The Half-Elf. Top Story - June 2025.
1. It starts in a club, as so many crucifixions do. - Seven years ago, today. Neon spills on my chest like fake blood. My wife—full lesbian, full moon—orders something tart, something red.

A Life in Three Parts. First Place in Pride Under Pressure Challenge. Content Warning.
The world is fuzzy. You think you’ve been here before, or maybe this isn’t the first time you’ve woken up. There’s beeping. Voices in the distance—hushed. You don’t think you’re allowed to know what they’re saying. You don’t care.

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.

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.

Unchained Horizons
The sky was bruised with clouds, swollen and heavy, hanging over the broken link of chain that lay abandoned on the asphalt. Beyond it stood a wall—tall, whitewashed, cruelly clean—ringed with barbed wire and crowned with silence. A metal ladder leaned against it like a whisper of rebellion. This was not just any wall. It was a divider of lives, of truths, of past and future. And the chain, once taut with containment, now lay slack and shattered.

🖤 I Am the Wanderer 🖤
I was born among deep chaos, colliding galaxies, and dying stars. There is only hunger and chilly silence—no house, no name, no reign of gold.

unbound. Top Story - May 2025.
2004 when i was in high school, i powerlifted and crude peers joked that my "tits would get hard." this didn't seem like a problem to me, but i knew what they intended to mean—small breasts, flat, more like pecs, defined and masculine. how derogatory of a woman. unfitting and disgusting. my irreverence toward gendered expectations bristled, challenged, and disturbed some. it excited others.
