Hi, I'm Orion.
You can call me Onion.

This is my little corner of the internet. I write and make videos about topics I find interesting: technology, the way we live with it, skating, and whatever else is on my mind. Just putting things out into the world.

10What Intelligence Reaches ForWe solved survival. Then we kept going.09The Unnamed ThingYou end up fighting a description of something that no longer exists while the actual thing moves freely without a name.08Same Play, Different CostumeThe structure has always been the same. A small group controls what everyone else depends on. Each era gets a different name for it. None of the names change what it actually is.07Third PlacesNot home, not work. Just somewhere to be.06Signal LossvideoTook a trip to Lake Havasu with a friend. Skating and paddleboarding.05Nowhere else to beI have been skating since I was a kid. That is a long time to do something and still be average at it. Most days that is fine with me.04The dark side of instant communicationInstant messaging was supposed to make us more connected. In some ways it has. But it's also created a false sense of urgency that quietly drains us.03LonelinessI don't really remember when it hit me. It wasn't loud at first more like background noise that became louder over time.02Digital minimalismUsing technology only when it adds value to your life sounds simple. Actually doing it is a slow, ongoing process and that's okay.01Why I created this blogA more personal space to write my thoughts and put them out into the universe away from algorithms, character limits, and platforms that treat you as the product.
