All right, I’m back with a new article, and today I want to talk about Paper Republic. I finally got my Paper Republic journal, and I want to talk about it because why not? This is my blog. I’m allowed to talk about whatever the fuck I want to talk about. Okay, so basically, on…
I Don’t Believe in Freedom of Speech Anymore.
I don’t think I believe in freedom of speech anymore. There. I said it. I can already imagine somebody reading that and immediately preparing the lecture. “But freedom of speech means…” Yeah, okay. I know what it means. You don’t have to tell me twice. That isn’t really what I’m talking about anymore. What bothers…
European Road Trip at 27: What I Learned About Travel, Family, and Independence
Another update from my life that nobody really asked for. But, you know, your girl is constantly absent. She tries to write. She tries to do so many things. Luckily, after my hospital stay, which lasted, like, nine days and was a nightmare, things turned out pretty good. Or at least I thought they would…
Nine Days at the Hospital: Daily IVs, Rude Nurses, and Trying to Get My Life Back
Okay, um, here’s an update from my life. I went to the hospital. I was at the hospital. I was actually discharged like 30 hours ago, I guess. But yeah, I was at the hospital for about nine days. So here’s what happened. I caught a cold. I thought that everything would be fine. My…
One Month Since Krakow
Last month, I went to Kraków for my birthday, and honestly, I did not expect to miss it this much. This year, I turned 27, and for my birthday, my parents decided to gift me the possibility of going to a European capital. I wasn’t sure exactly where I wanted to go. Actually, no, that’s…
I’m a Creator, and I’m Not Afraid of AI Stealing My Work
This is so controversial that you’re probably going to want to cancel me, but hear me out. So, I just read an article where, allegedly, Cate Blanchett, along with someone whose name I don’t even remember anymore, created some sort of organization to protect creative works from AI and whatnot. I don’t really remember all…
Rest in Peace, Marjane Satrapi.
Not even an hour ago, I learned something heartbreaking. This article might feel very tied to current events, but everyone knows about the war in Iran unless they have chosen to completely tune out the news. Unfortunately, I also learned that Marjane Satrapi has died at the age of 56. I don’t know if everyone…
A Choice I Still Remember
In today’s blog post, I want to talk about something I still think about years later. Some time ago, I had to make a choice. I’m not going to give the full details because I still don’t want to be that specific, even now. But years ago, I had to make a choice, and I…
I Left a Job Interview Because Something Felt Wrong
I really needed that job. That is probably the first thing I need to say, because I think it changes the way people read a story like this. When you need work, you do not walk away lightly. You do not leave just because something is a little awkward or a little imperfect. You try…
Why Pretending It’s 2016 Isn’t as Easy as People Think
Over the past few years, there’s been this growing trend online—especially on Instagram—where people pretend it’s the year 2014, 2015, or 2016 again. It really started picking up around 2024, and somehow it’s still going strong even now, in 2026. People recreate old Tumblr aesthetics, post grainy photos, wear vintage clothes, and talk about how…
