“Sure beats the alternative,” said James.

“What, to be mortal? Let me tell you boy, mortality is a weakness. You must protect yourself and your family from certain death by living far less of an adventurous life than you could if you were invincible. You can’t eat the wrong thing, you can’t love the wrong person, you can’t even drink to excess without dire consequences to your organs or decisions. And the worst of it all, you feed monsters like us in the end. Your only real purpose in life.”

“I have to get back to the kitchen…”

  • One With the Birds, One With the Beasts

    By Emmanuel Williams I am one with the birds I am one with the beasts I fly, I soar I hunt, I breed I run, I fuck, I flee I wait, I test I want to be the best I drink, I eat I hug every tree And through the great wind I can see…

  • Bringing Sports Reporting and Opinion to Stick Fist!

    By Emmanuel Williams For a good while this blog and my attempts to upload my thoughts, creative ideas, and opinions had mixed with bursts of reporting. Today I feel like making more arguments and pursuing current events that are relevant and ongoing sources of information to report on. I’m happy to report that I always…

    The Gaza War 2 Years Later

    By Emmanuel Williams I don’t think Trump is suddenly a hero now. You can’t just lead a stubborn horse to water and expect that when he’s done drinking, he won’t be so difficult. He will, he’ll just be a refreshed pain in the ass. Tomorrow is the anniversary of the Gaza War. 2 years ago…

    Dragon Means Guardian

    By Emmanuel Williams  You see, I was born in 1988. Which to the Chinese and the Japanese means that I am a Dragon. A natural leader, the luckiest of their zodiacs, every animal of their zodiacs combined in one… In the Western lore, the dragon is a malignant character, only meant to be slain so…

  • The White Angel Concern

    By Emmanuel Williams Today’s commute was breeding grounds for a personal essay. From the young couple who’s boyfriend couldn’t keep his hands from her lower body, to the strange double date I saw. All of whom took both of my trains into Denver today, forcing me to find distance from them but never completely succeeding.…

  • The True Beast

    By Emmanuel Williams The snow fell soft and thick. Boots found the powder softly and sound escaped no one as the four immortals prowled the white forest throbbing with thirst.  Spear, Reed, Crux, and Raven were the forest hunting party for the Brotherhood of Rogan, an obscure clan of vampires, outcast after a failed rebellion…

  • Samantha Crossbow: The Invincible Woman, PART 1

    By Emmanuel Williams I don’t get hurt. I don’t get wounded. I bleed, of course, but nobody gets that pleasure. Ever. In kindergarten I knew this kid who was going out with this boy. My very peers sporting hickies and smacking each other’s asses beneath the slide in the sandbox and ruining playtime for everyone. …

  • Defining Character: The Heroine

    By Emmanuel Williams The first of hopefully many, let’s begin our stream of consciousness experiment intended to bring about far more pantsing than plotting. Because plotting has begun to feel like writer’s block as the structure templates have become too numerous to control, or perhaps even trust. Let’s start with a well known, yet typically…

    Trump’s Immigration Policy is a Sickening American Business Move

    By Emmanuel Williams September 12, 2025 I received the news of 475 workers, “more than 300 of them South Korean” (Kim and Tong-hyung, 2025) American Immigrants returning to South Korea today after being detained and flown back from their jobs at a Hyundai Factory in Georgia with an unusual sense of mouth dropping betrayal. This…

  • How I’m Using Google Gemini (AI)

    By Emmanuel Williams Contextually speaking, I simply wanted to know where I could take the most reliable IQ test in the world and what it would cost. What happened during the chat is a microcosm of how I interact with my preferred AI source, Google Gemini.  I legitimately believe the resulting conversation is worth provoking…
