My name is Alex, I'm from central PA but spend a lot of time in Ithaca, NY where I attend university. It's really hard to describe what brings me joy because I love music, but it's pretty much war and I approach it as a challenge. Skateboarding honestly brings me joy with no strings attached. I think that together, all of us collectively running out of energy is what makes us most vulnerable individually and as members of a community. We can't legitimately re-energize; the feelings that are gone are gone, so we can't have what we used to. I see that the people around me and I need some new life.
