Grief Project

My Grief Project is a lot of things: part shrine/ancestor altar, part documentation of my experience learning to cope with compounded complex grief, and part resource for others.

I grew up with death. My dad is a musician, and unfortunately, musicians tend to live shorter lives, for a variety of reasons. Over and over again, I found myself losing the "safe adults" in my life, and had to reckon with the possibility of losing others- advanced breast cancer diagnoses, in particular, were a huge contributor to my living nightmare for a couple of years there. I thought I'd be desensitized to death, after all that, as I'd experienced both sudden and expected death over and over again. But all that exposure still couldn't prepare me for what I would face as an adult.

In between graduating high school and my class' five-year reunion, I became the only living member of my project group in AP Computer Science. My closest friend in that group died of brain cancer; the other two, suicide. Each of those funerals wrecked me. Then, in the first half of 2023, I lost both biological grandfathers, though I'd never met one of them, the "grandfather" who helped raise me, and my stepmom, seemingly all at once. As icing on the cake, I was working a job that made me want to kill myself as well. Oh, and they fired me 3 days after asking for PTO to go to my stepmom's funeral. Neat, right?

Naturally, I was kind of fucked up about all that. So, I went to therapy about it. Girl was too busy comparing me to other clients and praising me for intellectualizing my problems to actually help me, unfortunately, and unsurprisingly, I didn't actually process any of it.

Cut to 2025. My relationships are falling apart. I feel like a shell of a man. Everyone is comparing me to who I was a nebulous "two years ago". I feel broken. During an argument with my husband, it hits me: it's all this grief I never unpacked. So... I'm here to unpack it. Wish me luck!

HREL Project

My Healthy Relationships Project had one primary goal, to start: creating a resource for comparing needs and wants in a new or established relationship using relationship anarchy principles. I hated all the existing resources on this: smorgasbords and menus galore, as my husband put it so kindly, "make me feel like I'm ordering a rent-a-boyfriend". So I wanted to fix it! Using the skeleton of a better-known (and thankfully MIT-licensed) project, the KinkSheet, as well as a couple of those "menu" resources, I developed the Relationship Components project.

Of course, I'm gay and extra. How could I stop there? When I finished my first Relationship Components sheet, I thought: what good is this without several alternative versions and a wiki?

I'm still working on it, but I'm ridiculously excited to share this stuff when it's ready.
