People judge. People stigmatize. But why? Everybody copes with what they can't control. Everybody just wants to feel good.

"It's just my job." A common excuse to avoid accountability for ethical failures. If the company you work for actively destroys the earth, you are complicit. You are an accessory to the erosion of our quality of life. Your hands are not clean. You are not exempt just because "it's your job." You're a corporate lapdog.

Do you see it? Do you feel it? Mass unemployment, climate change, mass surveillance. So. Much. Decay.

Introducing, the very first Young Adult Musings "Original,"

Indomitable - Don't Fuck Around. This is the first episode of an anthological-esque superhero series debuting with the strongest hero in the verse: Indomitable.

Black market serums are exacerbating crime in the city. Becoming "altered" is making criminals bold.

Going after your dreams is one of the hardest things you can do. Along your journey you'll see people "make it" doing a whole lot less. You'll struggle with comparing yourself to others. You'll do more, try harder for seemingly nothing. All you can do is persevere until you get your chance; your "one."

Introducing a mini series for the Young Adult Musings podcast "Inner Work." A series where I interview myself deconstructing my thoughts and emotions to cope with the uncertainty and frustration of life. In this episode I awake in what my subconscious self calls a "subconscious liminal space." "Not quite a dream, definitely not reality, but constructed BY reality." Enjoy, hopefully something resonates with you.

I was distraught to say the least upon seeing the election results. I felt doomed for a bit but no, I shouldn't; WE shouldn't. Hate Will Never Win.
