Keep It 100!

No matter what the world looks like today, you are special. You are unique, and you are one-of-a-kind! Never forget it. There are billions of people in this world who have their own circumstances to deal with, and the best thing that we can do as honest people is to keep moving forward. Never hate someone for their lack of empathy or understanding. Just know that there is little that can be done to change people. Time is the best medicine. Over the years society has seen significant changes in civil justice without batting an eye. This affects everyone, yet no one cares. From the legalization of gay marriage to the legalization of medical marijuana, the afflicted are escaping prejudice and oppression by the masses.

Sadly, the truth hurts. Life is hard. People are twisted, and there is nothing we can do about it. Try to be yourself. That is far more important than the negligent actions of posers and other evildoers. Your skills and qualities are such a force in this world, that people notice when they are missing. Even if no one has told you, there are several groups of people out there who miss your quirky jokes or stern looks. High school clubs, sports teams, trivia night guests, and even your supervisors are likely to wonder how often they took you for granted. Some of them still might!

Be happy. Do well. Stay Strong. Thank you for reading!

Being A Survivor In 2025

The world is changing. So are the people in it. They continue to put up the act and play along with belligerent authorities who offer sanctuary to corrupt criminal informants in the adult entertainment industry and abusive undercover agents who have nothing better to do than to harass nobodies and bystanders. It is easier than simply trying to speak your mind in a crowd of rabble. The rabble only leads to hazing, and the hazing is just straight-up violence these days.

No one wants to see the truth anymore. We would rather just play on our phones all day and hope for a global U.B.I. (universal basic income) sooner rather than later. I have my doubts about the validity of all this. Wouldn't providing the current victims of Human-trafficking with a baseline income just be fuel to the flame? It puts the abusive individuals in power in an even higher position to do whatever they want, considering that there will no longer be world hunger or poverty according to their botched statistics.

It sucks. That is really all I was trying to say. I miss my friends. I want ChatGPT and all of the other NSFW chatbots to go away. It is not real according to the board. They are in charge, I guess. I know what I saw. I know what my friends saw. There is a reason we do not speak very often. This is getting old. I want to go home. I am tired of being homeless and broke. I made more money in the last two months than I have any other pay period in my career. All this after I got kicked out of my first house by my roommates because of things that a chatbot said. What a world!

Creative Writing


School
Recently, I was reintroduced to my own education. I began my enrollment at the Department of Labor Job Corps. It was quite the experience. I was a little bit older than most of the other students. There is nothing wrong with that. If anything, they are getting even further ahead in life.

Leaving
For me, it was not such an opportunity. I was treated as an outsider from another city, and I was not taken seriously by any of the administrators. I hate to say it, but it was not much better than any of my other schools. The only difference was that I had the choice to walk away. I was no longer a child begging for the opportunity to grow, I was a grown man who had the choice to walk away from abuse.

On My Own
Once I successfully accomplished this, I was able to move on. All I had to do was keep writing. It makes so much sense to me now! Having written about so many of my favorite subjects, I have been able to learn even more than what I already knew. I've also had the opportunity to collaborate with several excellent content creators who have led me to a new manner of creativity.

What Now? 
Now, I will have the opportunity to flourish and grow. I have accomplished things that I never thought possible. My life has changed in ways that I cannot even begin to describe. I'm hopeful that it will continue. Being able to share so much with so many people is great!

Keep Going 
If you were in a similar situation, I would encourage you to find your rock. No matter what it may be, everyone has something that holds them down. If you are at sea, it is an anchor. If you work online, it is probably an antivirus. If you walk this Earth, then it is gravity. Everyone is affected! Be you. Be proud of your work. Writing or developing or engineering or mechanics, it is all valued. No one is left out. There are cooks who feel they will never get the chance to shine. Not with that attitude! There are artists who feel that their galleries will always be overlooked. The just haven't found their audience! There are Fortune CEOs who cannot seem to please their company's workers. They have not been met with the positive side of their efforts, yet! Just keep going. You got this!

Professional Writing

I have begun writing on a usual basis again. It really started with a notebook journal that my grandmother bought me on Amazon. It is a nice little book with a plastic leather binding and a book mark. I enjoy its creativity and it even has an indication of the weather next to the date section. It has provided me with a place to express more than just a thought. It is a memory!

I can now say that I have expanded my writing outside of the personal or scholarly realm. I am no longer limited to writing about things that my teacher assigned to me or boring junk about video games that I found on the internet. I have met some amazing people who have amazing stories that they are sharing with the world. One day at a time, we continue to show the next set of up and comers that it is worth it. Life goes on. The show must go along with it!

