I saw your smile, in front of me like a vision.
In every photo with happy memories, you appeared in front of me.
I came to see you, but you didn’t say a word, you couldn’t listen.
Only your soul spoke, even though I was on my knee.
Between the mountains and the fields, you brought out the smile,
I wanted to say a few words to you, but I swallowed.
I felt a peaceful feeling in the clouds for a while,
then my tears in silence shook the mountains as followed.
I did not make a sound, I shouted in soundlessness…
The tears between the cheeks slowly flowed, but no words were spoken by the lips.
Ah, how much joy… but also the pain through the years got you tired…
I left Uncle, by living you… there… at the field… in peace…
Dedicated to my uncle: Ardian Taçe (you will live forever in my heart).

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.
