I will blog for two people, myself and you. As for myself, I will try to navigate the ethical contradictions in which I grew up, with an eye on the future of these ideas. As for you, you are interested in the ways to make money using free stuff.

Thanks for helping me step back far enough to see the gears turning on the machine.
Undeniably,
