Things have been happening in my life, and so now I will write about them a bit and let other people have a peek into my private world. I warn those who believe they have such powers of perception as to see into my mind, but I know that I do so in vain. In reality they see nothing but what they want to see, and honestly need not involve me at all unless it’s for untoward purposes. The heat has been unbearable and is actually affecting my…

I Had A Vision
Post
Sometimes I program things.
This one was programmed entirely by me today when I got distracted by a thought.
Here it is for you:

Note: I have been saying the gist of this post for almost a decade now. This isn’t a reactionary “coming to light” moment.
“Change the culture” destroyed everything because it was opposite of what Objectivism is, never mind an organization based around her philosophy is already failing by its own nature.
She didn’t run a “cult.” She never wanted to.
But, everyone around her sure did.
I can’t speak on behalf of Peikoff, and I won’t pretend to, so I say this as an outsider observing the decades-long Legacy left behind: Leonard wanted a cult; Yaron Brook, Andrew Bernstein, and all others involved with the Institute, including Stuart Hayashi, wanted a cult.
My evidence for submission are observations made since I first became aware of Rand at the age of 12: Peikoff spending decades basking in the glory of this mindless throng of “New Intellectuals” (of which I used to be one), acting as almost a wrathful saint in the annals of a dead and closed philosophy; and individuals such as Stuart Hayashi spending years hesitating in fear to fully denounce his shortcomings.
I am a recluse, so I point to Stuart not out of personal animosity, but because he is one name I can highlight as an example of being a drop in a sea of disappointing cowards.

They’re Almost Here

This has ensconced my life for FOUR WHOLE DAYS, which, honestly, feels a bit excessive, but I wanted to be thorough. So now, I sincerely hope that you enjoy the orange marmalade of my labor, decanted and disposed of entirely at my discretion. I scraped it together off the adrenaline sidewalks and plated it exactly how I see fit, health regulations be damned. That’s the advantage of working alone: no hovering clipboards and self-indulgent administrative planners taking credit for nothing or divesting themselves of the same. No cooling…

On Manipulation
Post
… Ultimately, we’re living in a mental health Satanic Panic. Much of this content is often coupled with vivid imagery and hellish struggles and battles against an unknown, nebulous cabal on the more overt end, or is alluded to when people discuss how others might see themselves as “evil” or “bad,” with the edge that maybe they really are. This sensationalistic language, as seen in the metaphors “hellish struggles and battles,” is often used to increase the threat to even religious levels and instill fear and alarm.
… In turn, the influencers invoke power beyond the dreams of avarice, teasing us with rebelliously sexy secrets of the ‘masters in dark psychology.’ Or, on the lighter end, a way to achieve a lifestyle of inner peace devoid of any unwanted conflict, just the psychodrama you already consent to like a video game. Through an analysis of these metaphors, we gain an understanding of the circulation of fear stories, reminiscent of the broader discussion of manipulation. …

echo ‘Hello, World’;
Post
“But, to me, life’s a do-it-yourself karaoke rig set up in the supply closet of your now-discarded coming-of-age montage you were sure would be a bestseller. Every song is one you used to pretend didn’t mean anything, but you just happened to know all the words.”Just fur, collapse, and a painfully accurate memory. A post-collapse transmission from a half-wolf, half-skunk who saw everything and left a bootprint in the timeline dirt.“You matter to you because you matter to you”.“Perfect is what broken people call it when you stop making them uncomfortable.” -
This is a poem I published approximately around January 14th of 2025 on asherwolfstein.com. At this time I don’t have a more accurate date, but I will. This was pulled from an archive.org snapshot.

Small Cumfurts Episode 4
Script
In another post that was deleted (and so will now be an ‘archival post’ when re-published) I talked about projects I had worked on in late-2022. One of those is the now-infamous (a fact!) Small Cumfurts series by yours truly. Background This was originally published in 2025, but it was written in 2022 (not 2023 as I’ve previously written). Specifically on September 13, 2022, six days after Getting Biblical was written. Both were written in one day. This discrepancy, combined with other factors, leads me to quote the…
