CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Good-day, My name is James, I have 19 years, and reside in the Paris of the North, Minneapolis, Minnesota. I'm a musician and a bicyclist and a baker of bread. I've got almost no income, but am living a free and happy life, somehow making rent most months, and smoking more cigarettes than are good for me. I am usually quiet and pensive and ghost-like, I travel in large exaggerated movements, I sing songs and play my guitar, and dance while talking or playing chess. I keep good company with my good friends and I like talking about the real world and how to make it better, or playing out nonsense to logical ends. I love art and seeing what you make.

I want to live collectively, I want to do what ever I want to do, so far it's working out.

Start Getting What You Need, Start Making What You Want, Start Sharing What You Have, Please.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The sunset was deep red over lake pepin, It was the first time I had seen it outside of a car, I had biked maybe one hundred miles that day before that point, from minneapolis, blues purples and reds washed around in the water, then stayed much more still in the sky, tiny beams of red light stuck through clouds and illuminated individual trees, I glided past it for what seemed the entire time one could honestly call sunset, then turned out of lake city, into the night

Teach, Learn, Share

heat up the pan, butter the bread (both sides), put the bread in the pan, cook, cut a hole in the bread, crack an egg in the hole, cook, flip it all over, garlic and pepper, take it out of the pan, and eat it all up
