They Told You to Forget What You Saw
“The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.” — George Orwell I keep returning to that line because it refuses to age. It doesn’t belong to a year, or a regime, or a single country. It belongs to a pattern. A rhythm. A recipe that only ever changes its costumes. When Orwell wrote it, it wasn’t prophecy so much as diagnosis—a clinical description of what happens when power stops bothering with persuasion and star

Embers in the Glass
A record about staying I didn’t make this album because I wanted to. I made it because something in me was breaking faster than I could explain it, and the only way I know how to keep myself here when that happens is to build something honest enough to hold the weight. Embers in the Glass is not a diary. It’s not a highlight reel. It’s not a redemption arc. It’s what came out of me while my nervous system was on fire, while love collapsed into questions, while systems I was s

Autistic People Need Clarity in Dating
Don't want to read the wall of text? Click here for a short version that will take just one minute to read. I used to think “clarity” was just… a preference. Like: some people like pineapple on pizza, some people don’t. Some people like texting, some people hate it.Some people like labels, some people think labels are cringe. And sure—sometimes clarity is just a style. But for a lot of autistic people (hi), clarity is not a style. It’s not a cute personality quirk. It’s not “

Beyond Shadow Work: Ethicism and Moral Healing
By Morgan Miller Introduction Shadow work, as popularized through Carl Jung, encourages individuals to confront the hidden parts of themselves — the fears, insecurities, resentments, and unacknowledged motives that shape our behavior. At its best, it fosters personal insight and growth. It can help someone notice the difference between what is happening now and what a past wound is trying to make them believe is happening. It can interrupt cycles of defensiveness and project

AI, Art, and the Problem With Wanting a Simple Villain
AI didn’t make me an artist. I was already an artist from childhood. It helped me stay alive long enough to remain one. I need to say something about AI and art, and I need to say it in a way that doesn’t pretend this is simple. Because it isn’t. And because I’m tired—so tired—of watching people treat every complex situation like it’s a courtroom drama with a clear-cut monster, a clear-cut hero, and a clean little ending where everyone claps and justice magically happens in

Christmas in a Broken World
I keep saying I’m done with Christmas. And then December hits, and my brain does the same thing it always does:it remembers the lights. Not the ads, not the chaos, not the “perfect family” photos with matching pajamas and a mortgage. The lights . The quiet glow in a dark room. The way a single candle still feels like defiance when everything else is burning. Christmas in a Broken World is my attempt to make music for that feeling—for the people who still love the season, bu

On Watching the Tender Parts Die
I can feel it dying in me. Not in the cinematic way people imagine when they hear a sentence like that. Not a single dramatic crack, not a clean “before and after,” not a tidy storyline where the pain arrives, does its speech, and exits stage left. It’s quieter. Meaner. It’s a slow dimming—like a lamp that used to fill the whole room with warmth, now flickering because the power keeps cutting out, and nobody wants to admit the wiring has been sabotaged. Used. Lied to. Abuse

The Final Circus — My New Album
🎪 About Madness, Survival, and Refusing to Go Numb There’s a question that’s been haunting me for years: If the things that nearly killed you also kept you alive… what do you do with that? The Final Circus is my attempt to answer that without lying to myself. It’s a dark-carnival cabaret concept album about surviving psychiatry, misdiagnosis, psych wards, shared delusions, social-media witch hunts, alcoholism, and the quiet kind of hope that still crawls out of the wreckage

The Silence That Follows
I need to share something difficult — not for advice, not for comfort, but because sometimes grief needs a shape outside the body, and if I don’t give it one it will keep living in my ribs like a trapped animal. For those who’ve known me a long time, you know who this is about without me saying it. The old story. The one that became a quiet landmark in the geography of my life. The relationship that ended and never really ended, because the ending didn’t come with an explanat
