  • My radical suggestions for the next pope—and the future of the catholic church

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    May 4, 2025

    With the recent death of Pope Francis on April 21 at the age of 88, there is some speculation as the world awaits his successor. This is the time for a changing of the guard, and what better time there is than now for me to offer up a few suggestions pertaining to my hope for the future of the catholic church. The suggestions I have in mind are quite controversial, so let me first give a disclaimer.

    In no way am I religious, and I personally do not care what the church does, but a lot of people in this modern age still believe in religion, and I respect that. To each his own. On the other hand, the church has a lot of influence on the world stage.

    If they have that much influence, they should be setting a good example, but the catholic church has not been able to escape the numerous sex abuse scandals throughout the years, most notably under the watch of Benedict XVI that led to his untimely resignation. I think I have the solution, and as controversial as it may be, I hope you will consider it.

    First of all, may I suggest making history once again, this time by selecting a Black pope? If Obama could become America’s first Black president, Megan Markle could be the first woman of mixed heritage who marries into British royalty, and Pope Francis could become the first Hispanic pope, then certainly there can also be a Black pope. It would add a lot more respect to our image in the world, and set another example to the youth as to what they can achieve.

    Therefore, I am suggesting for there to be a black pope, and one who allows priests and nuns to marry. I am of the view that many of the sex abuse scandals in the church are directly caused by sexual frustration that arise from priests not being allowed to marry, and that cases of sex abuse within the church would drastically diminish if they were allowed to marry.

    What was even the point of priestly celibacy within the catholic church in the first place? How is it that protestant ministers are allowed to marry, but not catholic priests? This is why people think that catholics are a bunch of pedophiles and homosexuals.

    Sexual desire is like a powerful volcanic eruption that is not to be trifled with, and trying to pretend otherwise can truly torture your soul. I believe that the subsect of the population who truly possesses the discipline to effectively maintain celibacy are very few and far between.

    If you are not one of them, then you are playing with your own head by believing that you are, and if you want to play with your head, the least you can do is grab some lotion and excuse yourself to the restroom, don’t forget the magazines.

    Let the masters of celibacy join the priesthood, it is not for everyone. But even so, they can still relax some of their rules. There are some who truly want to dedicate their lives to service, but the number one thing that’s stopping them is the rule of celibacy.

    My hope is that the future pope, whomever he may be, will consider this article, and follow in the lead of the late Pope Francis who had already begun relaxing some of the rules by allowing some men in very few locations to join the priesthood after they were already married.

    If not, then why not allow them to hire escorts to satisfy their needs? As blasphemous as that may sound, it’s still better than to allow for the very preventable abuse of some poor alter boy.

    The only thing I can think of that’s better than that is for religion as a whole to be done away with as the masses begin to awaken to the power of their own potential, and seek truth from within.

    Until next time, adieu.

  • Why he broke bad – The cautionary tale of Walter White

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Apr 27, 2025

    It is the end of the month, and time for another review. Our muse for the month of April is Walter White, the tragic antihero protagonist of “Breaking Bad,” portrayed by Bryan Cranston. Spoilers are ahead, so I recommend watching the entire series before reading or watching any reviews for it.

    Breaking Bad was an American television crime drama created by Vince Gilligan. It lasted for five seasons between 2008 and 2013, and featured high school chemistry teacher Walter White (Bryan Cranston), who became a notorious meth dealer and went by the alias “Heisenberg,” after being diagnosed with lung cancer on his 50th birthday.

    It all started one day when Walt’s brother in law, Hank Schrader (Dean Norris) went on a sting and took him along for the ride. While waiting in the car, Walt spotted one of his former students, Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) as he was attempting to flee the scene of the sting. Walt confronted Pinkman and blackmailed him into helping him sell crystal meth. The deal was that Walt cooks, and Jesse sells.

    In that moment, Walt broke bad, and it wasn’t long before the middle-aged, middle-classed suburban school teacher was boondocking in the deserts outside of Albuquerque, cooking methamphetamine out of an RV.

    Walt would soon clash with other dealers such as Tuco Salamanca (Raymond Cruz) and Gustavo Fring (Giancarlo Esposito), often involving conflicts of interest relating to deals they made. But what made Walt break bad? Was his midlife crisis caused by a surprising cancer diagnosis, or was that only the trigger for a much deeper cause?

    Before the beginning of the series, Walt had one third stakes in “Gray Matter,” a tech startup that he co-founded along with Elliot (Adam Godley) and Gretchen Schwartz (Jessica Hecht). Not only was Walt one of Gray Matter’s co-founders, but he was also engaged to Gretchen at some point.

    Eventually, he sold his share of Gray Matter for five thousand dollars and ghosted Elliot and Gretchen. As soon as Walt’s back was turned, Elliot married Gretchen and Gray Matter took off into a multi-billion dollar industry.

    Walt felt like he was robbed of his chance in life to make it big. He felt cheated by the very people he once thought were his friends. He grew bitter and resentful towards Elliot and Gretchen, and blamed them for ruining his chance.

    On his fiftieth birthday, the cancer diagnosis he received was the straw that broke the camel’s back. Something inside of him snapped when he realized that he spent his entire life being a husband, father and a schoolteacher, and had nothing to show for it. Not only that, but he was about to die, and had nothing to show for his life.

    This kind of thing can torture a man’s soul, and it caused him to reflect on all of his life’s mistakes. He ultimately chose to break bad in an attempt to chase after the laughing phantom of his youth.

    Initially, Walt started cooking crystal meth in order to ensure that his family would be in want for nothing after he was dead. However, the last time he saw his wife Skylar (Anna Gunn) towards the end of the series, Walt finally confessed that he wanted to build his own empire in order to compensate for selling his shares in Gray Matter. But above all else, he simply liked the thrill of the hunt.

    And there you have it folks, the real reason why Walter White broke bad. This is similar to an episode of “Batman: The Animated Series,” titled, “If you are so smart, why aren’t you rich.” In this episode, Edward Nygma (John Glover) dons his riddler alter ego for the first time to exact vengeance against his boss, Daniel Mockridge (Gary Frank) for firing him and stealing his intellectual property. Another muse deserving its own review.

    Why did Walt sell his Gray Matter Share?

