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”

Real Talk: Autism

April 16th, 2025 There is a lot going on in the world, and it’s difficult for me to pick up a single thread and follow it through in a meaningful way, especially when the people in charge insist on tangling every wire we own. I’m not about to start targeting every person on my feedContinue reading “Real Talk: Autism”

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”

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”

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”

Semester I

December 15th, 2024 Last night, I submitted my last project of the semester. I just did a semester of college! That’s one down, this time around. So: what did I learn? Turns out: a hell of a lot. College did not radicalize me, or even re-radicalize me. I have actually been rad most of myContinue reading “Semester I”
