MAGA is a Domestic Terrorist Idealogy: Fires, Bullets, and Quiet Denials
A Sunday service turned into a nightmare. In Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, a man drove a pickup into a Mormon chapel, sprung open fire with a rifle mid-worship, doused the building with gasoline, and watched as flame and lead collided. The local police rushed in. Within minutes he was dead. The dead and wounded, survivors…

Truck, Guns & Fire at Church: The Grand Blanc Massacre, the Vet Suspect, and America’s House-of-Worship Nightmare
The morning sun in Grand Blanc Township, Michigan, had barely cleared the steeples when violence crashed into the sanctuary. What was meant to be a day of worship became an inferno of terror: a truck barreled into a church foyer, gunfire roared, gasoline ignited flames, and an Iraq-war veteran now lies dead among the debris.…

Tribal Theater in Fiji: Survivor 49’s Grand Illusion of Fairness
The two-hour premiere of Survivor’s latest season dropped us straight into the tropics: Fiji. Sand, sweat, whispered alignments, and the familiar tension that says, “You’re not safe.” But what struck me most was not the immunity challenges or the plundered rice rations — it was the spectacle of alliances forming and betrayal already baked in.…

America’s H-1B Visa Paywall: $100,000 to Enter, Please Remove Your Shoes
The United States has many traditions: fireworks on the Fourth, pumpkin spice in the fall, and quietly re-engineering its immigration system with the grace of a demolition derby. This week’s entry comes courtesy of President Donald Trump, who signed a proclamation adding a $100,000 fee to accompany—or maybe supplement, or maybe just vaguely menace—every H-1B…

Welcome to the Eye Economy Mark Zuckerberg took the stage at Meta Connect in Menlo Park and unveiled his latest plan to colonize the human face. Forget the metaverse graveyard; this year the pitch is three new AI glasses, because apparently the only thing keeping us from blissful techno-nirvana was strapping a HUD to our…

Big Little Lies Season 3: HBO’s Attempt at Resurrection Theater
The Prestige Necromancy Business HBO just announced what Hollywood does best: recycling. Big Little Lies—the Monterey mommy noir that gave us Nicole Kidman in silk blouses whisper-screaming about trauma and Reese Witherspoon perfecting the art of weaponized brunch—is being resurrected for a third season.

America’s New Job Fair: Now Hiring Deportation Apprenticeships
The Trump administration has always treated immigration enforcement less like policy and more like a casting call. But now the casting call has become a crash program: 10,000 new ICE officers and 3,000 CBP agents by year’s end. Funded by a $170.7 billion “One Big Beautiful Bill,” the program is less about public safety and…

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…

From a Mountain of Solitude to a Lifetime of Yes: The Love Story I Didn’t See Coming
One year ago today, I stood on a mountain in Hawaiʻi with the wind in my face and the Pacific unrolling itself in that impossible blue. It was the kind of view that makes your chest go quiet—the kind that feels like an answer without words. I had come there alone. I was traveling alone.…
