Friday Bark

First Posts: Friday 11th of July

Friday Bark is a newsletter hosted on Substack that is published at least once a week on Fridays. The newsletter features various posts on fictional and real-life current events, examined through a narrative lens and using MOAT mechanics. The newsletter focuses on fictional debates and short stories that highlight, in seemingly absurd ways, the drifts and bottlenecks of human existence.

Structure/Content

Drift of the Week

Examined actual drift, analyzed spaces, identified levers, and pinpointed logical outliers.

Bottleneck of the Week

Condense and accelerate bottlenecks. The resulting relief from pressure may hold truths, solutions, excuses, or escapism.

Working Whitespace

The calm before the storm. Struggling to explain. Uncomfortable, even embarrassing. – Quiet, yet active. When silence becomes conspicuous.

Off Road – PEC of the Day

Clinging to something that's lost. Trying to salvage a poorly planned bike path can be as pointless as picking shards of glass out of lasagna.

Bark Debates

Fictional debates with a culture of debate, featuring well-crafted arguments from people who'll sell you anything.

Bark Stories

Short stories. Amusing, absurd, edgy.

Bark Hard – MOAT Industrial

Tough Case Studies: Reflections, Models, Approaches, Representations, and Solutions.
