David Boles: Human Meme

Why are we obsessed with venerating the Evildoers among us? We take a look at our like for the bad influences in our culture. Hitler, the KKK, Pigeons, Sports, Criminals and Bad Boys -- they're all here -- waiting for the burning!

Where has the sacred heart gone to find love today? We reckon with -- "The Death of the Old God" -- in an Age where everything is facile and online and untouchable. Sex! Dating! Heathens of the Loveless!

We are illogical beings who rely on logistics to get the work of life, done. We lay out the idea of the logicians who run our lives -- in business and in healthcare -- and the inescapable resolution of the dissolution of our Human Souls in the process.

The Marvel Comics Universe comes alive in New York City! We take a look at the Luke Cage television series on Netflix. The evildoers and the good fighters tee off in Harlem to rule the soul of the people!

Here's what you get when you combine a Hobson's Choice with a Sophie's Choice. You get a Wicked Monster trapped in a never-ending circle of ferocity! We explore the mind of us, and how we choose to make decisions while actively deciding not to be involved in anything that can later be used against us. 

If you want to be widely understood, be universally clear, and contextual. We share secrets of the mistakes we've made in a long -- social media tail -- career. Context is everything, and it can always be shared if you explain well. "Katzenfutter" and "World of the Day" and "Word-Smithy" and "Three's Company" -- forever!

Here is the speech Hillary Clinton needs to give to Millennials. We share the speech we wrote for Hillary Clinton to win the Millennials vote!

How do we label things in the Internet of things? We insult you, and offends you, as we step through a generation, or two, of naming conventions -- from retarded to Autistic, from lazy to Fibromyalgia, from antisocial to Asperger's Syndrome. All outrage, all the time!

Does your love backup have a backup? The universe wants us to be one thing and not a multiplicity, but computer systems were built to copy us -- sometimes in uneven and unwanted ways. We wonder about the doppelgangers of us, and how many backups is too many -- and why redundant love is something all children require.

Are we only our jobs? We ask the important questions of us -- are we our work, are we our dreams, as we something else -- or are we only what others expect us to be in the end?

The Art of Adaptation is not for the weak-willed. We share methods of adaptation, and of divining meaning into the essence of everything. In order to adapt, you must first humble yourself, and then submit -- and we provide examples from Columbia University in the City of New York and in the higher life of Jewish actor, Steven Hill. 

Will the 2016 presidential election be decided by the non-involvement of Millennials? We think it so -- and we dig into the depths of the emptiness of us -- to unearth a generation that was born aimless, and amiss. 

New Twitter friend Ashleigh Bonner asks for a podcast about trust. This, is that, podcast! We answer Ashleigh's inquiries, and wonderings, about the nature of us -- and the test of us -- when it comes to living together as a society. 

What happens to those left behind -- the traumatized, and the grieving? In this podcast follow-up to -- "Does Disappeared Mean Murdered?" -- we reflect on what it means to find success in storytelling as we share a letter from a grieving stranger, and shines an example on traumatic memory, in the example of Lt. Joe Kenda, star of the Homicide Hunter television show on the Investigation Discovery channel.

How do you get Verified on Twitter and Facebook? Don't ask us -- because we have no idea -- even though we're finally Verified on both Facebook and Twitter. Listen along as we share some schemes and thoughts and doables for winning the social media Verification day!

“As we are connected, so shall we remain in the dark.” That quote is investigated in this podcast about living virtually and in reality. Do we know how dependent we are on power and the internet? Can a piece of string save us? How long is a piece of string?

Here are the stories of fellow Lincoln, Nebraskans Wendy Hile, Oscar Long and Gina Bos -- all either murdered, or presumed dead. We investigate what it means to go missing in the real world, and how we deal with the not knowing of what happened to the murdered, and the beloved, around us.

What's the easiest way to control the most people? We share thoughts on the methods and the memes used to control thought, and behavior -- from medication, to religion, to education, to womb manipulation.

Have we finally burned the Patriotism out of 9/11? Will we ever get over the attack that paralyzed New York City? Must we replay the murder of almost 3,000 people in real time, every single year? We take on what it means to be an American -- and we add Colin Kaepernick, and Sandy Hook, and the Civil War, and San Bernardino, and George W. Bush, and the NFL, and morning TV news readers -- to the fire!

We corrupt our Aesthetic and Education and Values through carelessness. We take apart all the memetics we claim to culturally care about, and he disassembles it all into non-organic parts -- The Kardashians, Justin Bieber and Britney -- plus, The Others!
