    I’m not wearing these colors because I’m proud.

    A bittersweet 4th of July I wore the colors of the American flag today, despite the fact that in years prior, I’d usually wear all black. It was a way to protest and show my frustration. Almost everything about the country made me angry. The increase of hatred, the lack of empathy from the people…

    Things that should be normalized by the end of 2025

    (In my opinion) What even is normalcy anymore? It is easy to look at the world today and accept harmful things as normal. It’s honestly sad, but before you click off this article, let me tell you that this post is not going to be covering the huge, political issues of modern society. This is…

    When the sky is crying

    Poem by Rock Candy When the sky is crying, I don’t ask it to stop, Even if it screws up my day, Or makes me cry, too. I tell it to let it out, Because if it holds it in for too long, The resulting disaster will be much more destructive, When the sky is…
