“I’m proud of what I’ve achieved on my own.  I am always the first one to clock in and the last to clock out.”

no doubt, no doubt.  good on ya for making those past and future films, with all the help from no one, by yourself.  people like this exist beyond my sphere of comprehension.  On your own.  How about the dude Niepce?  How about Eastman?  How about the schmuck who invented the fucking time-punch machine with which you clock in first and clock out last on a daily basis to prove your superiority!?  How about the fathomless billions who contributed to the human cycle of creation and destruction, which allows you to stand there with your ignorant face, posing for an About Me still, so you can throw it up at OnMyOwn.dick

I’m convinced there are two basic types of people: Those who recognize that, whether they like it or not, people who they will never meet or conceive of WILL have a major impact on their lives….and those who are the other type of person.  I don’t think it’s an accident that the second category of people tend towards conservativism or libertarianism.  As downright worthless as a Libertarian outlook can be rendered upon several seconds of thought, at least those people don’t pretend to care about the existence or impact of other humans.  Conservatives however, will deny the charge until blue in the face and then tell you America should turn the Middle East into a crater.

I am a 26 year-old filmmaker living in NYC.

I had my first two jobs when I was 16 - and have been working two simultaneously since I was 17. No one handed them to me.

I delivered pizza to pay for my tuition while editing a documentary for free to get a foot in the door.

Everyone in my family worked hard to achieve something, and many served proudly in the US military

I self-funded my first film and recently started a small business to continue making my own films.

I am indebted to no one and no one owes me.

I love America and am tired of the liberal slant in Hollywood.

I’m proud of what I’ve achieved on my own. I am always the first one to clock in and the last to clock out.
