Or rather, I started crying, because I didn’t have the courage to let myself cry all the way. These past few months in therapy have been some of the hardest I’ve ever had to face, because for the first time, I’m talking in depth about how much my brother’s illness has affected me since he was diagnosed almost eight...

There’s a game I really love called Signalis; in fact, it’s one of my favorite games of all time. In it, you follow the odyssey of Elster, a synthetic android with feminine characteristics who is searching for her ship’s pilot, who disappeared after a crash. Yes, there’s a lot of Yuri in this story, and the lesbian...

You would think that the longer you spend in a stable relationship, the easier the decision to get married becomes. I mean, maybe that’s how it is for a lot of people, but in my case, it was the complete opposite. It was right when I started thinking about proposing that I began asking myself the questions that...

Work gives me a certain cheap sense of purpose that makes me feel good. And yes, I’m talking about corporate work, the 9-to-5, the most basic kind you can think of. It makes me feel good because every day I show up at the time I was told to, do what someone else asks me to do, and then leave at the time I’m allowed...

Having daddy issues, mommy issues, and family issues in general is a huge nerf to anyone’s development. I’ve experienced it firsthand, and I’ve also seen it and talked about it with others—especially with those who don’t share the same trauma as me. For a long time I carried the role of the victim (not anymore,...

Now, after yesterday’s dark post, here’s a post about a chair. Living in the age of excessive consumerism definitely has its sweet side. On one hand, I have endless options to fully enjoy my passions and hobbies. If I like something and it’s popular enough, there’s the book, the movie adaptation, the cereal, the...

Trigger warning: Everything you’ve seen in the news + mental health and anxiety School shootings are not common in the country where I live. In fact, we can count them on one hand and still have fingers left over. When they do happen, they’re a true anomaly because guns here are not easy to access. Still, back in...

I think we should shit on any art that uses generative AI; no exceptions, no matter what it’s being used for. I read Future Perfect post, and it inspired me to talk about it. He talks about the frustration of hearing others talk shit about a local band’s poster that used AI, and he says: Like, for fuck’s sake! These...

Two weeks ago I finally decided to design my blog’s theme once and for all, and what you’re looking at right now is the (almost) final version. I postponed this for over a year for different reasons, but mostly because I felt very rusty when it came to CSS. It’s something I learned in a crash course a few years ago...

Aliens, those mysterious creatures hiding in the vastness of the universe. The endless fuel for the first generations of modern conspiracy theorists, the same ones who have devoted their entire lives to proving their existence and exposing the efforts governments have made to keep them hidden from us. Today, thanks...

What’s the point of writing on a blog that few people (or no one) reads? The eternal question. The question Brittany asked in her post. A question that, despite our best efforts as a blogging community, we haven’t managed to answer definitively. And it’s not that it’s a difficult question, but rather that it’s one...

Today is day #3 since our internet service decided to give up... Somehow... I'm still alive... If that first sentence sounds like it was pulled from the diary of someone slowly losing their mind, I apologize, because that’s certainly not the case.1 At least, I’m not the one losing it in this house. Almost 72 hours...
