There's no exit from the road we are on
You Bought the Ticket
A judge confirmed at fifty-five can't borrow the naivety of the twenty-four-year-old who first got noticed. Neither, really, can anyone else.
No Exit is a running series about the escape hatches people reach for once a system stops working: a new party, a return to the founders' vision, an untested self-image, a party retaken from within. Each piece takes the hopeful version seriously, tests it against a real case, and closes the door. No fixes offered, just an honest account of why it doesn't open.
