Hey… come on in.
Nothing special you need to bring with you.
If you showed up a little worn, that’s fine. If you showed up steady, that’s fine too. This ain’t a place asking to arrive a certain way.
We let music set the pace.
Catch up when you’re ready.
This is Ink Radio.
I’m here.

i am a demanding creature. i am selfish and cruel and extremely unreasonable. but i am your servant. when you starve i will feed you; when you are sick i will tend you. i crawl at your feet. for you alone i will be weak.

not all love is gentle. sometimes it’s gritty and dirty and possessive， sometimes it’s not supposed to be careful or soft at all. sometimes it feels like teeth.

perhaps this is what the stories meant when they called somebody heartsick. your heart and your stomach and your whole insides felt empty and hollow and aching.

i love you. i'll write it in waves. in skies. in my heart. you'll never see， but you will know. i'll be all the poets，i'll kill them all and take each one's place in turn，and every time love's written it will be to you.

No more lies if I disappear
Just one less light on the chandelier

Be a force for good in the world if you can.
After that, be a wrathful sea witch or an avenging shadow of the old forest, or something cool like that.

to love someone is firstly to confess: i'm prepared to be devastated by you.

You are not alone.
Find your community.
Find them in libraries, taverns, and art stores.
Find them in haunted mansions and the ruins of crumbling castles.
Find them in dark mossy forests, shambling in the gloom between trees and under ancient starlight.

We can be harsh critics of our own work, and sometimes it can be tough to believe we should make something exist if it doesn't feel right, or it doesn't feel perfect.
But the art that exists is always better than the art that does not.
Create. And then keep creating. 😁

Whether you draw, or paint, or compose, or mix - whatever form of art you choose to create, make it exist. Bring it to life. Create it in a tangible form that can be enjoyed.
It need not be perfect. It might need work. It might serve as practice. It might even remain unfinished.
Just create. 😁

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is stay soft in a world that keeps asking you to harden up.
Pay attention to what steadies you — a quiet moment, a voice, a song — and keep those things close. They ain’t escapes; they’re anchors.
