  • Formline-style illustration of Coyote the Trickster in the black, red, and white palette of Northwest Coast Indigenous art. The coyote is shown mid-stride with an arched back and a curled tail, its body built from interlocking ovoid and U-shaped forms, stylized joint markings, and small embedded faces. Its head turns back toward the viewer with a toothy grin, a large stylized eye, and a pointed ear.

    Outjerked by the Trickster

    I've been satirized by circlejerk.blog, and I reflect on the history of online circlejerking, Indigenous trickster traditions like Coyote and Chi-Jean, and the concept of survivance. A call for more humour and satire in online spaces, and how trickster storytelling can build empathy through shared laughter.

  • Vintage-toned photo of a young woman in profile with clown-style face paint, a red circle on her cheek and a painted winking eye. Her dark hair blowing sideways in the wind. She wears a light gingham sleeveless top and stands before a plaza fountain, with a blurred figure sitting in the background.

    CLOWN BURNOUT

    Clown white doesn't come off in one pass. A personal story about how I can never take myself seriously no matter how hard I try. Notes on the history whiteface and Auguste, the clown egg registry, the Indigenous medicine of laughter, the tyranny of irony, and what it costs to never learn how to come down.

  • The Fool tarot card from the Rider-Waite deck, numbered 0. A young figure in an ornate, flower-patterned tunic stands at the edge of a rocky cliff, face tilted upward toward a bright sun in the upper right corner. They carry a white rose in one outstretched hand and a wooden staff over their shoulder with a small sack tied to the end. A white dog leaps up at their heels. The background is a flat yellow sky above snow-capped mountains. The card is set against a blurred, blue-green forest background. The title 'THE FOOL.' appears in a banner at the bottom.

    The Fool's Autopsy

    A review of the prank I pulled yesterday, in addition to serious discourse about being silly, including thoughts on the role and importance of satire and literacy. I also share a detailed technical breakdown of the scripts that I added to the prank as well.
