I’m Bruce, a straight-talking Gen X soul who enjoys life’s curiosities and conversations. I’ve always had a wide range of interests. I like to learn just enough about almost anything to keep a good chat flowing.

HI THERE. I AM BRUCE
I value honesty, humour, and forward-thinking ideas, but I also enjoy questioning the world around me rather than taking it at face value.
I believe in making the most of the present while keeping an eye on the bigger picture.
My interests are wonderfully eclectic, ranging from the practical to the philosophical.
Off-Grid Electrical Systems
I’m fascinated by the freedom that comes with off-grid living. The idea that you can power your life without being tied to the grid is both practical and liberating. I enjoy exploring how technology, clever design, and a bit of hands-on know-how can open up possibilities for independence and adventure.
Friends and Friendship
For me, friends are the people who make life worth living. I value honesty, loyalty, and laughter, and I think true friendship is about being there when it counts, not just when it’s easy. The best conversations, the biggest laughs, and the strongest support all come from the right people around you.
AI and My Future with AI
AI excites me, but it also unsettles me. The pace at which it’s advancing is incredible, and while I can see the benefits, I can’t help but wonder if we’re heading toward a future where humans lose control. I like questioning where this technology might take us, and whether we’re ready for the consequences.
Social Media
Social media is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it connects us in ways that were impossible a generation ago, and I enjoy seeing how ideas, stories, and people spread. On the other hand, it’s also a place where noise and nonsense thrive. I try to use it as a tool for connection, not distraction.
Surviving an Apocalypse
I’ve always been intrigued by survival scenarios and the thought of what it would take to make it through when everything else collapses. It’s not just about stockpiling, but about resourcefulness, resilience, and having the mindset to adapt. I find it a fascinating mix of fantasy and practicality.
Photography and Videography
I love the way a camera can freeze a moment or capture a story that words sometimes can’t. Photography and videography give me the chance to play with perspective, light, and detail, and I enjoy finding beauty or meaning in the everyday. For me, it’s about creating memories and sharing experiences through a lens.
