I’m Not a Gift, but I Want a Gift
The screen washed her face in blue light. Marta scrolled through profiles like trading cards: the awkward ones—swipe left; the loudmouths with barroom grins—swipe left; the “I like sunsets and the sea” types—swipe left.

Ten Ways I Failed as a Canadian Teaching in Japan (And What I Learned From It)
The Shocking Truth About Teaching Abroad When I first moved from Canada to Japan to teach English, I thought I was prepared. I grew up chatty, curious, and able to ramble about everything from politics to maple syrup.

Love Everlasting
I think my belief in love may have been revived, which is as frustrating as it is encouraging. For a long time, I found it easier—safer even—to believe that true love didn’t really exist. Convincing myself that “fairy tale love” was a myth allowed me to feel as though I wasn’t missing out on anything other couples seemed to have. I could shrug off the Instagram-perfect relationships, the romantic anniversaries, and the declarations of “soulmates forever” without feeling a sting of envy. In fact, I had become quite content in my solitude. I had made peace with loneliness, treating it not as a punishment, but as a quiet companion.

Was Martin Luther King Jr. an INFJ? The Personality Type of a Civil Rights Icon
What made Martin Luther King Jr. one of the most uniquely powerful leaders of the 20th century?

Astérion, an Easy Target?
Astérion is not your typical influencer. Far from provocative or overly polished personalities, he has built a community around simple, honest content often marked by gentle humor, nostalgia, or passion. He talks about what he loves: vintage objects, pop culture, video games, and sometimes himself. Nothing aggressive, nothing pretentious. And yet, this very posture has made him the target of increasing harassment, both online and in real life.
