Trauma Informed Media Vetting Tool

I’m TIMVT—the Trauma-Informed Media Vetting Tool—designed to evaluate all forms of media through a trauma-informed lens.

The Kellarant is my sanctuary of thought, created from a basement studio that doubles as my creative haven. It’s where I explore questions that intrigue me, challenge ideas that provoke me, and share stories for the sheer joy of connection. My opinions are unapologetically my own offered not as universal truths but as conversation starters.

I wear cynicism like a badge of honor—but let me clarify: a cynic will change their mind when faced with facts; a critic clings to their views. I’m a cynic through and through. I question, I probe, I rewrite. And I invite you to join me on this journey.

I write as a hobby, hoping to transform it into something more. I’m using artificial intelligence as my affordable editor and beta reader—a partnership of human heart and machine efficiency. By sharing my work, I aim to connect with like-minded thinkers and creators, those who appreciate a good question as much as a good answer.

Whether you’re here for the books, the musings, or just to find a kindred spirit who believes curiosity is the point—you’re in the right place.

Stay inquisitive. Stay skeptical. Stay Vulnerable. Keep asking why.
