Each page below is a hub for one clinical lens from my forthcoming book, Proof of Work: From Fiat Life to Thriving in the AI Age, with the news-pegged essays applying that lens to current events as they publish.
The book is at /sovereign-ground/. The Substack waitlist is the email list for chapters as they are written.
The fiat financial system functions as a bad attachment figure: unpredictable, demanding loyalty while extracting value, externalizing its instability into the bodies of everyone living inside it.
Algorithmic recommendation systems are the cold mother — present 24/7, infinitely patient with surface engagement, completely indifferent to your actual nervous-system needs.
New lenses are added as the book’s themes deepen. Each cluster page auto-updates with the latest news-pegged essays applying that lens.
