King Stephen
An extraterrestrial introduction to Stephen King
I met some aliens and told em’ welcome to earth. On this beautiful turf I’m gonna show you who gave you worth.
He’ll make your ears ring and make your heart sing. Master of the sci-fi we call him Stephen King.
When you didn’t look appealing to the human eyes King Stephen found a way to make you humanized.
You may not know it, but in this world he gave you all power: “It”, “Dreamcatcher”, “TommyKnockers” and “Dark Tower”.
To everyone who said that your culture was for fools, King Stephen showed up and made you look cool.
He taught us all to take a good look at extraterrestrials and realize the beauty of these celestials.
What more must I say again? King Stephen would be your greatest friend who made humanity appreciate aliens.
The alien stopped me and said enough of your fuss. We already know Stephen King because he’s one of us.

Letter to our Queer & Trans Youth
Hey, you. I thought I’d start this letter by telling you a little about myself, just so you know who you’re dealing with. I’m an emotional dad, father to three amazing kids who we met through the foster care system, and whose presence in our lives has really transformed my sense of responsibility to the communities that surround us. The connections we’ve made with one another, with our extended families, and with the communities where we live and look for belonging have catapulted us into this whirlwind of emotional tumult which, while not easy by any stretch of the measure, has also been remarkably healing. I realize ours is really only a one-sided chosen family, since our kids didn’t get to choose to live here, but I’d like to think that they did choose to let us love them, which allowed them to grow to love us. And I think that’s where I want to go with this letter- to a place where you can find belonging and healing- even if the pathway there may be peppered with some emotional tumult.
