July 22nd, 2025 I’m almost done with my summer Ethics class and I am intolerable. Allow me to annoy you with my pointed criticism of cultural biases (it’s like all I do these days). I’ve written several essays over the years about philosophy. I once talked about how all of it was pointless up toContinue reading “Shadows on the Wall”

Higher, Further, Faster
May 23rd, 2025 My spring semester (and first official full school year) ended on Monday. I did it. I took six classes this semester (the most I will ever have to take) and still somehow managed to maintain a 4.0 GPA. That’s pretty cool. But that’s not even what I’m most proud of. I wroteContinue reading “Higher, Further, Faster”
This Is 40
May 1st, 2025 It’s my birthday today. I love my birthday. I’m awful like that. I also believe that you should cherish celebrating each one, because there will come a point in time when you cannot. That’s dark, but it’s my birthday. So let’s face facts: I’m supposed to be dead. I did all theContinue reading “This Is 40”
Brushfire Update & The Future Of My Art
April 11th, 2025 Just a little update for my Brushfire fans (I know you’re out there!) and anyone interested in Maple Island and the future of my visual art.
Guthrie Trip
April 5th, 2025 I am forever a theater nerd. When I went back to school last fall, my past in theater emboldened me to seek out similar groups for my educational stay. When I joined the Creative Arts & Writing Club (and subsequently became its president five minutes later), we started talking events, and aContinue reading “Guthrie Trip”
Mother Hand
March 31st, 2025 Earlier this year, I entered my first college writing contest as myself (after many years of writing college papers for other students anonymously). The results came in last night: my personal essay won first place! For my efforts, I receive a monetary prize, my work will be published by DCTC, I getContinue reading “Mother Hand”
School Update: Spring Break ’25
February 26th, 2025 It’s only a week until spring break (holy cow!), so I thought I’d write another school update for anybody who wants to read it. This is a good one. Grab a cup of coffee or hot cocoa (it’s on me) and let’s chat for a minute. So: I haven’t quit! Honest! AndContinue reading “School Update: Spring Break ’25”
help wanted
January 31st, 2024 If you read any of my stuff, I have a question for you! I’m entering an essay contest at school. An instructor really liked one of the papers I wrote last semester and suggested I submit it, but I was wondering: Do you have a favorite essay of mine from over theContinue reading “help wanted”
MAGA Math
January 28th, 2025 MAGA. We did it, y’all. This is actually brilliant. Do you remember when our stable genius told us during the pandemic that if we tested less people, we would have less cases of covid? That wasn’t untrue! This is the same applied principle: guys, eggs can’t be expensive if you can’t buyContinue reading “MAGA Math”
School’s Out For ’24
December 26th, 2024 Grades were released today. This is probably the last time I’ll ever be able to say this, but: I’m an A student this year! It’s not that I was a bad student when I was younger (though there are probably teachers who would respectfully disagree); I was definitely on the disruptive side,Continue reading “School’s Out For ’24”
