ATTN: If you’re a DoJ employee and have knowledge of the missing minute (or 2:53) of Epstein jail video, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

Probably my favorite thing I’ve bought myself: the Miyoo Mini Plus retro handheld. $66 on Amazon, runs on Linux, 3.5-inch IPS screen with 640x480 resolution, 6 hour battery life, 128 GB of storage and can emulate up to early 32-bit.

I was 16 in Maui when some teens assumed I was a boy. I didn’t correct them—but my sister did. Watching their faces change in real time made me want to disappear.

When I’m not writing, I’m gaming. Gaming has always been a form of therapy and self care for me, it’s even inspired a few of my works🎮. What’s your favorite game?

“I felt it before I saw it—the prickling at my neck, like a warning from some deeper sense. Davenport called it the sixth sense; the thing hunters developed after enough blood spilled. But this was different—older, heavier.” (from Demons & Debutantes, a cosmic horror short I’m rewriting.)
