Some folks polish before they publish. I prefer to build with the lights on and the floor still covered in sawdust. You’ll see pages vanish, headlines mutate, and features arrive half-baked before they’re ripped out again. You might even spot the fresh imprint of my jeans in the paint. That’s not neglect… it’s proof the work is alive.

Why? Because Stoicism isn’t a framed quote on a wall. It’s forged in use, shaped by every success, failure, and course-correction. The Stoic Order is the same—built in public, lived while it’s made.

On paper, it’s a non-theistic religious and philosophical community rooted in Stoicism, modern psychology, and practical wisdom you can actually use. In reality… it’s my workshop.

Mind the scaffolding.
