Episode 3 — “The Karmic Ripples: Patterns, Not Punishment” (Podcast)Series: The Thinking Stack | Karma Decluttered | Layer 3: Systemic Foresight [Systems View]You’ve shredded the karma-as-moral-policing myth—now it’s time to dismantle the bigger illusion: that karma is linear, fair, and personal.

Episode 01: Kashmir: A Foggy History Built on Legal Landmines [Cognitive Cleanse]

Before the slogans and bloodshed, there was a sale deed. This episode strips Kashmir to its atomic truths—1846's sale, 1947's rushed accession, a plebiscite that never came, and 70 years of manipulated numbers and contrasting narratives. We demolish the mythologies and surface the ...

Colossal Biosciences claims they’ve done it—brought back the dire wolf.
Romulus, Remus, and Khaleesi are here. Cute pups. Big teeth. Bigger questions.

🎙️ Episode 26 — Is Love Just an Evolutionary Trick for Reproduction? (Love is a Lie?)

We dissect the sacred cow of monogamy — and ask if polyamory is evolution, ...

🎙️ Episode 23 — The Tate Bible: Gospel of Turd by Andrew Tate
Hint: When ego smells like wisdom, someone’s monetizing your trauma.

He didn’t write a book.
He wrote a mirror — and called it masculinity.
But stare too long, and what you’ll see isn’t strength. It’s survival-mode shame wearing sunglasses and shouting at women.

This episode?
We gut The Tate Bible — page by page — and reveal the psychological sewage behind the swagger.