    Walt abruptly broke up with Gretchen after spending a fourth of July weekend with her wealthy family. He sold his Gray Matter share to Elliot shortly thereafter, who subsequently started dating Gretchen, and made her a business partner.

    It was never really explained during the show’s run why Walt ghosted Gretchen so abruptly, but there is a very plausible fan theory out there suggesting that he felt insecure and inadequate in comparison to her wealthy family.

    What might have been?

    If Walt didn’t sell his share in Gray Matter, he and Gretchen would have definitely taken off in every meaningful way possible. He might have never met Skylar. But then again, he probably wouldn’t care too much about starting an affair with Skylar if he’d met her after he was already sitting on top of a billion dollar dynasty.

    The problem is that he didn’t believe in what was possible. He didn’t believe in him and Gretchen as an item, he didn’t believe in the vision they shared for the future of the company, and he allowed his doubts and insecurities to get in the way of what was possible.

    Personal Takeaway:

    The cautionary tale of Walter White serves to remind us to believe in what might be possible, and to be wary of friends who do not share our vision. Walt could have been living the good life, but instead he ended up venturing down a very dark path that he responded to by turning to a life of crime.

    Whatever you do, if you have an idea that you know could be worth millions in the long run, do not allow others to buy you out. You had best believe that they see your vision too, and they want to reap all the benefits for themselves without putting in the blood, sweat and tears that’s required to thoroughly earn it. They have no problem paying you ten thousand dollars today, just so they can legally exclude you from ten million dollars tomorrow. They are not your friends.

    Also, never enter into any deals that require you to give up ownership of your intellectual properties. I recommend retaining creative control so that you can keep earning royalties for the rest of your life plus seventy years. Speaking of royalties, make sure that you copyright your intellectual property. You can do so by visiting https://www.copyright.gov.

    All in all, the Elliot and Gretchen story arc in Breaking Bad was an eye opening cautionary tale. I give it a 5 out of 5 blue crystal rocks, and I’ll see you on the next one.

  • Nobody wants to work anymore??

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Apr 6, 2025

    I have come to find that in recent years, employers often complain that people don’t want to work anymore. The first time that I heard them complain was during the Covid pandemic of 2020 that created a labor shortage on a massive scale.

    People returned to work the following year, hoping that things would be different, but were only met with more disrespect than ever before. They were now puzzled as to what happened.

    We were all kind of hoping that the pandemic would humble our employers somewhat, and that they were calling us to return to work with a different approach in mind. But the opposite was proven to be true as greed and corruption was at an all time high.

    Now there seems to be a mass exodus as people are walking off these jobs left and right. Employers are once again complaining that people don’t want to work anymore.

    Only now, with the pandemic out the way, they make it sound like people don’t want to work because they are lazy. But are the people truly lazy? Funny how employers neglect to tell you about the part that they played in the mass exodus.

    There was a time in America when the 40 hour work week was sustainable. In 1982, a guy could work 40 hours a week in a factory or warehouse, or as a mailman, and was able to afford a car and a house in the suburbs with a nicely manicured lawn, and a white picket fence.

    He had a tradcon wife who could afford to stay home and bake pies all day, a couple of kids and a dog. He was able to live the American dream solely off his factory salary with a few extra perks, and then retire comfortably after thirty years with a lifelong pension. It was fucking beautiful.

    Not only that, but on a more social level people were generally more decent and respectful despite basic human shortcomings.

    Fast forward to 2025, and it’s damn near impossible to buy a house, the rent is through the roof, minimum wage is higher than ever before but inflation quickly wipes it out all the same.

    On a more antisocial level, people are stupid and racist, and one is literally punished for even daring to believe that they are allowed to live a half-decent quality of life. Employees are treated like expendable cattle, surveillance is gradually chipping away at your rights to privacy, and some of the absolute most despicable people on the planet seem to hold all the cards.

    This new system is more oligarchal, the former was capitalism. That is the kind of paradigm shift that occurs whenever one’s culture is infiltrated by an enemy. This is nothing new. It has happened time and again throughout all of history, but now is America’s turn.

    For 18 years, I have been living in the very spot where the United States was once located, and I want to find my way back to the United States. Now we can either live in a cabin in the woods, and live like it’s 1982, or we can learn as much as we possibly can about this “brave” new world and find a way to make it work somehow.

    I believe that people are inherently innovative. Once you become truly motivated and you are in the mode, it is next to impossible to be lazy. It often gets to where people have to literally beg you to take a break, or go to bed for the night.

    People have to literally drag you to the dinner table and spoon feed you at that point. Once you get to that level, laziness takes on a whole new meaning because neglecting your physical upkeep is also a form of laziness.

    It isn’t that people don’t want to work, they just don’t want to be abused by a blasted bunch of ingrates who themselves are lazy. If push comes to shove, they would rather live in their damned cars before they swallow another ounce of disrespect.

    Why were they even begging us to return to work if they neither value, nor appreciate us? We are tired of being abused. We want to work, but not for other people. We want to work for ourselves.

    We don’t want change, we want things to be different. Because if you say you want change, don’t get upset when the man tosses some literal change in your direction. What may be a small fortune to you is only a tax write-off for him.

    We want to earn an honest living instead of feeling peer pressured into playing office politics and sick mind games with a bunch of stupid fakes all day. Imagine a work day where all you literally had to do was show up on time, clock in, do your job, get paid a sustainable wage and bounce.

    When last I checked, it was much later than June 19, 1865, but it has become painfully obvious to me that they are attempting to sneak slavery in through the back door by means of oligarchism.

    Only this time, it’s not just the black man who will be enslaved, but members of every race who don’t achieve financial freedom up until a certain deadline that is set to occur in the not so distant future.

    But it is our responsibility to do some soul searching in order to discover our respective niche, and then create a successful business around that niche. Or did you truly believe that nature formed our bodies just for them to be broken by a greedy, sadistic bunch of pigs, all in the name of profit?

    We were all born with one unique gift, or another. The problem is that most people tend to neglect their gift, often due to a misguided sense of envy towards another person’s gift.

    As such, they end up being stuck competing in the deadly rat race for scarce benefit and spoils where they are surrounded by a bunch of rat bastards, a difficult cycle to break free from.

    When people think about creativity, they instantly assume that it means they will become famous, and not everyone wants to be famous. Some people truly cannot handle fame. But what they fail to realize is that their gift doesn’t necessarily have to be an Oscar worthy talent.

