I thought about updating at least three times yesterday, but I didn’t give myself any shit for not doing it. Baby steps, dude. I did major cleaning/packing/throwing shit out yesterday. I got into a groove and went through most of the most sentimental things that I had saved for years. It’s not necessarily that these…

I’m about to head into a few days of being cooped up at home. It’s shitty outside today, and I’m dropping my car off tonight to the mechanic for the inspection tomorrow. They said it would take a couple days, so I’m without transport for a bit. It’s going to be the perfect time to…

Soundtrack: Good Morning – Alex Aiono I’ve been trying for weeks and weeks to come out here and catch the sunrise. Feels serendipitous it was today.

I always hated Sunday nights. It always meant an end to freedom and a return to the real world of work. The struggle to prove myself. The nights started to bleed into the day, and soon into Saturday. It was as if my world was work, and anxiety about returning to work. Now, I know…

Manhood Without A Map What does that mean to me? How do you learn to be a man? What if you never had any good examples of how men should act? What if, instead of building you up, the men in your life discarded, belittled and used you for their own needs at the expense…
