Lonely, Upset Rant
What does it mean to be alone? It seems everybody understands feeling alone even among a group of people, but why is that the case? Even with the capacity to connect instantly with a message over the internet, or to participate in get-togethers, I always seem to hit an invisible barrier. Trying to understand more…

Intelligence
A few weeks ago, I helped organize a small get together for a close friend of mine’s birthday at a park in Cypress. Nothing too crazy, but by all intents and purposes it went a lot better than I was expecting! We had a lot of good food, excellent company, music playing at all times,…

Love and Truth
My mood recently has strongly been tilted toward revisiting stuff, so I want to revisit a topic I talked about last year that had some questions still attached to it. Specifically I am referring to my Son of Man and Daughter of Woman posts from last year. The controversy seemed to be over the fact that I gendered the…

New Beginnings Revisited
It’s been a little over a year since I wrote my New Beginnings post, so this is a brief update of where I am. Physically, I’m still near Dallas, Texas with my mom, which is where I have been for about the past two weeks. In pretty much every other way, I’ve been fucking emo lately.…

Pink Guy Prophecy
Aaand this is why I lovehate Youtube. I stumbled across a video, one thing led to another, and I eventually learned that the guy behind this video is insane! Possibly literally, because he currently has a brain thing that he takes meds for. He goes by a couple aliases including Pink Guy, Filthy Frank, and Joji,…

History Unfolding
Today, I walked to the Starbucks near my grandma’s house for the first time! Super exciting right? Stoke-inducing? Mind-exploding? Eh… no, not really. Basically the same menu board, green aprons, long line, and password-protected bathrooms you would see at any other location. I just wanted to build up the hype with that line of questions…

Puzzles and Second Guesses
Every day as a part of her morning routine, my grandma reads the LA Times while eating breakfast and drinking a cup of instant coffee with milk. I thought for sure that paper prints would have gone out of business by now, but I’ve grown to kind of like the fact that this tradition didn’t…

Death of a Bee
A couple days ago, I was walking with my grandma around the block and I noticed a bee caught in a spider’s web. Only one of its wings was stuck, but the collective force of its entire body and other wing flailing around helplessly was not enough to set it free. A short distance up…

Grinding
I’ve been posting a bit less frequently recently, partially because I was in Hawaii last week and partially because I started graduate school. Whatever my reason was, starting now I want to keep up with weekly entries again even if they gradually become shorter. Life is quickly picking up for me from school and work,…

Daughter of Woman
I made a post a few weeks ago talking about the Son of Man archetype, which seemed to get some resistance for good reason. Especially recently, we have been hearing a lot of talk about how gender is a social construct and our outdated understandings contribute to systematic sexism in our world today. My post seemed…
