Essays and dispatches on conscience, democracy, and the work of staying human.

Ancient stories that feel uncomfortably modern. If you’ve ever looked around and thought, “Didn’t we already try this, and didn’t it end badly?”, you’re in the right place. Here we exhume buried truths, roast tyrants, and remember that wisdom didn’t start with social media. Tragedy has a lot to teach us. Sometimes it even has punchlines.

A meeting place for those who refuse false choices. Here, spirituality and reason are not rivals but partners. These reflections explore how faith can deepen thought, how reason can steady belief, and how human beings can live more whole and humane lives in fractured times.

Brief, immediate reflections for those immersed in the news and the noise. Not more information, but orientation. A steady flame to help you stay awake, grounded, and human without burning out.
