Do this one thing for me, please.
Imagine a ball, my ball.
Round shape, soul in heart.
Go on.
Veneer of oblivion,
a shell, coated in charcoal.
A cell for a soul,
black hole.
Holographic explosion,
vivid nuclear reaction.
Only in my soul,
inside.
The lights inside is vibrant,
youthful, lovely, free.
Flashes of warmth;
it’s me.
I’m not open, but I’m free.
I feel ready to release.
To feel the relieve.

Love Letter to Punk
Punk from the early 70s/80s is always very fascinating to me! If we were to conform to punk fashion, what would we be conforming to? Punk is a culture that seems to grow a cult following rather then a generational fad. Right now, it is still a growing community of people. Punk from the 70s/80s is remarkably interesting to me because it was very pure in its form and very dark and mysterious. It was the dawn of a new age, literally.

2023 The Year of Women and Fridging
2023 was an incredible year for women in film. Between Beyonce and Taylor’s concert movies, Barbie and 1 single woman getting nominated for best director at the Oscars there was a lot to celebrate. But just like with anything the universe seeks balance and in 2023 we nerds also experienced something on page and screen that we should have evolved out of decades ago. In the year of Barbie we had not 1, but 2 incidents of fridging in the comic book universe. Both came from Marvel and both are inexcusable. I would love to celebrate how far representation in this field has come, really I would. But I can not do that if we are still making the same mistakes. I am not going to celebrate that there is now less sexual assault in comics. I am not going to celebrate that fridging is less common. I am not going to celebrate that women are infantilized less often in comics. I will not celebrate less. Not in 2024 when every grown person on the planet should know better. I will not be celebrating less. I will celebrate when women are ALWAYS treated like human beings, fictional or not.