    Perhaps you have liked baking, or interior decorating since childhood. Perhaps you have always liked carving shapes into wood, doing so comes naturally for you. And so you practice everyday a little at a time, not realizing that it will make you a truly legendary carpenter someday.

    Practicing your gift may not grant you A list level fame, but you will nonetheless be famous and highly sought after in some niche circles. Whatever may be, as the saying goes; if you don’t work on your own dreams, someone else will hire you to work on theirs. And while you are working overnight, holidays and weekends for time and a half, they are on a yacht with their girlfriends (or yours), sipping champagne and living the soft life laughing at you.

    If doing some soul searching to discover your niche is your ticket to financial freedom, wouldn’t you take it? Imagine living a soft life of your own where your financial security is not contingent upon pretending to like the people who utterly despise you.

    Finally, let me close by reiterating the question that is the title of this article — is it true that nobody wants to work anymore? The answer is an astounding no. People do want to work, just not for any of you.

    Until next time, adieu.

  • The power of solitude

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Mar 16, 2025

    If a plane goes even 1 mile outside of its designated parameter, it’s far off course, and it’s hard to get back on. The same is true for friend groups that’s wrong for you, or even family for that matter.

    Two’s company and three’s a crowd. A wise man once told me that if you give the devil a ride, he’s going to want to drive.

    Say for instance, you were born into a family of attorneys. Your father is a lawyer, your grandfather is a lawyer, and his father before him was a lawyer. For the entirety of your life so far, you have been told that you must follow in their footsteps. You go along to get along even though you have always wanted to be a singer.

    Legal papers may bore you, but music is your passion. If you don’t break free from among them and take a plunge into the deep blue waters to do some soul searching and seek truth, you will go on believing that law is your passion.

    This would have been most unfortunate because not only have you missed your true calling, but doing so has caused a ripple effect that led to a brain drain in your preferred industry. You could have been the single greatest vocalist of all time. But now, you have allowed someone less deserving to steal your destiny because you think you’re supposed to be an attorney.

    Likewise, over on the wrong side of the tracks, you always wanted to be an attorney. You tell your family and some of your neighbors out of naivety, hoping they would encourage you. Not only do they not support you, but they actually call you a divestor because they all collectively have a crab in a bucket mentality.

    In order for you to get along, you foolishly turn down a scholarship to study abroad just so you can fit the mold for society’s expectation of you. Five years later, you are now a single mother of four with no man in the damn house, flipping burgers for a living. All your old school mates are living the dream, while you can’t even find the time to pick up a book after work.

    Not only do you not know who you are, but the legal profession has also suffered a brain drain. You could have been the most legendary attorney of all time, but now an innocent man being railroaded by the system will lose his case and get sent to the chair because you missed your calling. That condemned man could have gone on to father a son who would’ve found the cure for cancer, but that will never happen now either, and on and on it goes.

    It also doesn’t help that it’s difficult to break out of certain mental conditioning. Once you’re off course, it’s hard to get back on, and it usually takes something truly drastic taking place in your life in order to snap you out of it.

    But before that drastic thing happens, you can choose to take a plunge into the deep blue waters and do some soul searching. What does that look like? It could look like many things, but whatever shape it assumes, solitude is definitely at its core.

    When you shut out the useless noise and clutter, your brain starts talking, and when your brain finally shuts up, your heart starts talking. That’s usually when you remember what you wanted to do when you were fourteen, and still living at home with no responsibilities.

    Solitude can be brutal, especially if you are an extravert, but even if you are not. It is when you are truly alone with no distractions that all the mistakes of your life will flash before your eyes. But it is also when you will discover who you really are.

    Before that, you were seeing yourself through the lens of other people’s perceptions of you, but those perceptions are skewed based on their own biases and subjectivities. If you want to get an unbiased, objective perspective of yourself, you must be willing to enter your isolation arc.

    Not only should you be willing, but also prepared to face whatever you will discover, because all of your life choices and mistakes might hit you like a ton of bricks. It could get pretty intense. You are not going to have any support, you will only have yourself.

    If you are looking for some kind of higher power to be there for you to lean on in those moments, maybe you’re not ready for this. Your isolation arc might even reveal that the higher power in question is not really what you thought it was, but that topic deserves its own article. The bottom line is that the isolation arc is going to screw you raw with no lube, there is no buffer for this.

    But once you are done, your covert enemies will be exposed for what they truly are, and it will then become clear to you exactly why they are your enemies. Most importantly, you will never make another decision out of fear, which means that no one will ever be able to manipulate you. After that, you will essentially become a whole new person, and your trajectory for the future will be back on course. It’s going to be a beautiful day.

  • The pros and cons of Capitalism vs. Socialism

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Mar 9, 2025

    In last week’s article, I speculated on the next four years under Trump as well as outlined my expectations from his administration. But one of the topics I did not touch is the expected end of the welfare state, and how it would affect those who depend upon it.

    This will of course take place in stages as they gradually cut social services one by one. Its impact on the economy will be negative to say the least, as those who depend on those services will become displaced. However, hard as it is to accept, ending the welfare state is a clear step in the right direction.

    First of all, social services have for many decades served as a bridge to help get needy families out of poverty. The grassroots of the welfare state took place sometime circa 1968 during the Johnson administration. That was when planned parenthood programs initially took effect, and disproportionately targeted African-American communities in comparison to other ethnic groups at the time.

    The main requirement for planned parenthood was to be the head of household as a single mother. Many black women at the time felt pressured to kick their man out the house in favor of a welfare check, and as a result of that, many black boys grew up without a strong father figure in the house.

    This dependency mindset is particularly dangerous because it encourages dependency on a system that at any given moment can decide to starve them out. Not only that, but many rules were put in place that limits their sovereignty and autonomy under section 8 housing, similar to what one would expect in communist Cuba under Castro.

    It’s one thing to temporarily use social services as a stepping stone to get ahead in life, and quite another to permanently rely on them. For some, finding their usual spot in the food stamp line every Monday morning is their chosen field, and it is revolting. They are making it bad for those who are actually making use of the opportunity, all while playing right into the hands of the racist, entitled, misandric, communist left who wants to keep them docile and dependent.

