• Game Project — The Sun Rises

    The Sun Rises and Game Writing Game design has been an interesting field to me for a while, but I haven’t been interested in the programming aspect. I was interested in the actual narrative of the gameplay and the creation of the world and characters. So writing the game script was far more interesting me…

  • So You Want to Talk About Race

    So You Want to Talk about Race by Ijeoma Oluo I first heard about this book while it was being written. I follow Ijeoma Oluo’s Facebook Page and Twitter, and enjoy her witty analysis of current events, odd happenstance, and biting mic drops. Finding her voice was partly due to a friend I know who…

  • On How I curated my 2018 Reading List

    I’ve been meaning to update my blog with my reading goals, but I took awhile to decide what to read this year. Part of this is because I had to establish where I stand in relation to my healing journey, my spiritual journey, and my social justice activism. I also needed to build up my…

  • Clarification of Entangled Truths

    In my last entry, I discussed my spiritual and/or political journey. I avoid discussion of religion a lot on this blog, mostly because I want to focus more on my writing, art, and science. However, I wanted to offer this clarification as a way to frame the context of the Entangled Truths post. After this,…

  • Entangled Truths: A Journey

    Entangled Truths A Journey of Hard and Important Lessons Content Note: Discussion of faith, spiritual abuse, abuse mentions, sexual assault mentions, death threats. EDIT as of 7/18/2021: I talked through the trauma of this story with my therapist, and he pointed out that the “therapy” my family drove me too in 2004-2006 was actually conversion…

  • A Wrinkle in Time

    When I was a child, I read Madeline L’Engle’s books to death. A Wrinkle in Time was one of my ultimate favorites, and I read it nearly as many times as I read A Ring of Endless Light (from her Austin series). There was this sense of magic despite the science nature of the Murray’s…

  • An Art Show

    For the month of March, my fractal art will be on display at the local Unitarian Universalist Church! This means I may have potential buyers for my art. My pricing really depends on the piece. I do not give out the digital copy unless the person is willing to pay for that extra, and it’s…

  • Thoughts on Gun Control and America’s Gun Violence Problem

    Guns were invented for killing, and yet they are barely regulated at all in some states. Human lives should matter more than guns, and the science of gun control shows that it works in stemming gun violence. We are literally the only ‘developed’ country in the world who has this problem.   This is a…

  • An Intention to Explore Ideas and Beliefs

    This post covers ideas such as intentions do not erase consequences, positive outlooks should not ignore injustice, and journalism is rarely if ever 100% objective.

  • 2018: Dawn of a New Year

    2017 has been a time of recovery for me. Most of it I spent sick or healing from trauma. Politics have made life a living hell in my current country, especially due to terrible policies that harm oppressed/marginalized groups to a large degree. This hasn’t really helped my health at all, but at least I…
