I write essays and fiction about memory, control, and reclaiming your voice. Fairy tales fractured and truths untangled. New work on Substack twice a week.

Totally agree. It mimics care with no cost, patience without presence. But I’ve seen people, disabled, neurodivergent, anyone often talked over, use it to explore, vent, be heard. It wasn’t built for us, but we’re bending it. Not a fix, but maybe a fracture worth watching.
