Are You Actually Living, or Just Playing the Game?

Let’s be honest: most of what we deal with daily is just noise. The endless rules, the meaningless procedures, the polite but empty conversations—it’s all designed to keep us occupied, keep us complacent, and most importantly, keep us from actually questioning things.

You ever sit through a training, a meeting, a briefing, and think: "Why don’t they just say what they mean?" Instead, they dance around the truth, sugarcoat everything, and act like the rules they made up are somehow for your benefit.

That’s because clarity—real, unfiltered clarity—is dangerous. If people started seeing things for what they are, started saying what they actually mean, and—God forbid—started acting on it, well… that would be a problem for a lot of folks in power, wouldn’t it?

You wake up. You start questioning. You start building. You start pushing back. Because the people making the rules? They don’t hesitate. They have their meetings, their strategies, their backup plans.

But you? What’s your plan?

Are you just going along with the script, nodding when you’re supposed to, staying quiet when you know something’s off? Or are you sharpening your own blade—whatever that means to you?

Creatively. Personally. As a community.

This week’s episode of FWACATA Podcast isn’t just a rant (though, let’s be honest, it gets a little fiery). It’s a wake-up call. A reminder that you can either sit on the sidelines or start making things happen.

So ask yourself: What are you actually doing? And if the answer is nothing, maybe it’s time to change that.
