July 8th, 2025 Last weekend, I was playing video games with a little kid (a little kid I know, not some random little kid) and between Mario Kart races he pointed at me and said, “You have a mole on your neck.” At first I thought he was being a dick. Like little kids canContinue reading “The Mole on My Neck”

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”
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”
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”
Men With(out) Fear
March 5th, 2025 I am (clearly) a massive fan of Daredevil; this photo was taken on one of my best friend’s wedding day. (No, he did not allow me to stand before the congregation like this, a missed opportunity in my opinion.) The new season just started on Disney+ and it is not only fuckingContinue reading “Men With(out) Fear”
Equivoque
February 15th, 2025 Do you want to learn a fun sleight-of-hand trick that can reveal a fraud close to you? It’s super neat and I can teach you myself. This isn’t going to be an enjoyable post but it is an essential one. This will help explain where everybody stands. We don’t have to getContinue reading “Equivoque”
Kick The Can
January 26th, 2025 It’s impossible to truly hide. Not wholly. I haven’t really made anyone big mad lately (that I’m aware of), but you know me: I still have these feet, and I still have this mouth. And I feel hungry today. Not sure if you heard, but a church bishop recently made a lotContinue reading “Kick The Can”
Block
January 19th, 2025 It’s funny, trying to unlearn the ways the internet has broken our brains and reverse the damage life has done to our hearts. The world feels like it’s turning faster than normal lately, and I’m not really writing about any of it. Nobody is asking me to, but then again, nobody everContinue reading “Block”
VII: The Phoenix
December 9th, 2024 Seven years ago today, I flamed out. My throat opened and drained the tiny bottle of sauvignon blanc from the trunk of my car and I decided it would be the last drink I would ever have. For then. For now. I don’t have to get into the rest in detail (itContinue reading “VII: The Phoenix”
Bye Bye Bye
November 6th, 2024 Oh, boy. Woof. After a tumultuous few days (though, let’s be honest, it’s really been years), starting tomorrow I will be blocking specific people from my social media accounts. It’s not a small amount. Before I do that, however, I want to explain myself and give you a chance to read it.Continue reading “Bye Bye Bye”
