All aspects of my life feel transitory. So, I need somewhere to get my thoughts out, and maybe that'll help others in the process. This is my attempt to be less mysterious, to provide insight into my thought processes, a peek at my brilliantly chaotic mind. May you listen with an unconditional ear and empathetic soul.
Updated [06/29/2026]: Currently working on researching, I'd liked to interview individuals who feel lived most of their life in the United States or any Western society. This will provide a more qualitatively rich understanding of the experience captured within the survey. [coming soon...]
This recording touches on an experience I am constantly navigating as a "Worldmaking" scholar, as someone who wants to educated but instill ideologies that foster a more equitable and empathetic world.

Gratitude
This is something I do often, on my own, but I thought it was necessary to record this conversation with myself and I'm pretty much just expressing gratitude for my lived experience this far.
What are some things you are eternally grateful for?

Herzog
According to Wikipedia, the term "Herzog" is a German hereditary title held by one who rules a territorial duchy, exercises feudal authority over an estate called a duchy, or possesses a right by law or tradition to be referred to by the ducal title.
This conversation has nothing to do with the term, but for some reason, the Apple memos app saved this recording under this title...weird, right?
Anyways, I'm discussing how hate is an embodied reality within this country (the United States)...

Dream Consciousness

Lived Experiences (Part 1...Maybe?)
It's not that I don't want to be vulnerable, but I am constantly on the fence about whether it is necessary to tell my story. Especially now, when everyone has a story to tell. IDK but here's me thinking through that shit.

Valid Crashout
These are really for me, and if they resonate with you, then I'm glad they do!
I recorded this before the start of the spring quarter (so during spring break), and now that I'm thinking about it, I was justified in being anxious about everything! We're looking at stress, brainstorming an imitation theory (briefly), and my thoughts before I head to the American South for the summer.
