I’ve only ever won one world record—in 2008—and it was a city group record. I was one of thousands, and while it was nice to see my name with an asterisk, you’d have to dig through a long list of people to even notice it.

For 2026—or, if I move fast, December 2025—I’m going for a personal world record. I’ve got a few in mind, and I’ve already started the journey. Maybe one day I’ll go for the most world records.

As someone with the Fame Gene, the attempt alone—the thrill of possible failure—will be electrifying. Of course, I expect victory. And this time? This time, I’m taking the risk fully—I might actually let myself be famous.

I’m doing this not just for me, but for my clients. None of them on the fame track have world records, and most scoff at the idea of achieving one. I’ll show them what pure willpower can achieve.

Of course, sometimes you get distracted, so this is the stage where I wake up and decide: I’m going to tie this attempt to ongoing projects. That way, I can kill two serial killers with one bullet—ambition and action in a single strike.

 I had hoped to build something remarkable with Hot Appolo, but after months without the promised retainer, I opened the door to other opportunities. What began as an exclusive partnership became a freelance mission, helping half a dozen artists with networking, social media, and guerrilla marketing.

Now I’m working closely with my first true rising artist. It’s early, but I’ve already helped them map their gigs and production schedule—taking them from first shows to a string of booked events. Maybe soon we’ll get them into one of Toronto’s musical secret societies or an artist mentorship circle.

My role is the magic nudge—subtle, almost invisible, yet vital. Artists are wanderers; they’ll keep walking regardless, but the right nudge can turn meandering into momentum.

And while James still has the head start—years of self-promotion, discipline, and a full year of nudging before things began to click—I can’t help suspecting that, if this new act stays hungry, we might surpass him within a few years. Then I’ll have not one, but two major successes under my belt—more, if we count the others still waiting for their moment.

 A nutritional assessment for — salmon, fried potatoes, broccoli, bagel, and tea — including nutrients, balance, and possible deficiencies or excesses:

---

🥗 Macronutrient Summary

Component	Source	Approx. Amount	Assessment
Protein	Salmon	✅ Excellent (~20–25g per 100g salmon)	High-quality protein with all essential amino acids.
Carbs	Fried potatoes, bagel	✅ Moderate–High	Complex carbs (potato) + refined (bagel). Slightly heavy on refined flour.
Fats	Salmon (good), frying oil (depends)	⚠️ Mixed	Omega-3s from salmon (EPA/DHA) are anti-inflammatory; frying oil may add oxidized or trans fats if reused.

---

🌿 Micronutrient Breakdown

Nutrient	Key Sources	Benefit	Deficiency/Excess Symptoms
Vitamin D & Omega-3	Salmon	Heart, brain, mood	Deficiency → fatigue, low mood, joint pain
B Vitamins (esp. B12, Niacin)	Salmon, bagel	Energy, nerve health	Deficiency → tiredness, brain fog
Vitamin C	Broccoli	Immunity, antioxidant	Deficiency → easy bruising, slow healing
Iron & Zinc	Salmon, broccoli	Blood & immune health	Deficiency → pale skin, weakness
Potassium	Potatoes, broccoli	Muscle, blood pressure	Deficiency → cramps, fatigue
Fiber	Broccoli, potatoes (if skin on)	Digestion	Deficiency → constipation
Calcium	Tea (small), broccoli	Bone health	Low intake overall in this meal
Sodium	Likely added when frying	May be high	Excess → bloating, blood pressure

---

☕ Tea Note

• Black or green tea provides antioxidants (polyphenols) but can slightly inhibit iron absorption — not a problem if iron intake is balanced elsewhere.

---

⚖️ Overall Balance

Strengths:

• Excellent protein & omega-3s

• Good mix of vitamins and minerals

• Contains both fiber and antioxidants

Weaknesses:

• A bit high in refined carbs and fried fats

• Low in calcium and vitamin E

• Iron absorption might be slightly reduced if tea is consumed right with the meal

---

💡 Suggestions

• Use olive oil or bake potatoes for healthier fat.

• Add a calcium-rich side (like yogurt or milk in tea).

• Include a fruit (e.g., orange) to boost vitamin C and improve iron absorption.

She RAGED at My Sign – And Accidentally DESTROYED Her Own Argument

Capitalism is also a scam — or dead, more correctly. Adam Smith’s world is long gone. Socialism too, in its glossy textbook version, was just another pitch that never delivered.

Capitalism’s trick: it promised free markets, opportunity, and competition, but the road always bends toward monopoly, enclosure, rent-seeking, and oligarchy. The “invisible hand” was really just a cartel’s hand in your pocket.

Socialism’s trick: it promised collective ownership and liberation, but what it usually delivered was bureaucracy, party elites, and suppression. Instead of “the people,” it gave us a new class of managers playing aristocrat.

Feudalism 2.0: both systems slide back into hierarchy. Capitalism piles ownership into corporate castles; socialism piles power into state palaces. Either way, most folks end up as tenants on somebody else’s land.

Cyberpunk reality: what we’ve got now isn’t Smith or Marx but a mash-up: data-lords, finance-kings, algorithmic serfs. Corporations and states blur together, but the pyramid remains the same.

Smith’s dream is dust, Marx’s promise never showed up, and what’s left is something medieval in neon.

The Key question - how to build a society that protects material security for the broad middle, while preventing extremes of power (whether corporate or state) from reproducing feudal patterns.

Some solutions thinkers across history have pointed toward:

1. Widespread Property/Owning Class

   • Jefferson’s idea of “small landholders” updated: broad ownership of housing, pensions, and productive assets (not just consumer goods).

   • Employee ownership co-ops, sovereign wealth funds (like Norway), or universal stock dividends could spread capital returns.

2. Strong Guardrails on Power

   • Anti-monopoly enforcement so no single firm/platform dominates.

   • Political term limits, campaign finance rules, and transparency to block state capture by oligarchs.

3. A Universal Material Floor

   • Healthcare, education, and basic housing security guaranteed. That shrinks the leverage elites have over ordinary people.

   • Universal basic income or negative income tax could simplify support without bureaucratic traps.

4. Middle-Class–Centric Taxation

   • Progressive taxes that prevent dynastic wealth and break up concentrations of capital without punishing moderate success.

   • Land value tax (Henry George’s idea) to stop feudal rentierism.

5. Localism + Digital Checks

   • Local community decision-making where possible, instead of everything flowing through megacorps or distant bureaucracies.

   • Open-source digital infrastructure and data rights to prevent “cyber-lordship.”

6. Cultural Ethos

   • A culture that valorizes enough rather than endless accumulation. Historically, middle classes thrive in societies that honor balance, not extremes.

In essence: a broad property-owning democracy with a universal safety net, strong anti-feudal guardrails, and cultural norms against concentrated power.
