A writer with a website: varietal-literature.ca/ [website down until I can raise money to host again]

I was there for the collapse of LiveJournal, MySpace, Google Plus, and now Twitter.

I also host two livestreams a week. One where I read folklore with sfx & drama. The other where I write using Solo TTRPGs & live chat suggestions.

I know that Stephen Miller gets a lot of hate on here, but hear me out.

I think we could hate him more. We have the capacity, we all just need to put in a little more effort.

One of the many downsides of being a sensitive artist type is you can rarely feel better than the world is sick--intoxicants aside. Your whole self is a barometer for tragedy.

two green aliens at a press conference and one says “Jesus? We love that guy!” the human interviewer responds “We've been waiting centuries for his second coming.” the alien says”Really? He comes to us every year.” the second alien adds “We invited him for cookies. What did you do?” after some silence, the first aliens says “Wait.” and the second alien, grimacing says “What did you do?”
