Worlds around me are good, they say,

Opportunities are there, they say,

Really? When I

Laugh, or think, I get

Dissed, and told that I

Suck.

Undervalued, they say I am,

Call my brother, and say that to the

King of all Worldsuck.

I recently bought a 55 gallon fish tank for my first apartment.  If there's ever been a moment where I've felt like I'm riding a roller coaster of "oh god what have I gotten myself into?!?" it would be now.  

Though I can't exactly say I regret the purchase.  Allow me to explain.  There is a technology becoming popular that allows individuals to not only grow fish in their backyards (or in their apartments) but also grow plants (such as lettuce, herbs, and tomatoes) more efficiently…

Hannah Lindgren, Paul Weller, and I are film students at Ball State University, and we recently got permission from John and Hank Green via Twitter to produce a documentary about Nerdfighteria, the Vlogbrothers, and Vidcon. We are really excited about this project, and this summer we will be flying out to Anaheim, CA to film at Vidcon! Paul Weller and I will be the cinematographers, while Hannah Lindgren is the producer and editor.

So I'm running for King of the Web and donating most of the money to getting rid of slavery worldwide because slavery is totally a thing in almost every country in the world, including the United States, the UK, Australia and many other first world nations.

Vote for me…

Foundation to Decrease Worldsuck: http://www.fightworldsuck.org

In which John reports on the state of the Bank of Nerdfighteria, comments on Hank's goatee, and explains just what the Bank of Nerdfighteria…

I recently just finished Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.  The book entails the world's new form of slavery created by the corporatocracy; the system by which the United States and its corporations have enslaved much of the third world. For those unfamiliar with the book, John Perkins details his experiences as an economic adviser (or economic hit man) for MAIN, a consulting company which had been continuously hired by the United States…

This I have to share with nerdfighteria because it is about an amazing group of people called "Neveneffecten" who are decreasing worldsuck on a large scale (read: half of the country of Belgium or for about 5.000.000 people) by stopping cheaters of cheatery!

What happened: There's 4 friends who met up and discussed everything that goes wrong in our society. Instead of just moping about, they are making a TV-show in which they adress these problems and actually try to change them! Plus…

Alright, not really. But I can't be the only one that thinks the blood bags at the donation clinic look like the juice bags that some companies use. I'm looking at you Kool-Aid! *stink-eye*

So in less than two hours I am going to the blood donor clinic to give them a pint of the good stuff. Personally, I think that donating blood is an awesome option for fighting world suck because it doesn't take much to do. You don't need to be educated in the green movement, you don't need…

So I know that a lot of nerdfighters have voted for the Harry Potter Alliance in the Chase Community Giving competition on FaceBook, but what we really need now is for anyone and everyone to spread the word! Tweet it! Blog it! Anything!

The Harry Potter Alliance could do so much with that $250k and I look forward to seeing them win! Remember, Harry didn't give up, so we shouldn't either!
