I don’t for a second think someone out there supporting the Trump administration will look at this and understand. Their reasoning skills are clouded and misguided. Most of them have no clue about the hardships that are ahead. This is for the reasonable folks out there asking, “What does this mean for me?” The outlook…

Let me be blunt: when you vote for politicians who call us “degenerates” or promise to “protect traditional values,” you are not just casting a ballot—you are signing off on a blueprint for our erasure.

Dear Future Family, Today is March 1, 2025. When I was a boy, my grandmother would say March came in like a lion or a lamb. Her voice was warm, steady, the kind that made you believe whatever she said. I’d sit by her closely, listening to the wind howl outside, never imagining I’d one…

I know I drive some of you crazy with my constant barrage of queer content. Trust me, I get it. But here’s the thing—you have to understand that my posts aren’t really for you. And I’m certainly not trying to change the minds of the far-right extremists who have already decided to rationalize their hatred.…

I often think of Anne Frank. Her words, her story, her unwavering hope in the face of unimaginable fear have haunted and inspired me for as long as I can remember. But it wasn’t until I visited the Secret Annex in Amsterdam that I truly felt the weight of her presence. Walking through those small,…

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night, unable to move, only to see a dark, shadowy figure lurking in the corner of your room? If so, you’re not alone. Over the years, I’ve delved deep into the enigmatic world of shadow people, and my latest book, Glow, explores the eerie intersection…

As a survivor of the infamous Screaming House haunting, I approached Steven Soderbergh’s “Presence” with both anticipation and skepticism. After watching it tonight, I must say it might not resonate with everyone — it does have its imperfections. However, it stands out as one of the most authentic portrayals of a haunting I’ve experienced in…
