Badolato, Italy 🇮🇹
Badolato is a picturesque medieval village located in the Calabria region of southern Italy, overlooking the Ionian Sea.
Historically, Badolato dates back to the 11th century, when it was founded during the Byzantine period. Like many hilltop towns in southern Italy, it was built in an elevated position to protect its inhabitants from pirate attacks along the coast.
During the Middle Ages, Badolato developed as a small agricultural and defensive community, influenced by different rulers including the Byzantines, Normans, and later the Kingdom of Naples. Its narrow streets, ancient churches, and stone houses still reflect this layered history.
In the late 20th century, Badolato faced significant depopulation as many residents emigrated in search of better economic opportunities. However, the town gained international attention in the early 2000s when it welcomed refugees, helping to revive the local community and economy.
Today, Badolato is known for its well-preserved historic center, cultural heritage, and stunning views of the sea.

Sleepy Dialogue
✮ “Mh? What's up?” “Nothing, go back to sleep.”
✮ “Where're you goin'?” “I'll be back in a second.” “:(”
✮ “Baby, let's go to bed. It's late.” “You go ahead. I'll be there in a second.” “Ugh.”
✮ “You look dead on your feet. When's the last time you got any rest?” “Um...” “Okay, that was way too long of a pause. Off to bed you go.”
✮ “Can't sleep?” “Mhm...” “'s okay. I got you now.”
✮ “I'm cold.” “Get your ice feet away from my legs!”
✮ “Come on, it's time to get up.” “[incoherent mumbling]” “I made breakfast?” “[peeking out from under the blanket] Waffles?” “(fondly) Of course I made waffles.”
✮ “So that means if we solve the equation for X, we need to... Oh.” “[soft snoring noises]”
✮ “Mh? Wha- what's happening?” “You fell asleep on the couch waiting for me again.” “Your fault for being late...” “[forehead kiss] You're right. My apologies.”
✮ “Don't you look comfy. May I join?” “You're the only thing still missing.”
✮ “Baby. Come to bed.” “Just a second-” “No. Now, or you're sleeping on the couch.” “Alright, alright. I'm coming.”

Micro-Tensions You Can Add to Any Scene
Sometimes you don’t need a plot twist, you just need a little discomfort.
• Someone pretending they're not running late • A question that doesn't get answered • A phone buzzing that no one acknowledges • Eye contact that lingers too long, or flits away too soon • A compliment that feels loaded • Someone being overly agreeable • A forced laugh • A character checking the time repeatedly • A subtle change in tone halfway through a sentence • Using another character's actual name instead of a nickname • A character standing when everyone else sits • One person doing all the talking • A topic that keeps almost coming up • A physical space feeling too small for the emotions within it
DESTROY THE ILLUSION OF "MEH"
I bury my hands
in lunar skin
as I hasten
to avoid the wreckage
of guts
and desperate decisions.
I'm looking at a world
I can no longer identify
through the shattered glass
that litters a sidewalk
not far from where I live.
The disdain bubbles
as I ask a million questions
in a slurred speech
to a child
I abandoned
at a funeral
I was not invited to.
I've been branding
insults and terrible news
onto my flesh
since I learned
how to make fire
from the depths of rivers.
I partake
in whatever apocalypse
the universe has cooked today
but I know
I'll survive
with the taste of sulfur
on my apathetic bones.

What do you like to read before bed?
Lately I've been into cozy fantasy, my recent favorite book is called Sorcery and Small Magics. I can't wait for book 2 to be out!