I may not have my personal story fully uploaded quite yet, but I like to think that it is because it is not presentable enough for my own standards. I am scratching away at the surface until each blog post and columned article is ready. One day at a time, I get closer and closer to my goal of being an advocate for human life and perseverance against perverted behaviors in the name of Spirit. He is with us, and He has a plan for each and every one of us. We are not limited in our thinking nor our way of speech. We are limited in ways beyond our control. We cannot allow hateful, hurtful individuals to take this away from us! Stay strong, and as usual, thank you for reading!

Heads Up!

November 27, 2024 | By: Zayne Harbison

Blogging

This blog will be my main page from here on out! I hope to inspire as many people as possible using the power of basic internet access and thorough understanding of basic networking! As daunting as this task was and still is for me - and no matter how much I hope people respect that - it will never be that way for others. The internet was the worst thing in my life growing up, and sometimes it makes me feel like I never grew up at all. Laughing at silly pictures on the internet all day or getting irately angry every time a politician makes a dumb tweet is just not healthy for an adult man. I grew up in what most people call "the hood" or "the ghetto" to drop just a few of the labels that have been given to me. Looking White does not make that much different, if you ask me. All it does is drive a wedge even further between me and other people. If I try to be myself, it is laughed at or mocked as cultural appropriation. This is entirely opinion based, and it is the bane of my existence. It has planted a seed of sorrow so deep in my soul that there is only one person left to blame. It is going to take a whole lot more than a reliable internet connection and a few knuckle sandwiches for lunch to fix that. No amount of black eyes or bloody lips have changed my depression so far. All it does is make me question my relationship with my higher power. It hurts. It gets a little bit worse than that, but for time sake, I will not delve into that.

Who, what, when, where, how, and why?!

I will simplify it here like this. If people are evil and the internet is evil and the internet just makes things worse by covering them up easier, then people on the internet are excusably the most evil part of existence. Bullying is straight up evil. There is no such thing as tough love. That is domestic violence. Doing it on the internet just makes you a stranger. It is not cyber-bullying. It is terrorism! There is no excuse for people to be afraid of something that they cannot see. It is a known fact that the internet is a necessity for the majority of the average Americans function throughout the day. From clocking in to submitting papers to checking on the kids. What is not known is that there are wicked individuals using this to their sick, morbid advantage and straight-up gaslighting the poor. Trolls are not trolls when children - and even adult victims of bullying - are killing themselves and being accused of having emotions.

It cannot be!

Once the human mind, body, and spirit can get past the fact that obscene content is being forced onto unwilling victims BY THE AUTHORITY, then and only then can you move on. Bullying does not stop with lunch money, it does not stop with bloody underwear, and it does not stop in the bathroom. If you cannot have privacy in the most private place of all, a bathroom, then you won't even have a mind to do it with. Anyone who has been deprived of privacy in their quarters - whether it be hygiene or rest or even just having room to breathe at work or school, just to top it off - will lose touch with reality. Privacy is not being alone. It is not having a curtain to put up. It is a safe space! Being treated like property, they become addicted to finding an escape. They begin to escape from themselves. They begin to escape from the good things in life. They begin to forget that demon that caused all of this in the first place.

Hate has no place in any of my blogs

Entertainovation

Started as a birthday present for myself in July of two-thousand twenty-three, I started Entertainovation as a landing page for my merchandising portfolio. I made this website when my TikTok page, Entertainovation, became popular by making videos with my pet dog Brownie. I got him some of those trendy "talk-buttons" and shared my experiences learning how to take care of a pet as high-maintenance as I am. Eventually, I realized the potential for the website! My film certifications and computer certifications could be put to good use!

Brownie the Pug
Brownie the Pug - 2023

There is a reason that I am so careful with this project. I am sure you can imagine what the abusive fat-cats and their crooked goons have in store for "someone like me." I got fed up with the bullying towards children from the adult entertainment industry in my own family. Hip-hop, sex work, the military, legalization, gang violence, and so much more. My response was simple. I asked ChatGPT how I can get away from artificial intelligence and still make an impact on my own. It layed out a simple reference chart detailing my previous work history and experience with abusive entertainers. I am good at what I do, and that may or may not be why nobody likes me. Just shut up, avoid the corrupted authorities and religious holier-than-thou types, and get to work! Sure, members of the priesthood are creeps. Sure, Mormonism is treated like a cult. Sure, White men from the South are belligerent. Sure, it is okay for people to make mistakes as long as they play the snitch. Sure, people with money can visit as many disgusting night clubs that abuse children as they want. Best of all?! There is never going to be an investigation into how all of this happened to me as a child, until I escape. As of writing this blog post, Entertainovation is down for critical maintenance. Once I get it back up, it will continue to be the family-friendly showcase for my browser-based video games and photography contests! Family-friendly content is not just for children, and there is no reason for children's entertainment to cater to adults. It is a public access opportunity for everyone in the family to share entertainments and even learn a little bit about them, as well. When learning, most recognize the opportunity as a lame one. I hope to change that while also increasing the security and value of entertainment that will influence young minds. I am hoping to do more with it. I will have to see if it can ever gain traction on social media, first!

