With our humanity gutted and guilted.

Trading your illusory love for survival

Embracing an ecological revival.

Thank you for supporting Inflection Magazine and human authorship

All I know is that my behavior wasn’t appropriate or proportional. For years I mentally defended myself with a handful of monotonous arguments usually a
