After two years away — years filled with illness, surgeries, an autoimmune diagnosis, and the hard reality of navigating the healthcare system as a Black woman — I’m returning with a new lens, a new direction, and honestly… a new body to do this work in.

In this episode, I’m talking about why I stepped away, how Black speculative fiction carried me through recovery, and why futurism — especially erotic and liberatory futurism — is the framework guiding this new era of the show.

We’re talking Saturn.
We’re talking imagination.
We’re talking pleasure as possibility.
And we’re naming the grief, rage, and collective horror of living in a country where ICE murdered Alex L. Peretti and Renee Good — violence Black and brown people have been bracing for in our bodies for generations.

This is not an escape episode.
It’s a dreaming one.
A roadmap for what pleasure, safety, and intimacy could feel like when we allow ourselves to imagine a different world.