    The idea of socialism is that the citizen surrenders his sovereign rights and civil liberties in favor of government handouts. The pro is that he receives the very basics of food, clothes and shelter. But what if those basic needs are met at the expense of some higher purpose?

    Almost like how talk show hosts on commercial radio would rather waste precious airtime to distract you with useless banter when they could have been discussing existentialism and how it could impact your ultimate destiny. The con is that they control too much of your life. The likelihood of missing your destiny is much higher, and to add insult to injury they only provide you with a limited supply under the pretext that they have many mouths to feed.

    We see examples of this in Cuba where food is rationed to one loaf of bread per week, per household. In 1970’s Jamaica where grocery items (often incompatible) were married to each other as bundle deals, and the government controlled the retail price. And finally in 1980’s China where entire families got evicted from welfare camps if they had more than one child per household.

    Capitalism on the other hand allows for the individual to be more responsible in his pursuit of happiness. Though social services are available for those who need it, the onus is on the individual to decide how he would rather eke out a living. Preferably, he would do so by honing his passion, but not everyone is willing to commit to finding out what that even is, which is exactly the point. They don’t have to do any kind of soul searching if they don’t want to. They don’t have to do anything.

    The pro of capitalism is that you retain most of your civil liberties, but the con is that the free market is highly competitive. For that reason alone, you will likely fall through the cracks of society if you don’t figure it out, and do so quickly.

    Your landlord is practicing a form of capitalism when he raises the rent, and your employer is practicing the same form of capitalism when he cuts your hours so you can barely make rent this month. That specific form of capitalism is very vampirical by nature and requires you to bleed in order for others to eat. That is the kind of capitalism that everyone has a fucking problem with, but capitalism in and of itself is not inherently bad.

    It is the very system that this great republic was founded upon back in 1776, that allows for someone who was born in poverty to change their lot in life.

    The same capitalist free market that allows your employer and landlord to abuse you, also allows you to invent something truly life changing and register the patent for it. But you have got to stop doing a job and actually start working if you don’t want others to suck you dry. Socialism allows you to survive, and Capitalism allows you to thrive.

    Is it really worth sacrificing long term goals for short term gain?

  • Prediction of Trump’s second term

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Mar 2, 2025

    On January 20th, 2025, history was made when Donald J. Trump was inaugurated as the 47 president of the United States, thus making him the first two term president who has a gap in between terms.

    This is a most welcome change to the presidency, because it has been four years since this country has seen any real leadership. Now that the gross incompetence of the Biden administration is in our rear view mirror, what could Trump’s second term mean for the future of America, and the world at large. In this article, I will attempt to predict, or speculate on the next four years under Trump.

    First of all, what I admire about Trump is his swift and decisive ability to make a decision without apology. The best example of that was Friday afternoon when he along with Vice President Vance hosted the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the white house.

    Trump made an example out of Zelenskyy after he wasted Trump’s valuable time by declining a cease fire intervention from the Trump administration. Zelenskyy was then essentially kicked out of the white house, and offered the opportunity to return once he decides what he wants to do going forward.

    Zelenskyy will now have to go home empty handed as the bloodshed that’s currently taking place on his soil continues on his watch. This will make Zelenskyy less favorable in the eyes of the Ukrainian electorate, who will likely not re-elect him.

    This latest episode is among the earliest signs of what to expect under the second Trump administration. We have already seen ICE raids being played out all across the country since the end of January, and more to come. Or did you really think that the raids have stopped just because the mainstream media have stopped talking about it around the clock?

    Truth be told, very few immigrants come to this country with the best intentions, myself being one of them. You would think that most immigrants would be grateful for the opportunity to come over here, and do so with the intent of starting a business, purchasing a home, then eventually raise a family and help to uplift their community.

    But no, most immigrants come over here with a cutthroat ghetto mentality to get a normie job and sabotage their colleagues at work. This is not a socio-economic issue, but rather, it is an issue of character.

    If someone had a bad character right from the jump, giving them resources they never had won’t improve their character, but will only further enable them. Having stronger border protection won’t completely eradicate this nuisance, but it will drastically reduce the possibility of inviting more degenerates to come over here. We already have enough of our own problems as it is, and the push to end birthright citizenship is only the first step in the right direction.

    Meanwhile, the donkeys over in the entitled madhouse to the left seem to get the impression that your interest in securing your borders and bringing all the American jobs back home somehow makes you a racist. Why? Because they can’t get a bunch of freebies anymore? The devil with all of them. Let them take a plunge into the deep blue waters and figure it out for themselves.

    During a time when I thought I was one of them, it was only because I was genuinely scared of what I may have had to go through to get to where I wanted to go. But now that I am certain that pain is inevitable, I am more than willing to be fearless in stating how I have always felt. If they were smart, they would use that pain to mold them into who they were always destined to become. They’ll be alright. Or will they?

    Trump represents capitalism, the first real capitalism that we’ve had in this country since the Reagan presidency. None of the Bushes were able to achieve that level of capitalism, and it is our duty as Americans to help Trump bring back the free market of the 80’s, where a guy was free to make a buck from doing what he loves versus what he feels he must.

    But before we can get there, we must first weed out the mental illness that has taken over the status quo and tried to normalize itself within society.

    It is filled with a special kind of envy, malice and entitlement so deep that it blinds all logic and reason. It is a disease, and it must be eradicated. This is not just about ethnic cleansing, but really more about preserving the way capitalism was truly meant to be.

    However, no one is coming to save you. The single role of government within a democracy is to secure the unalienable rights of we the people. It is ultimately up to you to use that liberty to pursue happiness. Read, listen, study, journal, network if you must, but then finally take the necessary first step in order to get ahead.

    Answer the call. Choose the right side of history. This is a fight for the future.

  • Another Life: Twilight Zone episode review

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Feb 23, 2025

    Intro:

    Welcome back to The Buckinchere Transcendence. Here on this blog site, I have started a new feature where I will be reviewing books, short stories and other forms of popular culture on the last Sunday of each month, and I am pleased to announce that this is my first review for the year.

    It covers a 2003 episode of the Twilight Zone revival mini-series titled, “Another Life,” that features a successful rapper whose happy life is constantly interrupted with visions of a brutal police interrogation where he stands accused of murder. Spoilers are ahead, so I recommend that you watch the episode first before reading this review. With that said, let’s begin.

