Dear 2016

Opportunities came into my life, and I took advantage of them. I learned some new skills that would come to serve me well in the coming year.

Let’s just say office work is something I enjoy.

With that said, I want to take the time to say that some crazy things have happened. Someone was elected President of the United States, and it felt like it wasn’t supposed to happen.

I hope it turns out for the best, but we’ll see.

As for the celebrities dying, that wasn’t cool. All of the things that could scare us or ypset us happened. 2016, it’s not me.

It’s you.

We must part ways in a few minutes, but know that 2017 will be the year of rediscovering ourselves.

Here’s to a productive 2017.

Following Dreams

I don't post here often, so when I do, it hopefully means something. I've observed that this is a year of opportunity, and ut has been. I learned new skills so I can become more flexible in the long run. Versatility is important to me. Now that we are almost through the summer season, I want to take the time to talk about the future of the website and my future endeavors. Rest assured that I am not going anywhere and I will be doing the same things that I have been. I am just going to see to it that I will be in the position to follow my heart and my passion. I currently work in retail, and though I've enjoyed it immensely, I don't want to be stuck there forever. I want to build that media empire that I've been dreaming of for years. The first step will involve more content for the website, which I'll be posting later today. The ultimate goal is to set up a podcasting network with multiple hosts who have multiple shows. This network would also be involved with advising other individuals on improving their online presence as well. What can I say? Dreaming big is important. The biggest hurdle is funding. In the coming days, I will be setting up a crowdfunding campaign to get things started. I know that it's an election year, so it may prove challenging. Regardless, I don't know if I don't try. Stay tuned. --Thomas

There’s something infinitely wrong when society watches a movie about mysterious forces and light swords set in outer space and they take away that a girl displaying technical/mechanical knowledge is “too much” and “unrealistic.”

I’ve been seeing a disturbing amount of articles, posts, and comments saying that Rey is “unrealistic” for knowing tech/mechanics. One review, which I’m still really hoping was a joke, implied that Disney probably had a female STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) agenda or group sponser them because there really wasn’t another reason why Rey would have STEM-like skills. What’s even more upsetting is the fact that, while I’ve seen people rush to defend her force ability and fighting skills, I’ve seen no one defend her STEM-skills.

If Rey spent years scavenging material and sewing clothes, you’d expect her to be proficient in that. You probably wouldn’t even doubt anything she did with those skills. So why doubt her STEM knowledge? The comments saying that Rey’s technology and mechanic skills “come out of nowhere” aren’t exactly true. Rey has been on Jakku for about fourteen years, where she likely spent most of that time finding tech and working with machines, learning what each device did and what parts were valuable, finding and fixing things up for payment. Are you telling me that in her years and years of work experience, you really think she retained absolutely nothing? Why is it that the thought of a girl who knows tech and mechanics is able to make some so uncomfortable? In The Phantom Menace, Anakin was about half Rey’s age and a skilled pilot who was building C-3PO and, curiously enough, I’ve never seen a comment doubting his skills. So why are Rey’s skills so wrong? I agree that the writing/exposition didn’t overly explore or explain all of Rey’s skills, and I understand that the audience wasn’t shown much detail, but in a universe where there’s planet-blasting bases and music-making aliens, saying that Rey being able to have tech and mechanic skills is “unrealistic" is downright insulting.

What I find to be just as irritating is turning every form of entertainment into some form of political expression. I wouldn’t be surprised regarding the criticisms of The Force Awakens. There are holes in the plot that will hopefully be filled in the movies that follow. However, to fail to cite even a couple of instances in which people wrote that certain things were unrealistic is one way to weaken your own argument. I no doubt may be able to find examples, but if an argument is being made, it’s made stronger when one doesn’t have to go out and look for them. Furthermore, it amuses me to no end when individuals bitch one way or another about a FICTIONAL STORY THAT TAKES PLACE IN A FICTIONAL UNIVERSE! -Thomas

Season’s Greetings

We want to wish everyone a Happy Holiday Season as a variety of celebrations have commenced and will continue until the end of the year. 2016 shall be an interesting year to say the least. Thomas put too much pressure on himself and realizes that he can not keep doing that to himself. The reality in and of itself is that The *Nixed Report will still be here next year and hopefully many more to come. After observing some other venues, and other frustrations within said venues, he came to the conclusion that the priority should be to grow the audience first and foremost with top notch content from the website, the podcast, and other projects. In short, stay tuned for a video in which he explains himself. Thank you in advance for your time and Happy Holidays to everyone.

Estonia Has Risen from Its Soviet Roots to Become a Country for the Future

A mere quarter of a century ago Estonia was a very poor backwater on the Baltic Sea that was still under domination of the Soviet Union. But the country’s story is one of remarkable—and improbable—success.

Estonia has been the most successful of the former communist-controlled countries. It is arguably the most advanced country in the world when it comes to use of the Internet and related technologies.

Modern Estonians enjoy the rule of law, the lowest debt-to-GDP ratio in the EU, a balanced budget, free trade, and a flat-rate income tax — all of which have led to their high economic growth and prosperity.

Estonia ranks number 22 out of 152 countries on the Human Freedom Index, number 8 out of 186 economies on the Index of Economic Freedom, and ranked in first place in the Freedom in the World report.

Learn about Estonia’s miraculous success story…

Remember folks, don't let your kids get a hold of your phone.
