In this podcast, Chris Russell, reads another of his essays. This one in only two takes. It is a different than usual take on what makes a good relationship. Also, note that because it is both read and edited at the same time, I encourage you to look past the errors and rereads and unusual additions in the reading found in spontaneous additions as commentary to what is being read. This is a fun, and unique podcast that will teach you about what really does make a good relationship. 

To read original written essay go here Medium, What Makes a Good Relationship

This is one of my academic essays. Here I take the tone of a research psychologist, and explore in depth what makes a good relationship. I identify the variables, and then create some research ideas, with theory and hypothesis. I conclude by noting the difference between the scientific method and other forms of knowledge acquisition. Here I suggest that the best way to conclude this essay is using intuition, and I offer my intuitive thoughts on what makes a good relationship, based upon personal data (my experiences), variables, and thought the experiments I suggested. 

This is an audio presentation of a book written by Chris Russell about his struggles with being alone. In it Chris explores his history of loss, rejection, failure and broken connections. Then there is a brief discussion about the difference between being alone, and feeling lonely.  Followed by another look at a potential anarchist community, and an admonition to be all you can be by being love, and letting go of fear.

In these sections of the digital book, Notes From a Madman, we have a look at how to implement the anarchist community. Next a brief, concise exploration of anarchy in practice is explored. Finally, through a short dialogue on money we go into another presentation of a working anarchist community.

First we discuss the connection between money and happiness. Using a thought experiment, we look at how happiness and money are connected. Then the need for sex, celibacy and the pursuit of unity is discussed, and healthy and unhealthy aspects of sexual abstinence is explored. Finally, the first full description of an alternative, autonomous, anarchist community is presented in some detail.

In these sections I discuss the evolution of language and how texting technology is changing our use of language. Also love is expressed again, then the psychic realm is explained. The psyche is acknowledged and then a deeper understanding of this real and accessible realm is discussed.
