Rendered No Longer Alive
<p>After a few weeks of posting silence, DK back — riding in a self-driving car that somehow already knows his taste in music, which is either impressive or creepy, and possibly both. In this episode: the push-pull of creating content in a system that benefits people you didn't vote for, why small acts of random goodness still matter anyway, the Old Dominion ROTC cadets who "rendered a shooter no longer alive," and what collective energy shifts actually look like when they're real. Also: why we're all peasants, and why that's not as hopeless as it sounds.</p><p><br></p>

Don't Take the Bait: A Few Words for Trans Day of Visibility
<p>It's Transgender Day of Visibility, so here are some unscripted, unpolished thoughts on being a "passing" trans person who benefits from male privilege — and why that makes visibility feel important right now. Plus: the division game, why trans people are perennial easy targets, the up-down vs. left-right thing, and why "trans rights are human rights" isn't just a slogan. Also featuring: brown eyes as a metaphor. No notes.</p><p><br></p>

You’re Not Failing — This Is a Time of Transition
<p>January can be a heavy month — and this year feels heavier than usual. Not just personally, but collectively. A lot of people are sensing that something big is shifting, even if no one can quite name what comes next.</p><p>In this episode of Rainbows in the Dark, I talk about what it’s like to live inside a major transitional time in history — when old systems stop working, the new ones aren’t fully formed yet, and people quietly start blaming themselves for feeling lost or exhausted.</p><p>If you’ve been feeling confused, disillusioned, anxious, or like the old rules don’t apply anymore, this episode is a reminder that you’re not failing — you’re responding appropriately to a world that’s changing faster than our nervous systems were designed to handle.</p><p>This is a gentle reframe, a little nervous-system grounding, and an invitation to replace fear with curiosity — without bypassing what’s real.</p><p>Pause. Breathe. You’re not broken.<br />Keep on keeping on — and keep shining in the dark. 🌈✨</p><p></p>
