Wrote this short-but-punchy, little essay on our collective free fall: “Benevolent Cowards: On Looking Away and Turning Back”.
Because cowardice is in fashion and we better get curious about how we find courage.

Just fielded a heartbreaking apology from someone who at the time said I was being SO DRAMATIC calling his 1st term eugenics. But now in his 2nd, their ppl are dying too. Fam, in the gorgeous words of @margaret.bsky.social "I Hope We All Make It" docs.google.com/document/d/1...
Found in a Little Free Library in Chicago. Love to see it.

Another Dirtbag Hymn in the world. “The Blaze of Cultural Amnesia: On Delusion and Sacrifice” is a reflection on the complexities of choosing to forget. Content warning for this essay as it concerns war, self-immolation and violence.

“The dirtbag hymn I hear when I listen to this winter memory: nothing will teach you more about the necessity of being able to wait than the violent sting of impatience. Growth means being willing to see some harbors as a nest of salt. Confluence is vastly different than influence.” - Stevie Klaark

“A Nest of Salt: On Discomfort and Advantage” - new essay on Substack now.
A dirtbag hymn which serves as a reminder of an awkward and gentler kind of grit and grace.

“The Bear and the Mountain: On Memory and Origin”. This one has been swimming around in my body somewhere since 2022. The first essay for #DirtbagHymns.
Offering a reclamation of grit and grace through culture, world-building and economy.
