My First Short Amateur Film
I have always had an interest in dabbling in the various branches of the creative arts. Over the past five years, I’ve primarily focused on writing—fiction, poetry, reflective pieces, and the occasional odd experiment that didn’t fit neatly into any category. In July 2024, I stepped into the world of AI‑assisted music. I’ve had a modest amount of success there, especially with my songs Blackbird Fly and Superstar (The Legend Lives On). The former is currently enjoying moderate streaming in Japan, which still surprises me in the best possible way. My first album, Isabel, has reached around 20,000+ streams across various platforms, which is more than I ever expected when I first hit “upload.”

America’s Least Useful Innovations...
Innovation is the backbone of America. Not the useful kind... no, the other kind. The kind born in windowless conference rooms. The kind introduced with a slide deck. The kind that solves problems nobody has, while quietly creating several new ones.

The Hug Hurdle
I have always hated it when random people touch me. I have been guilty of cringing when perfectly nice people have tried to pull me in for a little side hug. A pat on the back? I jump. This causes immediate suspicion. "What were you up to that made you jump that high? Something bad, FOR SURE!"

Dieudonné: Understanding Why His Humor Is Restricted in France
Dieudonné M’bala M’bala has been at the center of one of the most unusual cultural debates in France for more than twenty years. Seen by some as a gifted performer and by others as a provocateur who crossed key boundaries, he now occupies a unique place in discussions about artistic freedom, the limits of comedy, and the role of public speech in a democratic society. Why have some of his shows been restricted? Why does he generate such strong reactions from institutions and the media? This article offers a clear and detailed exploration of the phenomenon in ten essential points.

The Miss Gloria Hour with Guest Dharrsheena Raja Segarran. Content Warning.
The Opening Monologue “So, I was told today that my ratings dipped a bit on Spotify. Last week’s episode pulled in 2 million streams, compared to 2.5 million for the debut with Lil Hammertoe. I’m not supposed to talk about this publicly, but what the hoot, I’m Gloria, I break rules. Oliver Olivier and Jason Pooper Scooper are watching the numbers closely. After the sixth episode, this is the fifth, they’ll decide whether this show is a safe investment for an additional 22 episodes. If they see any slippage, the show will be wrapped up, and they’ll ship me back to Yucaipa, California faster than a corpse in a shallow grave.

THE LEFT-HANDED PENCIL CONSPIRACY
If you listen closely in classrooms, construction sites, cubicles, and break rooms across America, you’ll hear it. A faint, weary sigh. A sigh belonging to the forgotten, the ignored, the graphite-smudged minority known as… left-handed people.
