Anger can feel like energy.
But vengeance acts more like a drug — lighting the body up before it drains it dry.

My latest essay explores what revenge does to our nervous systems, our communities, and the living world we’re part of.

We often reach for “objectivity” when the world feels unstable.

But objectivity is never neutral — it always sits inside choices, values, and frames we stop noticing.

Today’s essay is about learning to see those frames, without cruelty and without retreat.

I published an essay today about a sneaker wave, a moment unfolded too fast for intervention, and what it means to witness something after it has already passed.

It’s part of Interwoven, a series of field notes on eco-health, attention and the traces events leave behind.

I wrote about an octopus I encountered on the beach at dusk—alive, uncertain, and briefly between worlds.

Living bodies emit faint light during metabolism.

The signal is invisible to us, but it reflects stress, rhythm, and environment.

I wrote about what this science reveals about health and the web of life we’re part of.

Our bodies register instability long before we name it.
Heat, smoke, cold, storms — different triggers, same internal language.

GDP keeps rising even as health and ecological stability decline.
What does prosperity really mean?

My new essay explores why GDP fails to reflect human and environmental well-being — and what better metrics could look like.

AI isn’t just a tool — it’s becoming part of our environment. I wrote about how this shift affects the sensory, cognitive, and social habitats our health depends on.
