Because life is what we make of it...
This is our official daughter-dad HALF LIFE CRISIS team webpage.
This project was originally created to artistically express all the stuff that is constantly tumbling around in our minds... and there is plenty of that.
Come visit us often and check our many articles posted on our site and various social media platforms. We're uploading cool stuff any change we get.
Please bookmark this page and share it with all your friends. There is plenty to read & watch! You can literally spend entire days on this site! Thank you for your visit!
One of the reasons why I started Half Life Crisis is because I have a lot to say, and the best way for me to communicate is through my writing. And I write a lot!
My writing style is nonfiction, thought-provoking, and mind-blowing. I put a warning on the covers because they will make you see the world in a new way.
The second reason why we started Half Life Crisis was because Sammy showed an affinity for the arts. Hence this became her platform, and today we share it other artists.
Enjoy our articles, there is plenty more!
BeeZee Vision, my other Passion
These are two published books!
Nonfiction. A historical analysis of authoritarian propaganda that serves as a guide to understand the perils of authoritarianism hidden in plain sight today and teaches how to defeat propagandists.
Nonfiction. A thought-provoking historical analysis truly defining "woke" and how this term became a catalyst for propagandists around the world, and especially the USA.

This is our family project!
Welcome to Half Life Crisis™! If you scrolled down this far,
please know that you’re awesome and we appreciate you! This is a quick story
about Half Life Crisis™.
I had the idea of starting Half Life Crisis™ after
visiting friends in Easter Europe back in 2011.
Essentially, I was starting a chapter in my life with my new family and -wham!
– I got an epiphany. I’m so lucky to leave
each day to the fullest, yet life moves so freaking fast! Finally, before 202
came to an end, I got a chance to sit down and upload this project online.
Long story short, I wanted to create a virtual place where I
get to share (and rant) about stuff that has worked out for me while trying to
live as an adult. I am a lucky guy who shares a domicile with two wonderful
ladies (who are generally kind enough to tolerate my shenanigans, as seen in
this picture with my daughter).
Hope you
enjoy our site; it is growing a lot more than we ever imagined!
Hi, this whole thing was my crazy idea and somehow it is working! Thank you for visiting!
Hi, this is where I get to express my little universe to the world! Thank you for your visit!
Hi, I get to check my hubby's grammar whenever I can. I'm also a huge fan of this site!
Hi! I created Half Life Crisis to rant... a lot, about kind of things I find interesting and as a platform to showcase my daughter's artwork.
Sammy is our main Half Life Crisis visual artists. Sammy sees the world in a very unique way, and she communicates her impressions through her abstract artwork.
Alicia is my wife and Sammy's mom. Alicia generally tolerates Sammy's and I shenanigans, and she is supportive of our adventures at Half Life Crisis.
