March 15th, 2023 Any ride you survive was worth taking; eventually you’ll take one you don’t. If you’re a normal human who does regular person things (jealous!), you probably don’t read everything I post (and if you’re a weirdo who does, okay, I see you, too). So if you missed it: back at the beginningContinue reading “Because It Kills You”

Raising Them
March 8th, 2023 Ugh. I’m going to take a break from a week in which I finally got back my stolen car, nearly two months after the incident, only for it to try to kill me and have to be returned for further repair, to keep talking about my debut novella, Them. In what placeContinue reading “Raising Them”
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing Review
February 20th, 2023 I finished Matthew Perry’s book this afternoon, and I have a lot of feelings about it. If I were the kind of person to share my feelings, I would do that here, but I’m just not that guy. jk. Let’s get to it. I want to start by saying it is notContinue reading “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing Review”
How Time Got Solid
February 9th, 2023 There is no point to writing on the internet. What does it really matter? What does it accomplish? Does anybody actually need it? Because I love doing things that nobody asked me to do, I write on the internet. I started taking it seriously in 2017, or as serious as I canContinue reading “How Time Got Solid”
Caption This
In my first post about Online Writing, I addressed why I do the things I do. (Tldr: I’m an idiot.) Now I want to talk about when and how. I was once a regular internet user, just like you. I would quote cringey song lyrics, use cringey language, say cringey things about my cringey feelings,Continue reading “Caption This”
Panic at the Distrust
January 23rd, 2023 I’ve had some real revelations this week on my issues with trust. Growing up, I was generally untrusting. I struggled to articulate why. I had clear reasons: bad things happened to me. Bad things happened to people I loved. People talked about bad things other people did to them or, still, otherContinue reading “Panic at the Distrust”
thx
January 12th, 2023 Hi. Marvel and I just wanted to thank everyone who reached out to us this week. It’s been a challenging one. I can’t even imagine going through something like this alone, because I was anything but: from all the family and friends who offered kind words and support, to co-workers who letContinue reading “thx”
One Last Thing
December 24th, 2022 Tomorrow is a last thing and this time of year brings up a lot of last things. The last time she made the thing you love. The last time she laughed at one of your jokes, and you laughed at her laugh. The last time you sat next to her at theContinue reading “One Last Thing”
R-E-S-SOBRIETY
December 11th, 2022 Okay, this is both an appreciation post for the best co-workers ever (look at this effing cake!) and a passive-aggressive reminder of what you, a normal person, can do for the sober people in your life. When people decide to get sober, it is often daunting and overwhelming. Every solid decision splintersContinue reading “R-E-S-SOBRIETY”
V
December 9th, 2022 You were this close to living in a Dennis-less world. That’s one of the parts of my past we don’t talk much about. I’m not saying it would have been a better place or worse place, but it definitely would have been a different one. Today marks five years since I tookContinue reading “V”
