Fordy and the Bandit Kitties. AI-Generated.
Once upon a time, there was a friendly little vehicle named Fordy. We meet Fordy on a very sleepy road, beneath a sky full of twinkly stars that seemed to whisper goodnight to anyone who passed beneath them. The moon hung low and round, lighting the road just enough to make everything feel safe and calm.

The Last Day of 2025. Content Warning.
2025 was an objectively hard year for me. I would be lying if I said that I wasn't extremely thrilled to be done with whatever this last year has been! It is fitting that I want to use Wednesdays to write wacky things... and the end of 2025 is on a Wednesday - as it has been one wacky year!

Emotional Boundaries With Parents When Guilt Runs Your Life
Understanding Emotional Boundaries With Parents in a Guilt-Driven Dynamic Emotional boundaries with parents become critically important when guilt quietly controls decisions, emotions, and self-worth. Many Gen Z adults grow up in families where love is intertwined with obligation, making it difficult to separate care from control. In these kinds of places, guilt isn't often said out loud. It can be suggested through silence, stories of sacrifice, or emotional detachment. This approach leads to a habit of putting personal needs last.
