2026 Update: I have retired my music blog for both issues of cost and interest.

Since 2023, I’ve been writing micro album reviews. These are mostly for myself to remember albums I’ve enjoyed but I realize other people might find them useful for finding new music. I will be adding more as I listen.

Everyone deserves to feel supported and loved, especially the vulnerable.

We contain multitudes, all of us, even the worst of us.

From those multitudes, we make things.

Sometimes the things we make come from the light in us. Sometimes they come from the shadows. Usually, making something requires a bit of both.
