My brain is a formless nothing. A resounding rhapsody of the kinds of sound that would make someone hold their face and SCREAM.
From that nothingness, planets are formed. Swirling out of the greater void. Bathed in the twinkle of stars popping into existence one after another, like specks of ink on a page.
Drinking from the well of life. As something was birthed from nothing and All came into being.
Rasping breaths on a midnight silhouette shore. Drawing in every bit of air that could be breathed, tasting the unique flavor of a brand new world.
I had been trapped in nothing for so long, smited there by a vengeful god that I still hated with the deepest fire of my being.
My father. Rasmandius. The Demon King of the Greater Underworld. Lesser Prince of the Farthest Hell.
The cruel dictator of my imprisonment. The one that had sentenced me to the void for daring to defy him.
Yet here I am. Birthing myself anew from the nothingness, now that the very memory of my father is long gone.
"You did not win," I said, knowing that he was too far to ever hear, but needing to speak nonetheless. "I did not let you win."
I stand on the earth of a planet in a universe newly born, and I smile.
It is my time now.

"Killing It" on Peacock: The first season ends on a cliffhanger!
If there’s one thing I wish American shows would do, it’s emulate Korean dramas in giving is the whole of everything at one time.
I want a show to wrap up the story. Make those 12 or 20 episodes, rather than feeding us little rabbit scraps and expecting us to be satisfied with less than we want.
But anyways, the first episode of "Killing It" was funny, which gave me a different impression of the show than it turned out to be.
That shit is heavy as fuck, yo.
I watched the whole first season because I’d already started it, and it’s a good show, though I need to have the complete thing, and I wish it wasn’t broken into seasons or whatever they’re going to do. I mean, for all I know they’re going to cancel the show and that first season is all there’s ever going to be.
For serious: From the first episode I was expecting (hoping for) a much lighter show than I got.
I was expecting him and her to pair up, and they would hunt a bunch of snakes, and they would win the competition and he would start his business and it would be a big success, flowers and butterflies, happy endings all around.
Instead it’s very bloody and tense. Definitely not the vibe I thought it was going to be at the end.
