And also I'm not actually scared of anything, i've just been surrounded by scaredy cats my whole life…Seriously now, I don’t believe anything scares me, i just react like that not out of fear but out of knowing that that is something I should be scared of and that that is something i should be scared of or because i know that people will react a certain way if i am scared of something and I enjoy the reaction.It gives me a sense of happiness, being able to predict people. Is that bad?

Fireworks and Flypasts - Are They Ever Truly Needed?
Hi there! The poem below is for you if you like to question how come things are done. Its purpose - in my view - is to highlight negative aspects of ‘celebratory’ fireworks and flypasts, encouraging us to choose what we truly need this July (and beyond).

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.
