WHAT WE SAY

Late 2025 — Still refuse to stay within the lines.

Stop Dimming Your Light

For as long as I can remember my first independent thought, it hasn't changed... Why? Why can’t we roll in the grass, hugging our dog? Why can’t we smear ourselves with paint—our whole body, even our face? Why can’t we laugh at everything? Why can’t we run through puddles and get soaked to the bone? Why can’t we just be silly? Why can’t we wear whatever we want? What even is a "uniform"? Uniform for what exactly...? Why can’t we dance like there’s no tomorrow? Like no one is watching?

Whatever the interests of the people around us are—trying to box us into structured patterns that are convenient for them... I say: Be who you want to be. Be what makes you feel good. We have one short round in the playground of life; there’s no point wasting it on anything but what makes us truly happy.

Be the Chaos in Their Perfect Order. (A photo of me as a young boy, already refusing to do what everyone else was doing... No AI!)