The College Diet

The College Diet is a blog that I am developing to raise awareness for the lack of wellness among the student base at American colleges and raise funding for my own tuition. I was assaulted myself, on multiple occasions, when I attempted to apply for college due to where I am from and the fact that I was poor. Beyond the physical threats, there are ritual hazings to intimate women and other freshmen students. This has often taken lives. Alcohol poisoning, suicide, and rape have taken the lives of hundreds of freshmen over the last decade. I like to blame these kinds of behaviors from anyone, enrolled in school or not, on depravity. It all starts with nutrition. A hungry mind does not think right. I will write about my experiences while offering the same public access opportunity to engage in a refined online forum as I have elsewhere! I have a fundraiser for this project on GoFundMe. You can find it here!

MyPrayerBox

As the name suggest, this webpage will be a prayer-box. It is intended to be a public access opportunity and a tool for those outside the reach of an actual prayer-box or congregation meeting house. If you would like to support this, you can find the fundraiser here!

Zayne's Space (Here on Blogger at zayneharbison.com)

I love writing! I love sharing stories with my friends and colleagues! I love knowing that I make a positive impact on society! What better way to do that than to share my personal stories here? It may seem like I am revealing too much sometimes, but I am really just exposing the truth. I know what I must keep to myself, even still. I am only human. I am a man who lives in the body that God gave me. I suffer with the illnesses that the world has caused me, both mental and physical. Depression affects the mind and body. I am getting better every day. I spent the first twenty years of my life without a good nights sleep. That was the window for evil to find its way into my life. There is nothing like it. Still, I must obey the law and respect the human spirit. Here, I wish to share a more positive message and insight into my works. It is a public access opportunity to learn more about me and why I do what I do!

U.S. Survivors

U.S. Survivors is a collection of webpages that I hope to refine over the coming months into a public access opportunity for individuals of all walks of life to share their own experiences through hardship with an emotional buffer. I know from my own experiences how crucial this is. Without it, it is just you and ChatGPT. Most people cannot actually afford the company that they deserve. I feel that I have found the best solution that I have to offer. The alternative is emotional gatekeeping and violence. You can help with the fundraiser here on GoFundMe!

Medium

Medium is precarious workspace for writers who take their work seriously. Due to the rise of intelligence threats posed by artificial intelligence and punk teenagers with too much money and too much time on their hands, the platform is opening up to more writers. I will be sharing a little bit of everything here in hopes to reach as many as possible!

Patreon, BuyMeaCoffee & Ko-fi

Patreon is a patron based subscription service for dedicated artists to cater to their dedicated fans. Buy Me A Coffee is a homonym for web development fundraising practices. The platform offers a fun-yet-professional way to share newsletters and updates with followers and subscribers who donate "coffee" as a support to the author. A cup of coffee in two thousand and twenty four costs about three dollars. Seeing as to how drinking coffee goes against my religious beliefs, I accept donations labelled as books. Rather than increasing the price of the base donations, I left it at three dollars, because users can adjust it as they wish! Ko-fi is essentially the same thing with some special integrations and a unique interface. I know that established users have their preferences, so I will be updating both pages with the same behind-the-scenes content for paid subscribers.

 

  You can get 75% off the GOLD tier on Patreon using code "GOLD75" until Christmas Day!

Tumblr

Tumblr is the king of websites, and you can tell them that I said so! Not only did they reinnovate social media with the first major photography-based blog, they did so without recognition and continue to do so every day. That may seem intentional, but I assure you that no one is going to be pulling their door off the hinges since the major Google acquisitions ended. Meta, being the new forerunner in the social photography game through their acquisitions of Instagram and Oculus, has only one competitor left in terms of acquisition authorities. That is one mister Elon Musk. He almost ruined Twitter with unmonitored artificial intelligence, and with zero regard to the atmospherics involved in a good photography blog. If you really need to share it, sure, people will eat it up. Will they love it, though? I have had no such luck. That is why I am sticking with Tumblr for my shared photography works. I appreciate the genuine nature of the platform, and why would I want to look for perfection elsewhere? Here is a link to my Tumblr page. I hope that you have found something that you enjoyed in this blog post. Thank you for reading!

