About
The name 1001 Histories is inspired by One Thousand and One Nights. When I started this project in 2017, I hoped to tell gripping tales that would leave people hungering for more and had fantasies that I might yet figure out how to support myself with my writing by providing infotainment or edutainment.
In November 2024, I redacted the two whole posts I published in 2017, one of which was updated and published elsewhere some time ago and more recently reposted here when that project was taken off line (and then it very recently finally gelled and is back online). I started fresh because at that time our president elect, Donald Trump, had made noises that he wanted to be dictator for life and end this little American experiment called democracy and he was good buddies with someone who was a huge supporter of his whom I understand to be a white supremacist, Elon Musk.
I had recently written two different pieces that fascists and white supremacists would no doubt be happy to twist into being pro fascism and pro white supremacy if they knew I existed at all which no one appears to know. I'm absolutely not either of those things and I hoped to begin writing about my understanding of history, which sometimes falls outside the Overton Window, as my only defense against the dark arts of slander and slippery political slopes.
I do, in fact, have credentials for writing up my best understanding of history though it sometimes doesn't agree with standard narratives. In addition to generally being well read, I was briefly an award winning History major and I have an Associate of Arts in Humanities. Plus, I grew up in a bilingual, multicultural household with older parents who told stories about what they remembered from living through the events in question that differed from the crap we were hearing from official sources.
I've more recently begun using this blog for writing Alternate History pieces. It's not exactly straight up fiction and certainly not well researched, strongly documented new theories of how things went down. It's something like a thought experiment because some things in this world are crazy and official histories and official positions make no sense.
Christianity is a religion born of divination and astrology both of which the church has now banned as "the work of the devil." It's sad and problematic that such a powerful institution has so completely forgotten its own history and is now such a bastion of ignorance that they are oblivious to the truth about themselves while openly celebrating that very origin story in popular songs.
It is better to light one candle than to curse the dark, so I write in hopes of casting light, in hopes that perhaps it might grow to a great bonfire while knowing it's more likely to go sideways and become an inferno we all regret or be extinguished entirely and never heard about.
Given how I have been driven off all social media platforms, have no traffic to speak of and no one seems to promote my writing at all, I seem to be on track to never be heard of. But ***I*** feel better about the state of things than I did in November 2024 even though I cannot possibly show any cause and effect connection between my writing and objective metrics suggesting the state of the world has, in fact, improved, so I continue writing.
Objectively: Trump is still in office in spite of OPENLY admitting the election was rigged and he was never legitimately elected, which I find mind boggling and a damning statement about The Third World Country of Merika.
On the upside, at least he and his Nazi saluting buddy are no longer cozy, which perhaps is objective evidence things suck less but not objective evidence I've made any difference whatsoever.
I apparently still have lucky panties syndrome, which seems to be a harmless form of insanity, and blogging amounts to free therapy because it certainly isn't paying my bills, so if it's not free therapy, it's apparently a complete waste of my time. I desperately would like to move on to spending my time on more lucrative activities instead.