    The Twilight Zone was an American anthology series that ran for five seasons between 1959 and 1964. It was created by Rod Serling who was also the presenter of each episode. The series tackled many social issues of that time, such as greed, prejudice and power, and never failed to deliver without a hint of social commentary.

    After five seasons, and 156 episodes, the original series ended in 1964, but there has since been three revivals, and one 1983 feature film, none of which strayed from the original mantra of the series. The episode that will be featured today was episode 26 from the second revival, hosted by Forest Whitaker. It premiered on February 5, 2003, written by Amir Mann and Brent V. Friedman, and starred Wood Harris as Marvin the tormented rapper.

    The Plot:

    Marvin Gardens had the perfect life. He had the perfect home, a loving wife (Kimberly Elise), and he was a celebrated hip-hop artist, renowned by all. However, very early into the episode, we see that Marvin’s picture perfect life begins to crumble as he becomes haunted with visions of a brutal police interrogation where he stands accused of murdering a police officer.

    The police officers savagely assault Marvin in hopes of getting a confession out of him regarding the whereabouts of the murder weapon. A female officer at the scene pleads with him to make it easier on himself by confessing, but Marvin maintains his innocence, and insists that he is a successful rapper, much to the ridicule of the male officers.

    They tell him that his name is Dwayne Grant, and that he lives in the projects with his sister and their single mother. Meanwhile in another life, Marvin’s visions are affecting his work and his relationships, and people are starting to notice.

    Fearing bad publicity, his wife Jasmine suggests that he sees a psychiatrist (Brian Markinson) who suggests that Marvin’s visions are rooted in repressed memories from his past. Marvin gets belligerent and berates Dr. Sinclair, stating that he worked hard to get to where he is at, and he doesn’t need any phony pills to tell him who he is, and that is when Sinclair morphs into one of the interrogating officers in the holding room as Marvin goes into another vision.

    The visions gradually become more dominant, and it is soon revealed Marvin’s life as a successful rapper is actually a fantasy, and the interrogating officers’ account of him living in the projects is the sad reality of his existence. The police caught the actual killer, but only after they had already beaten Dwayne unconscious.

    The female officer goes to his aid, and discovers some rap lyrics that Dwayne scribbled on a piece of tissue. She is also revealed to have fulfilled the role of Marvin’s wife in Dwayne’s fantasy.

    Analysis:

    It appears that Dwayne was in an intense state of shock during the interrogation, a shock so great that in order to escape, his mind conjured up a powerful fantasy based on his single greatest dream, which is to become a rapper. He also managed to rework the attractive female officer to play the role of his wife in the fantasy, based on her compassionate nature, and her sympathy towards him.

    This is similar to the Joker movie of 2019, where Phoenix’s joker in that film fantasized about being in a relationship with his neighbor Sophie (Zazie Beetz), and enjoyed the thought of her playing a supportive role surrounding his dream of being a stand-up comedian, and laughing at all his jokes. In both instances, the fantasies of Dwayne and the joker became so intense, that it blurred the lines between fantasy and reality.

    A man who fantasizes that a woman who he does not know is his wife, and especially one who is on the opposite end of a power balance is usually deprived of love, as this is a clear sign of desperation. This suggests that Dwayne may have been involuntarily celibate as Phoenix’s joker was in the 2019 film.

    Though it caused a great deal of confusion for Dwayne and the interrogating officers, the fantasy may have actually saved Dwayne, rather than harm him, because he might have snapped and gone mad without it. By delving deep into his fantasy of a perfect life, Marvin was able to save his dream by saving his sanity. In that moment, survival was his only objective, and he had to do whatever it took in order to make it to a place of safety.

    Personal Takeaway:

    I first saw that episode in 2013 while living in a Brooklyn ghetto, somehow managing to survive between jobs while thinking about moving out to LA. The main character of the episode was very relatable to me at the time, due to the fact that we are both black men trying to make it out of a situation to where we would then be able to live out our dreams.

    I found the episode to be very touching, particularly because it made me realize that there is a thin line between existing in a living nightmare, and living the life of your dreams. On the other side of all your fears, doubts and anxieties is everything you could ever possibly dream of. I recently re-watched the episode one Sunday night on the eve of my book release, and found the episode to be every bit as touching and relatable as ever before.

    In addition to Raven Leilani’s Luster novel, this Twilight Zone episode is every bit as much to be commended for me following my dreams and becoming an author. I give this one a 5 out of 5 record albums, and I hope to see you on the next one. Thanks for reading!

  • A post-modern take on Maslow’s Hierarchy

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Feb 9, 2025

    As a human being, one will experience different needs at different times of life. It is a part of being alive, and you will have these needs as long as you remain living. There are different needs that will arise at different times of your life, based on your current story arc. Some needs are more basic than others, such as food, warmth and water. The more basic the need, the more likely it is to be repetitive.

    Of all the philosophers to explore the nuances of the human condition, none has come close to breaking down the hierarchy of needs quite like Abraham Maslow, an American psychologist of Russian-jewish heritage who lived between 1908 and 1970.

    Maslow first proposed the hierarchy of needs in his 1943 paper, “A Theory on Human Motivation,” where he listed a five tier structure containing a group of human needs in ascending order, suggesting that the fulfillment of one need would motivate an individual to tackle the following need on the chain.

    Maslow’s hierarchy is controversial, and contains some inconsistencies. Due to its hierarchical structure, many are of the few that the order of each need must remain intact, as one is not able, or should not be able to skip levels. But in spite of its imperfections, Maslow’s hierarchy is nonetheless the most frequently referenced hierarchy as it pertains to human growth and motivation.

    On the first tier, there are physiological needs, which include; breathing, food, water, warmth, clothing and sex. On the second tier, there are safety needs, such as; money, housing and transportation. On the third tier, there are social needs, such as; family, friends, sexual intimacy and a sense of community belonging.

    On the fourth tier, there are needs of esteem, such as graduating from college, releasing an album, publishing a book, or getting married. Then there is the fifth tier on the hierarchy, a need for self-actualization.

    Maslow may have structured his hierarchy with the best intentions in mind, however, there are some inconsistencies relating to the order of achievement. For example, except for breathing, one typically doesn’t expect for physiological fulfillment to be freely given unless one is a child, or disabled.