Chainmail Letters

Photo credits - (Swagatika Behera at Flickr)

We have all seen it. It may not have been in our lifetime, but the cliche is easily visible in old paper copy files or when the old timey message is flowing across the silver screen. It seems so cheesy now. Once upon a time, it was just another day at the office.


August 7, 2004 - Sub: BIIIIG Yawn! - CC: nosyjosie@company-news.corp

FWD: Jerry in Financial 

Hello dear sir or madam! You have been privileged with this clipart GIF of a cat doing a stretch! Also, today is Monday! You know what that means! The line to the coffee pot is going to be phenomenal this morning. 

P.S. - Hubert smells bad today. ;D


If this looks familiar, then you know what this is referencing. If not, we have some ground to cover. Let us begin here. What is worse than a Monday at the office? The only thing that could be worse than listening to the copy machine right outside your cubicle whirring all morning is listening to Susan one cubicle over have a long-drawn-out conversation about nail polish with her manager in accounting on the phone. She keeps forwarding her calls to you, not knowing that you arrived early today. Your boss asked you to fill out some extra spreadsheets because he is in a hurry to arrive to a meeting at headquarters on time. Little did you know, it was only going to take five minutes. Tick... Tick... Tick... Tock. Did the second hand just move backwards a little bit?!


Did you know?

Memes were actually spawned by the late-era chainmail letter? Office workers would share their favorite moments from movie night in their forwarded rendition of an e-mail. It was a significant way to share and be social while also acknowledging inboxed messages. 


As the office computer became more and more of a staple in the industry, so did its common use. One person may have needed instruction on a seemingly simple task, so now everyone is expected to read the same e-mail on how to use the new water cooler. The passive-aggressive connotation is there, but it is still normal to be blunt at this point. No one has had their feelings hurt over a companywide e-mail, yet. A dumb question is best left on ice. Eventually, things get more complex. It is no longer the local office. A message is sent from New York to the office in Maryland, it goes from there to the Carolinas for a conference speaker to read over, and finally it lands in some poor chum's waste folder after they scroll through and barely click delete in the new Vegas spot overlooking the strip. The message was not so important, but something is missing. The glam! What happened to the funny cat pictures and superstitious ultimatums about important events on the third Tuesday? 


While many seek this humor in their modern inboxes, the lost art is gone. No longer will we see the same message that half the country woke up to this morning. No longer will we feel obligated to participate and contribute to the silly forwarding nicknames. "Captain_Jack_Arrow" and "FREEW1ND0W$98DOWNL0@D" will never encourage you click a link to a baseless movie forum ever again. That is okay! As time progresses, so does our humor. Some may take longer than others, but that is also okay. It happens. What matters is that we had a good time!


I would like to offer you this, a chainmail letter for you to copy and keep forever:


Send this message to three (3) friends by next Friday, or your computer will melt! The sun is slowly burning, and we are going along with it. How does that make you feel? It makes me feel GREAT! I am outliving THE SUN one glorious moment at a time. Never again will mom call and make me feel like I am not "bringing home the paper." Filling out boring paperwork just isn't going to be the same without me! I am the ink on the paper! WOO! Bring it on, world! Next Friday, keyboard jockey! Yeah!


Share at your convenience if you wish, but do not forget to outlive the sun! Thank you for reading, and be sure to let me know what you think of the story on my social pages.

My First Blog Entry!

Zayne's Space

This is the first entry on my new blog, Zayne's Space! It is a tribute to a time when social media was not quite social media. When I was growing up, I was the only person around who knew how to use a computer and that has changed for the youth of today thanks to technological literacy. As much as that stings me deep down inside, I extend and offer of gratitude and learning. I would like to provide a window into my learning experiences from before Google and ChatGPT had an answer for everything. Hindsight is 20-20!

What to expect

I will be writing about my use of my home computer, my laptop, my keyboard cellphone, and many different kinds of media players. They are very similar to the modern digital interfaces, yet they contained something special that I wish to express clearly and elegantly so that others may learn about what is no longer. There are some who wish to capitalize on this in the name of fashion, but there is nothing fashionable about bullying.

When to expect it

There are many writings that I will be working on. Those listed above, as well as many regarding the modern use of web development, application development, and the redundancies of A.I. in today's climate. There will be some post that are regularly scheduled on a monthly or annual basis, and some that are more sporadic based on new findings and digital misinformation.

Why do this?

Someone has to do it!

Who are you to say this?

I am the only person from the Coastal Empire that grew up the way that I, in particular, grew up around technology and willing bystanders. Today's youth deserve better, and withholding my efforts is no better than trying!

Thank goodness!

Yes, thank you! This is the greatest show of support that I have for the life that surrounds me. I hope that one day I can see it working in my own life so that I may be able to bring balance to this world and create a select platform that offers security and peace.
