Well, there’s been a lot that’s happened to me this past week. A flood in the bathroom led to a terribly flooded closet, and I had to throw out so much stuff. You know the kind of stuff I’m talking about—things you haven’t seen in years, things you almost forgot…

A small town in northern Alberta, cut off from the rest of the world. Lost somewhere among the thick brush and endless forests of an untamed wilderness, there is nothing left but the voices of the past. I’ve travelled in search of this hellish place a realm where nothing seems…

What starts as a reflection on the kids going back to school turns into a dive through creativity, unfinished games, eerie Appalachian trails, old-school terminals, AI slop, and the uncomfortable truth that time moves faster than we think.

A father watches his children grow up, buys a bread maker, dreams about Thanksgiving, works a job he hates, and somehow ends up designing a zombie survival game set along a lonely hiking trail. A reflection on family, aging, creativity, fear, the wilderness, and why none of us are nearly…
