Give me the truth, no matter how uncomfortable. Comfort built on lies isn’t comfort at all.

Caring isn’t a currency you exchange or something that only exists when someone is physically near you. It’s a way of showing up, with presence, intention, and consistency. Nothing is expected in return.

My life, I've lived in hot pursuit of that which u require,
& now I find 'tis knowledge which my 🫀 truly desires.
For truth & all of ⚖️ lays its head upon the pyre,

Guilty conscience has a way of giving over self;
& thus the masses at the wire.

I have one thing to say about the issue of free speech, as it has so become, and it cannot be said better than this:
"Your majesty, and we that have free souls, it touches us not;
let the galled jade wince, our withers are unwrung."
