: The Pricey Workaround
A new strategy emerged: Parallels, a virtual machine that runs Windows on a Mac. After coughing up some hard-earned cash, JJFB was greeted with… a massive watermark. Windows wasn’t activated. More money was needed. The rage boiled. Was it worth another $303 to fight this ridiculous battle?
What’s Next? Steam, More Chaos, or Total Defeat?
The journey isn’t over! Will JJFB conquer his Mac’s limitations and finally download Steam? Or will the absurdity of running Windows on Mac claim another victim?
📢 Subscribe to JJFB Bennett’s YouTube Channel to witness the next chapter of this chaotic experiment!

Situation - The Tempest’s Reflection JB , a spaceship pilot, has been placed into a cryo cocoon to revive and transform his life essence. Inside the cocoon, he experiences his mind as a "relentless tempest of clashing thoughts, swirling and churning, mirroring the furious chaos outside of the machine." JB also sees his older self trapped in the same transitory state. The Storm in my Looking Glass A cinematic close-up of JB’s face behind the curved glass of the cryo-cocoon. The glass reflects not the room but a "relentless tempest" of swirling dark clouds and lightning , symbolising his churning thoughts. In the storm's reflection, a ghostly older version of JB is visible, trapped and silent, mirroring the pilot's current state. Cryogenic Rejuvenation Chamber - Night This trapped specter is the true mirror of our pilot's current, suspended state: a mind caught between two ages, the man he was refusing to be silenced, terrified of the man he is about to b...
The Situation - Red Alert JB , a middle-aged mail spaceship pilot . Starship piloting JB is held not by ropes, but by the cryo-unit's nanoweave swaddle —a tight, absolute embrace mimicking paranoiac wrappings. This material presses against him, preventing his shivering flesh from flying apart under the centrifugal force of his panic. He feels a cold burn and constant helplessness sinking in. His anxiety is a crimson klaxon , a "relentless tempest" of warring thoughts. He is mentally back in the cockpit, but the instruments scream in an alien language; every light and warning signifies impending failure. His pure instinct screams ABORT , yet there is no escape route. Confrontation Rising JB is shown the war of impulses tearing him apart—the "lunge and the retreat". His existence is reduced to the strained gasp: "I live for fucks sake, I don't know.” Full Assault a Violet Firestorm JB responds with explosive, automatic violence, his lungs burning from ...
The hand that holds the glamour Between the flick of a lighter and the curl of smoke lies a story told in two parts: the hand that holds the glamor, Between the flick of a lighter and the curl of smoke lies a story told in two parts: the hand that holds the glamor, and the eye that chooses to believe it. The art of the obscure and meaningless In the realm of modernist art , exemplified by Eddie's deliberate embrace of abstraction and mystery , artists have increasingly surrendered their authoritative power of intent to a veil of meaningless vagueness, compelling viewers to co-create meaning from fragmented suggestions rather than receiving a clear, directive vision. Her scalpel-wielded dissections—such as her perforated self-portraits or obscured war images—eschew explicit communication in favour of elusive hints, as she professed a desire to remain "mysterious" and avoid revelation, thereby shifting the burden of interpretation onto the audience in a pseudo-spiritual a...