    Even with adult disabilities, one would have to be lucky enough to live in a country with a good welfare program, or else be left for dead. However, that is the exception. For the most part, you need a job in order to buy food. But in order to gain employment and maintain it, one needs to be liked and accepted by the group, or else they will either be used and discarded, or flat out rejected right off the bat.

    Social acceptance comes from level three on the hierarchy, so therefore, based on that reason alone, it seems as though one should gain social acceptance first in order to survive.

    Social acceptance is usually rooted in childhood connections that would have otherwise lasted a lifetime. But what if you constantly relocated throughout your childhood? Or what if you are just socially awkward? What if you are just an introvert?

    Centuries ago, or in fact, even as recent as the 1980s, you would be left for dead without social support. Conformity is primordially ingrained deep within our collective subconscious, that is why all normies would rather conform to society than embrace their true nature.

    Luckily today, with the advent of the internet, you can literally create something that adds value to the lives of others, and pay someone who is naturally more socially outgoing to market it for you. If you find that you are naturally an introvert, I recommend becoming an author and enjoying the benefits of faceless fame, the best of both worlds.

    However, creating something that adds esteem is found at level four of the hierarchy. One may choose to approach the hierarchy based on one’s own tastes and interests.

    For example, an extravert seeking employment may prioritize social conformity, even to the detriment of morality, while an introvert may choose to prioritize esteem. Another cause for concern is being able to secure food with no safe place to leave it, or no transport to even procure it.

    So here is my revised version of Maslow’s hierarchy as it relates to modern life. Particularly as it relates to eccentric introverts, because my blog is not for normies.

    First of all, make safety a priority. Once you are safe, do some soul searching with the intent of discovering your niche. This requires long, lonely periods of isolation from the world. My advice to set you up on the right path for rediscovering your niche is to remember what you loved to do when you were 18.

    It also helps if you keep in mind that you will naturally be good at whatever it is that you enjoy doing. That niche will provide esteem while also providing for all of your physiological and safety needs.

    Once you have rediscovered your niche and you are dedicated to your purpose, you will find that the right social support naturally forms around you. Others with whom you share a common interest will naturally gravitate towards you as they too become inspired.

    So once again to recap, safety first, then esteem, then physical needs, then social support. Self-actualization can only be achieved by becoming exceptionally good at performing your niche, the very best. And that can only be achieved through many decades of consistently showing up and honing your craft.

  • Future of the Labor Force

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Nov 24, 2024

    Employment is an essential resource that provides self-sufficiency and sustainability for individuals and families. People rely on jobs to keep the lights on and the refrigerator full.

    They commute anywhere from 10 to 30 miles a day to punch their time into a time clock, and shuffle paper behind a desk for eight hours a day, just to maintain a sense of independence as a responsible adult.

    The majority of the population within any given country have survived off working a 9 to5 job for over a century. But now, there seems to be a paradigm shift that definitely threatens the labor force as we know it.

    The 9 to 5 grind, otherwise called employment, otherwise called indentured servitude, became more organized towards the turn of the 20th century. The 19th century would see the drafting of the 13th amendment under the presidency of Abraham Lincoln, that would abolish slavery for African Americans, and replace it with indentured servitude.

    Under this system, immigrants, former slaves, poor whites and children alike were each paid a stipend to perform grueling physical labor. Only convicted felons were legally enslaved on American soil post abolition, a practice that continues through until this very day. Indentured servants worked anywhere from sixteen to twenty hours a day, under inhumane conditions.

    This was really early in the game, and there were no laws at the time to protect employee rights and wages, so indentured servants were paid unfair and unlivable stipends. Many of them died due to overwork, dehydration and heat exhaustion.

    Then came the 20th century, and with it came a paradigm shift from an agricultural economy to an industrial one. In this new economy, the forty hour work week was introduced, and so were minimum wage laws.

    Child labor was outlawed, and it became mandatory for parents to send their children to school. Otherwise, they would be jailed for child neglect. Public schools were established for the children of the working class, paid for by their own property taxes.

    John D. Rockefeller once famously said that he wanted a nation of workers, and not a nation of thinkers. Many have assumed this to mean that the children of the working class were receiving a different kind of education from that of the wealthy.

    While the children of the wealthy are being privately homeschooled by a governess, who is teaching them how to invest and retain their wealth intergenerationally, the children of the working class are being forced into an indoctrination encampment where obedience and servitude is thoroughly ingrained in them, and they are exposed to a lot of bad influences from their peers.

    This ensures that the cycle of poverty continues, and that the current working class will produce a working class for future generations. Only now, another paradigm shift has already begun, one that will forever change the landscape of the workforce as we know it.

    With the advent of AI, tedious, repetitive tasks are delegated to the likes of Google Gemini and Chat GPT. This is especially true in manufacturing, construction and tech fields. All those jobs will be gone by 2040.

    Thirty years from now, the 2020’s will be remembered as the era of the AI revolution, and it couldn’t have happened at a more convenient time. As more and more people are waking up to the ills of “Glorified Slavery,” they are turning to various forms of creativity for self-fulfillment as well as sustenance.

    This would have otherwise reduced the numbers within the workforce drastically, except those numbers might have been cut regardless, as employees are made redundant in favor of AI.

    As least now, former employees should have something to fall back on when the AI revolution runs its natural course. The path ahead will be a coarse one. This is due to the fact that although I believe everyone was born with natural talents, not everyone will get the memo in a timely manner.

    Not only that, but there will be a lot of untapped potential that would take some soul searching, and that could take time. In the meantime, there will still be oligarchal expectations of societal consumerism, and if sales numbers should dwindle more than expected, there will be a push for people to work online so they can regain some income to spend.

    It will be up to each individual to figure it out for his/herself, and decide if working online is something they want to do in the long term. Apart from that, most postmodern jobs will be in tech, whether as software programmers, or hardware engineers, but that’s only about five percent of the population.

    If you are neither working online, nor indulging your own creative pursuits, you will likely fall through the cracks of society, and become a bum on the street. You will be lucky if you can find a commune who is willing to take you in.

    That future status quo is not something far-fetched that might not happen for another hundred years, it’s right around the corner, and could possibly happen as soon as the end of the decade.

    This is my final WordPress article for 2024. I will be going off on a two month hiatus, and will return at the beginning of February with all new articles and short stories for your reading pleasure.

