The Jobs Report That Wasn’t a Crash, Just a Stall With the Seatbelt Light On
On September 5, 2025, the August jobs report landed like an anemic cough. U.S. nonfarm payrolls rose by a mere 22,000, a number so small you could tuck it into a single suburban warehouse and still have space for a pickleball court. The unemployment rate ticked up to 4.3%, the highest in nearly four years.

The Antichrist With a Red Tie
I am not religious. I have never mistaken a casserole for communion or believed that a televangelist’s sweaty forehead could save me. But if you flip through the Book of Revelation—an acid-trip fever dream of beasts, trumpets, and plagues—it feels like a spoiler alert for American cable news. Specifically, it reads like a casting call

The Rose Garden Wasn’t the Only Thing Repaved
On September 4, 2025, President Trump staged what the official invite called a “White House dinner to celebrate American innovation.” What actually unfolded was a glossy loyalty ritual with better catering. The guest list read like a Silicon Valley shareholders’ meeting relocated to Washington: Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai, Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, Satya Nadella, Arvind

Love Isn’t a Rose Ceremony—It’s Tuesday at 2 A.M. Accept This Apple, my reimagining of Snow White, is available now.
Read Accept This Apple and explore my Amazon author page. The Faeries Tell series has one unruly mission: keep the shine, fix the wiring, and invite everyone who’s been standing just off-camera to step into the light. Each book reimagines a “problematic” fairy tale through trauma-literate realism, queerness without spectacle, and modern logistics—because real magic

When Right Eats Right: Newsmax, Fox, and the Great Conservative Antitrust Cage Match
On September 3, 2025, Newsmax decided that if you can’t beat Fox in ratings, you might as well sue them for antitrust violations. The conservative underdog filed a scorched-earth complaint in the Southern District of Florida, accusing Fox Corp. and Fox News of monopolizing the right-leaning TV news market for years. The laundry list of

The 226-Page Love Letter to Google: Antitrust as Performance Art
On September 2, 2025, U.S. District Judge Amit Mehta finally dropped his long-awaited remedy order in the Justice Department’s search-monopoly case against Google. Two-hundred and twenty-six pages of judicial prose, the kind that smells faintly of toner and resignation, landed with a thud that echoed through Washington and Silicon Valley. For all the build-up—whispers of

Apple’s Vision Air: Because What We Really Need Is a Computer Glued to Our Faces
Remember when technology promised freedom? When the dream was sleek portability, intuitive design, and tools that faded into the background so we could live fuller lives? That dream has now become strapping magnesium-plastic ski goggles to our heads and pretending this is “casual wear.” On September 1, 2025, the rumor mill reignited with reports that

Texas Passes 835 New Laws in One Night The Midnight Mass of Statecraft
Texas loves a spectacle. Rodeos, Friday night lights, the eternal battle between Whataburger and In-N-Out. But nothing captures the state’s flair for drama like September 1, 2025, when 835 new laws took effect at the stroke of midnight. Not one or two. Not even a tidy fifty. Eight hundred and thirty-five. If democracy is usually

When the Dog Who Saved Me Needs Saving Too
There are few relationships as pure and transformative as the one between a person and their dog. Daisy isn’t just my pet. She isn’t just company. Daisy is the love of my life—the reason I kept breathing on nights when I didn’t think I could. She has been my anchor, my laughter, my comforter, my

Trump’s Executive Order to Federalize Elections: Democracy’s Paper Cut
The great thing about American democracy is that it’s supposed to be decentralized. States set the rules, counties run the polls, and federal courts swoop in every so often to remind Florida it cannot legally stage a coup in its public libraries. But Donald Trump, never one for details like the Constitution, has now declared
