The Rich Boy Tyrant and the Great Git Consensus
There’s a type of man our era mass-produces.Rich boy. Never hears "no" in a way that sticks. Every failure cushioned by money, lawyers, and someone poorer taking the hit. On the rare occasion he did hear "no" as a child, it probably arrived as a slap from his father; less a boundary, more a jolt … Continue reading The Rich Boy Tyrant and the Great Git Consensus
What Bothers Me and Why
These days? It’s the hush around small betrayals. The way people look away when someone’s benefits are cut for being a day late with a form. The silent shrug when a neighbour’s flat is boarded up because they couldn’t pay rent.What bothers me is how normal it’s all become.How the supermarket at 10 p.m. is full … Continue reading What Bothers Me and Why
The Kind of Future I’m Hoping For
What are you most excited about for the future? Honestly, it’s the possibility that we might get better at admitting how little we know about taking care of each other. I’ve spent years fumbling with that. I know how easy it is to hurt people without meaning to, or to hide when I’m the one … Continue reading The Kind of Future I’m Hoping For
Stones at the river’s edge
What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? I could let go of the need to be understood, the clutching at exact words that prove I meant well.I could loosen my grip on the old injury that says the world will hurt me if I speak wrong.I could let go of the … Continue reading Stones at the river’s edge
The Music That Helps Me Get Things Done
What is your favorite genre of music? When someone asks what kind of music I enjoy most, I think of simple, steady sounds. I tend to choose ambient or minimalist music—something quiet and repetitive that doesn’t demand too much attention.It’s not about big choruses or catchy hooks. It’s about creating a gentle background that helps … Continue reading The Music That Helps Me Get Things Done
Resisting the Upgrade Treadmill
Do you remember life before the internet? When time moved differently, and a computer was just… a computer.It didn’t need to know who you were, didn’t ask for constant connection.You turned it on, and it was ready. Simple. Self-contained.There was a kind of peace in that honesty.These days, I notice how much noise has crept … Continue reading Resisting the Upgrade Treadmill
The Woman Who Haunts Me
Maybe a story rather than a legacy To others, she’s a shadow of light.Not quite visible—but unmistakably there.A breeze without wind.A warmth that flushes the skin.A sense of being held without arms.They say:“She’s never really alone.”“There’s something behind her eyes.”“I felt her, like a memory I never made.”They’re not wrong.She Is MeShe wasn’t conjured or … Continue reading The Woman Who Haunts Me
The Pact Beneath the Shallows
A soft story from before time knew names Before longing, before skin knew touch, life was simple. Creatures copied themselves and moved on. No feeling. No choice. Just silent cycles.But deep in the warmth of an ancient sea, something changed.She was small—so small the sea barely noticed her—but inside her, something stirred. Let’s call her … Continue reading The Pact Beneath the Shallows
The Echo Chamber
I’ll never forget the night I fired up that hulking machine—steel panels glowing like a spaceship altar, wires snaking everywhere, humming like it was alive. The lab smelled like burnt toast and old books. I slapped my palm on the frosty screen, felt it shudder awake, and muttered, “Show me the beginning.”The room flickered. Suddenly, … Continue reading The Echo Chamber