    In the meantime, my debut title, “The Buckinchere Collection (of short stories)” is now available for purchase in both Hardback and ebook. The Buckinchere Collection is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or wherever you purchase books.

  • Eccentricities of a left-hander

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Nov 3, 2024

    “The function of being left-handed is an eccentricity in and of itself.” – B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    It is commonly known that throughout all of human history, most people write with their right hands. While there are some who are ambidextrous, being able to use both hands. This is what is considered “the norm.” However, very few people are entirely left-handed, and these are the ones who are considered weird.

    If you are left-handed in 2024, thank your lucky stars that you were born at a later time. Because, for much of human history, left-handed people were brutally ostracized by society. They were accused of being witches and devils. Some were even burned at the stake.

    Some school teachers would even go as far as to corporally punish left-handed children by beating them in their left-hand with a ruler, until they learned to write with their right hand. This practice went on until as late as the 1990’s in some countries.

    The idea being that they would be unable to write with their left hand if doing so hurts from receiving a beating in it. This is all due to the fact that a lot of people have average minds, and their fear of the unknown doesn’t help matters much.

    Instead of admitting that they simply don’t know the cause of something, they try to explain it away with their limited understanding of the world around them, and their egos would not permit them to do otherwise. This is very dangerous thinking, especially when there are children who are dependent on you for safety and sustenance. 

    But now, we’ve got it made. Never has there been a time such as this to be alive as a left-hander. With thorough research throughout the decades, and the public being better informed, almost all of the scrutiny we face today has been switched from physical harassment to verbal criticism.

    Any comment about a left-handed person being a devil has since been reduced to a mere joke. A mean joke, but a joke nonetheless. We have come a long way, but we are still not there yet.

    A lot of left-handed people suffer from low self-esteem, depression and suicidal ideation due to this misunderstood quirk of theirs. Just because the ostracism we face has switched from physical to verbal harassment doesn’t mean that it’s any less painful to bear, just not life-threatening, that’s all.

    If you are ambidextrous, then do whatever suits you. But if your left hand is all you’ve got to work with, then it doesn’t help to go against the grain of your nature, as you will only end up driving yourself mad.

    The thing to do is to embrace who you are, then try to understand yourself better. For starters, let’s discuss what causes left-handedness in the first place. Studies have proven that left-handers are born that way due to genetic luck, coupled with brain chemistry.

    If the brain chemical leans to the right, one would become left-handed, whereas if the brain chemical leans to the left, then one would become right handed. This is something that happens as the unborn embryo is developing inside its mother’s uterus. Therefore, he has no control over it.

    There are even Ultrasounds of the embryo unwittingly sucking its left thumb over its right one, or vice versa. Further observations of involuntary hand preference have been noted postnatally, during infanthood.

    I also think it’s worth noting that being left-handed comes with intellectual and even emotional quirks, and not just physical. Left-handers are more likely to be creators and innovators.

    Think about some of the greatest minds of our time, and throughout history. Innovators such as; Einstein, Tesla, Newton, Gates, Winfrey, etc. All of them have that one eccentricity in common that gets them in the door to the club of exclusive winners.

    Left-handed individuals are more likely to pursue careers in creative fields, such as music, writing, painting, sculpting, inventions, etc. Which is befitting our personalities, considering that the function of being left-handed is an eccentricity in and of itself.

    This is due to the fact that our brain chemistry leans more towards our right brain, which is the creative brain. Apart from that, some left-handers tend to enter politics. Notable left-handed presidents include; Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Obama. All of whom have served at some point or other within the last forty years.

    Today, some left-handers have taken the liberty of celebrating their left-handedness as a quirk, or an eccentricity, rather than a mark of the devil, and I am one of them. I am B. Lorenzo Buckinchere, a left-handed journalist and author, and I approve this message.

  • The INFJ/ESTJ Dichotomy

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Oct 27, 2024

    Character is everything. Learning one’s true character helps determine whether or not someone you’ve just met is compatible with you, and more importantly, how. It is pivotally essential to get to know someone’s nature, so as to avoid misunderstandings further down the road.

    The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator consists of sixteen personality types, each of which is determined by comparing one preference to another across eight character qualities, pertaining to life choices, and how one typically makes them.

    In this article, I will be comparing the two MBTI personalities who couldn’t be more opposite to each other.

    The INFJ is the rarest, and most empathic of the MBTI. They are energized from being in solitude most of the time, as that is where they get their ideas. It is during times of solitude, that the INFJ receives inspiration from his own internal thoughts and imaginations, without the inconvenience of social distractions.

    Once solitude is achieved, his intuition naturally kicks in, as that is when his creative juices start flowing. In fact, the precise order in which it usually works is that he taps into his feelings more during solitude, and it puts him back in his right brain that causes an intuitive creative flow.

    Once he knows what to do, there is nothing to think about. He makes a snap judgment, often as soon as the following day. Judging is the only analytical trait of the INFJ, but the way in which he does it is a no brainer.

    Then we have the ESTJ, the most logical and analytical of the MBTI personalities. Unlike the INFJ who has one analytical trait that adds some balance, the ESTJ has no emotional trait. The ESTJ is good for drafting military strategies, and making business decisions, but that is just about all he is good for.

    The trouble with ESTJ types is that they think they can bring that rigidity with them into their interpersonal relationships, and it never ends well for them. INFJ types have a lot of eccentricities about them that the ESTJ will impatiently judge as simply being weird.

    In fact, judging is the only MBTI trait they both share, and it happens to be an analytical one at that. The INFJ will judge the ESTJ in his mind, but ultimately won’t care what he does due to his nonchalant nature, unless it affects him directly.

    So now, imagine a scenario where the ESTJ is annoyed by some of the INFJ’s eccentricities. Because he is stuck in his left brain, he cannot simply leave well enough alone. He has to somehow try to control what he does not understand, and if he finds that he is unable to control it, he must find a way to destroy it.

    The ESTJ is also an extravert, so it doesn’t help that he heavily relies on external validation. It is impossible for the INFJ and the ESTJ to simply sit still in a room, and enjoy each other’s company in silence. The ESTJ will feel awkward about it, and eventually find a way to make some noise, just so the room can feel normal to him, hence why they call them normies.

