Finding My True Family
Greetings, Vocal readers! I've been very open about who I am for the last several years in numerous stories. I fully embrace my true self daily and unapologetic for it. Despite Republican politicians increasingly attempting to silence and denying our existence, our voices will grow even louder. I'm going to tell a story about how an event changed my life forever. Be sure to sound off in the comments below and be sure to like this story once you have read it. If you have any questions about what I look for in a guy, please also share them down below. Also, follow me on my socials. Finally, please send me a one-off tip at the end of this story to support my work as I continue to write and publish more stories.

Intersectional Mental Health Disparities. Content Warning.
This is a researched opinion paper for a Social Services & Behavioral Health class, and I figured that I wanted to share it with the world. I believe that the points touched upon in this paper are valid, now more than ever in this political climate.

Name Me Thunder
Dedication For the ones who look in mirrors and flinch, but stay. For the hands that bind, the voices that stutter, the bodies that linger too long in shadows. For the souls who loved themselves in fragments, and called that act holy. You are not broken. You are the storm the silence tried to outlive.

Silent Colors, Loud Hearts
Every June, the city came alive with a tide of rainbow flags, laughter, and music — but to Sam, it always felt like a festival meant for someone else. Hidden beneath baggy shirts and borrowed silence, Sam walked past the painted sidewalks and the crowded streets of Pride Month with lowered eyes and a tightened heart. No matter how vibrant the world became around them, Sam remained gray on the inside — not from lack of color, but from fear of what might burst forth if they dared to open up.

When we Stand Together, We Expand Together
I am not queer. That feels important to say—not to center myself, but to be honest about the position I speak from. I don’t know what it’s like to walk into a room and immediately scan it for safety, wondering if a glance, a joke, or a single word might shift everything. But I know what it means to love someone who does. I know what it’s like to watch someone soften their voice or swallow their truth. I’ve seen people I care about carry themselves with quiet courage in a world that makes their identity a battleground.

The American Dream: One Nation, Many Stories
The United States of America — a name that echoes with power, promise, and purpose. Across oceans and continents, it’s a symbol of freedom. For some, it's a dream; for others, it's home. But behind the stars and stripes lies something deeper: a story of people. A story of resilience. A story of unity in diversity.

The Bold and the Fabulous . Content Warning.
The art of embracing our true selves is something that we should be doing unapologetically. For yours truly, the journey from hiding the real me to being out and proud was a difficult one. I'm going to share my own personal story and how I'm living my life today as a gay man.

Why I’m Proud of My Roots: A First-Generation Immigrant’s Voice
Why I’m Proud of My Roots: A First-Generation Immigrant’s Voice Introduction: Who I Am and Where I Come From They say identity is a journey. For me, it has been an ocean—deep, unpredictable, and endlessly vast. I was born in a land where my name was not strange, my accent was not noticeable, and my food didn’t need translation. But that land became a memory when my family moved across continents, chasing a better life and sacrificing almost everything familiar to start from zero. I became a first-generation immigrant overnight—young, confused, and silently holding the weight of two worlds.
