why starbreaker.org?

rationalizing my desire in the classic Humean tradition

published on

For your reading convenience, I also provide plain text.

Any reasons I might give for this website’s existence are post-hoc rationalizations. Reason is, after all, nothing but a bratty sub to the passions, and should be bent over and spanked if it even appears to aspire to any higher office.

starbreaker.org exists because I want it to exist. It exists because I have the means and the knowledge to act on my desire. That is all there is to it. Having the ability, in this case, confers upon me the right.

You might also wonder why I’d bother running a website instead of merely settling for social media like a normal person. Well, I was never normal. Normal people don’t post on social media, let alone run websites. And if I’m to be ‘abnormal’, I feel no obligation to be ‘abnormal’ in a way that further enriches the already wealthy. If I want to make rich assholes even wealthier, I can do that at my day job. But if that isn’t enough for you, then keep reading; maybe it might help if you knew what this site is to me:

It’s really this simple, and the reasons don’t really matter: I do it because I damned well can. I do it because I choose to. I do it because only God can stop me, and He has more pressing concerns. (At least, He damned well should; shall not the Judge of all the Earth do right?)