    This could take place in any setting. But for the sake of argument, let’s just assume that the INFJ is in a relationship with the ESTJ. The ESTJ will meet the INFJ for the first time, thinking she knows everything about him, based solely on what she sees, versus using her feelings to actually get to know the INFJ and appreciate where he is coming from. Decides for whatever reason that she doesn’t like him, then decides either to control or destroy him, based on her limited judgment of him.

    And because she is an extravert, she cannot simply break up with him and walk away like the INFJ and INTJ are easily capable of doing, she has to fix it somehow. This is dangerous and reckless behavior on the part of the ESTJ. Hence why the ESTJ is a narcissist, and the mortal enemy of all introverted, intuitive types, especially the INFJ.

    Imagine being the woman in the relationship, yet your boyfriend is more intuned with his right brain than you are. Her linear thinking, coupled with the irrationality that is an inherent trait of her gender would only further add to her solipsism.

    Opposites may attract initially, but they do not sustain in the long run. ESTJ types should stick to their own kind, or at least other extraverts. The INFJ should definitely stick to other introverts, most notably the INTJ.

    You can’t help who you meet at work, but you do have control over who you allow into your personal life. This is something to put into practice for your interpersonal relationships.

  • The Power of music on the brain

    Ready.

    B. Lorenzo Buckinchere

    Oct 20, 2024

    Have you ever been in a generally happy mood on any given day, then suddenly find yourself feeling sad when a love song comes over the radio that reminds you of someone special? Likewise, do you find that you are rudely interrupted whenever an ad cuts into your music flow, or whenever you abruptly change the genre from something as relaxing as classical music to something as loud as rock and roll?

    Well that is having to do with your brain, and how it processes music. You see, there are two sides of your brain, and each side processes things differently. In this article, I will be covering the power that music has over people and their emotions, and in order to get the full picture, I am taking it back to the beginning.

    July 1518, Strasbourg, France. It was an ordinary medieval day under Roman rule, when a woman named Frau Troffea suddenly ventured out into the town square, and started dancing at random. Before long, other townsfolk decided to join in on the fun.

    It wasn’t until after they realized that they were unable to stop themselves from dancing that they realized that what they thought would be fun was actually a living nightmare.

    Hundreds of Strasbourgers danced until their feet were sore and bloody, but it didn’t stop there. Many of them danced themselves to death, suffering from hunger, thirst and exhaustion in the process.

    This event came to be known as the dancing plague, a frenzy of inexplicable dancing mania that lasted day and night from July until September. No one seemed to know what really caused it. Particularly because everyone was dancing, but where’s the music?

    This only further fueled the mystery shrouding the situation that led to numerous theories throughout the centuries, ranging from demonic possession, to the use of a psychedelic wheat fungus known as Ergotamine, similar to LSD.

    The dancing mania of 1518 may be the most infamous account of a dancing frenzy taking place throughout history, but not the first. A few centuries before that in 1284, there was the tale of the pied piper of Hamelin, a mysterious nomad who was offered money by Hamelin’s mayor to help remedy a rat infestation.

    His solution was to play some kind of magical silent flute that only the rats could hear to help lure them out of Hamelin. After he had gotten rid of all the rats, the mayor refused to pay him for his services, citing a number of excuses.

    So out of revenge, the pied piper returned to Hamelin one year later on a Sunday morning while all of the adults were in church, and used his silent flute to lure their children away, never to be seen again.

    The common theme of both stories is the hypnotic power of music on the human brain. A more recent example is a season three episode of The Twilight Zone, titled, “A Piano in the House.”

    In this episode, a theater critic named Fitzgerald Fortune purchased a self-playing piano for his young wife on her birthday. The titular piano in question had the supernatural ability to bring out a person’s true character by putting them in a trance, depending on what tune it was playing at the time.

    All of these examples may seem like fictional accounts of the power of music, but it alludes to the fact that we don’t fully understand the human brain, we barely scratched the surface. The brain is just as strong as it is vulnerable, and what makes us can also break us.

    The dancing fever of Strasbourg suggests that the residents of that town were dancing to music that only they could hear. Likewise, the pied piper of Hamelin played a tune that only the children could hear, kind of like a dog whistle.

    Perhaps the pied piper is immortal, and resurfaced in Strasbourg centuries later, assuming a different form. Perhaps he cursed the unsuspecting town of Strasbourg, same as he did Hamelin, using advanced knowledge of subliminal messaging that medieval surfs could not even begin to fathom, then mentally raped them with it.

    Fast-forward to the present, and the youth of today are delinquent and disrespectful, all due to that ghetto rap music. Traditional African-American culture was a prideful thing, especially in the south. Ladies were classy, the gents were well dressed, and the music was respectful and evident of creative ingenuity.

    But then, something tragic happened. Their culture was infiltrated, and they were sold a lie. The new order of the day is to be a “gangsta” and a “hustla,” and to envy one’s own brother for even his very potential to be prosperous.

    Something similar happened in Jamaica during the 1980’s when reggae evolved into dancehall, following the untimely death of Bob Marley. Reggae was the conscious vibrations of the nation, but dancehall is the rebellious wild child, and all about the hype.

    But here is what I am really alluding to. Did you know that dancehall is recorded on a 440 hz frequency, while reggae uses a 432 hz frequency? It is not just reggae versus dancehall, but all popular music is recorded on a 440 hz frequency, while traditional music, such as jazz and classical music are 432 hertz.

    Each frequency has a different effect on the listener. Particularly because 440 hertz puts you into your left brain, which is useful for analytical thinking and reasoning, while 432 hertz puts you into your right brain, which is good for love and creativity.

    The left brain may be good for critical thinking, but that’s all it is good for. The problem is when you stay stuck in your left brain, and allow that linear kind of thinking to cross over into your interpersonal relationships.

    But if all you listen to is 440 hertz music, then it makes you more susceptible to suggestion without you even realizing it. And what if there really was an agenda to program the masses to be more narrow-minded, therefore easier to control?

    So if there is a shift in the consciousness of post-modern society, it is most likely attributed to the fact that all mainstream tracks are being recorded on a 440 hz frequency. And though there are other factors to be considered outside of music, music is the main factor.

    The good news is that indie artists tend to record their work on a 432 hz frequency, so there is an alternative that you can choose to listen to. Music is more than just entertainment, it is medicine for the soul, and definitely the mind. Under the right circumstances, it can also be weaponized against you, it is not to be trifled with.
