The Day Everything Changed
I missed the last bus on purpose. Not because I wanted to be stranded, but because I couldn’t face going home. That day had been one long unraveling—work mistakes, a call from my sister about our mother’s health, the kind of exhaustion that lives in your bones. The bus stop bench was cold, the sky bruised with storm clouds, and I just… stayed. Let the schedule pass. Let the world move on without me.

The Black Panther is bigger than one man
Author’s Note: Recent online speculation about the future of the Black Panther prompted a widespread debate over recasting, legacy, and respect for Chadwick Boseman’s portrayal. This essay expands on a prediction I shared publicly, arguing that the most faithful continuation of the character lies not in replacement, but in succession–specifically through introducing T’Challa’s son and heir. What follows is an exploration of why the Black Panther has always been a mantle shaped by legacy rather than a role defined by a single man.

John Cena's retirement
Happy New Years to all my readers! I know it's been a while. I do apologize and I want to start writing again. I promise I'll try my best, so here we go. It's been quite a while since John Cena's final match. Truthfully I'm still in denial that it's finally over. As a friendly reminder, like all kids around my age John Cena was one of my favorite wrestlers growing up. Batista was my absolute favorite but John was definitely up there. I had stopped watching wrestling once the PG era started, but deep down and as I'd gotten older I've always had an affinity for wrestling. But when John announced his retirement. I decided to follow a little more closely, as shown by my previous articles both simply thanking Cena and my 2024 prediction as to how it would go down and what I'd like to see from his retirement tour.
