September 1st, 2025 There’s a trend, but it’s not new; it’s as old as internet time (was there anything before?). It’s the idea of sharing something that absolutely does not need to be shared, in order to signal to others what tribe or political feed you subscribe to. There’s a version of this making theContinue reading “The Ends of the Earth”

A Little Less Alone
August 28th, 2025 I live in Minnesota, so the morning after a horrific tragedy I wasn’t surprised to open social media and see so much ugly. (A lot of this ugly coming from so-called Christians, who have spent the last decade showing all of us, including their Jesus, who they really are and what theyContinue reading “A Little Less Alone”
Everything I Ever Was
August 12th, 2025 Whenever I’m feeling spicy (and I’ve been very spicy this week [don’t act like you didn’t notice]), my ongoing recovery reminds me to reflect on myself and figure out why. Sometimes it’s a complex web of things, anxiety and doubt and my schedule and projects and the state of the world, butContinue reading “Everything I Ever Was”
Liberty & Justice
August 8th, 2025 This afternoon, I was doing my routine paid eavesdropping (you have no idea how much we know about you from the tea you spill freely and sloppily at your favorite establishments, but I will tell you right now, it’s more than you think). I generally hear clips and phrases out of context,Continue reading “Liberty & Justice”
Leaving Me Here On My Own
July 28th, 2025 I finished my summer Ethics course this week, and to wrap it up we had to film a short video about what we learned. I feel so strongly about taking this class that I wanted to share it with you, too. Feel free to respectfully debate me anytime. “I had a fantasticContinue reading “Leaving Me Here On My Own”
Darkroom
May 31st, 2025 I’ve been wondering why life has felt so chaotic and fast lately and then realized I wasn’t writing much of it down. Not here. I haven’t been processing correctly. Instead of developing my memories and experiences in a quiet darkroom, investigating their details and exploring their mysteries as they slowly materialize, I’veContinue reading “Darkroom”
Confidence & Perspective
May 7th, 2025 Howdy, y’all. I have an art gallery this weekend at Mind’s Eye Comics in the Burnsville Center that you should totally check out; you should also check out this video where I talk about confidence (and the lack of it), perspective as we grow, and how my gallery is a fight againstContinue reading “Confidence & Perspective”
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”
