Depravity

    

Depravity 

To the world, I am Debelah Thompson: a devoted criminal justice student, a quiet deli worker, and the grieving older sister of Tamika — one of the “Yorktown Four” who vanished after a weekend sleepover. When the cameras roll, I cry on cue. The public adores their tragic little survivor.But the truth is far more delicious. Tamika and her friends haven’t left the house. They’re locked in a soundproof room directly above the detectives searching for them.I never studied law to uphold it. I studied it to break it flawlessly. From slipping antifreeze into the coffee of suspicious detectives to playing the perfect, pious “First Lady” to a beloved local pastor, I am building an empire of absolute control.I am mastering my craft, one body at a time. They think a boogeyman stole the Yorktown Four.They don’t realize the boogeyman is the one holding the microphone.

Make Peace With Life Shortcast #028 — Are You in Karaoke Shape? 🎤

We get in shape for exercise, hiking, vacations, weddings, and even swimsuit season—but have you ever asked yourself the really important question: Are you in Karaoke Shape? In Shortcast #028 of Make Peace With Life, we discover that karaoke can be a lot more physical than it looks. Singing takes breath control, movement, energy, and more stamina than you might expect. And just like anything else, a little practice can make a huge difference. Sing in the car. Sing in the shower. Sing around the house. Use your voice! Find songs that fit your range, learn the lyrics, and get comfortable hearing yourself sing. But getting into Karaoke Shape isn't only physical—there's a metaphysical side, too. Music connects us with the energy of a room and the people around us. When you grab that microphone, something changes: you become the performer. The microphone can become a portal that lets you step outside your comfort zone, forget about being perfect, and simply have fun. Sure, standing in front of a room can be scary—but that fear can also be exhilarating. Feel the energy. Read the room. Pick your song. Grab the microphone. And remember: nobody expects perfection. So warm up those vocal cords, build your stamina, practice your favorite songs, and get yourself into Karaoke Shape! Keep Making Peace With Life There's a lot more to Make Peace With Life than one Shortcast. Subscribe to The Make Peace With Life Podcast for our full-length Podcasts, Shortcasts, and Shorties filled with stories, experiences, humor, positive energy, and different ways of looking at this crazy thing called life.

Free Shipping, Good Vibes & Looking Cool: The Make Peace With Life Shirt Movement

Let’s be honest…

There are few things in life more disappointing than finding the perfect shirt online, adding it to your cart, emotionally committing to it, and then suddenly getting attacked by shipping costs at checkout like:

“Surprise! That’ll be another $12.95 for the privilege of fabric transportation.”

Not anymore.

The Make Peace With Life shirts now come with FREE SHIPPING, because we believe getting something that spreads positivity, purpose, and good energy throughout the universe shouldn’t also require taking out a small loan to cover delivery fees.

That’s right.
You now get to pay less… for a shirt that actually gives you more.

More comfort.
More positivity.
More connection.
More style.
More energetic awesomeness.

And honestly?
That feels like a pretty solid life decision.

But these shirts are more than just soft fabric and cool designs. They’re part of something bigger. Every time someone wears a Make Peace With Life shirt, they’re putting a message into the world that people genuinely need right now. In a world where stress, negativity, division, and doom-scrolling seem to compete for Olympic gold medals every single day, a simple positive message can actually shift someone’s energy. You never know who might see your shirt while standing in line for coffee, walking through the grocery store, or surviving another painfully awkward family gathering. One person reads “Make Peace With Life” and suddenly pauses for a moment. Maybe they smile. Maybe they breathe easier. Maybe they realize they’ve been way too hard on themselves lately. That’s real energy. That’s impact.

Because positivity spreads.

Energy spreads.

And yes… apparently cool shirts spread too.

There’s something powerful about wearing a message that reminds people life doesn’t have to be perfect to still be meaningful. These shirts quietly say:

“Hey… maybe we can all chill out a little, breathe deeper, and stop acting like every inconvenience is a full-scale spiritual emergency.”

And honestly, the world could use more of that.

Plus, let’s not ignore an important scientific fact:
These shirts also make you look cool.

Not just “nice shirt” cool.
We’re talking:

• grounded-but-fun cool
• peaceful-with-good-energy cool
• probably-gives-great-life-advice cool
• somehow-both-spiritual-and-hilarious cool

That kind of cool.

And the best part is these shirts are for everyone.

It doesn’t matter:

• who you are
• what you believe
• what music you listen to
• whether you meditate daily or just aggressively overthink in silence
• whether you hike mountains or simply climb out of bed after hitting snooze four times

The Make Peace With Life message belongs to all of us.

Because peace is universal.
Growth is universal.
Human struggle is universal.
And wanting a comfortable shirt with free shipping is definitely universal.

At the end of the day, this movement has always been about more than clothing. It’s about connection, positivity, humor, perspective, and reminding people that even in the middle of life’s chaos, there’s still room for peace, laughter, kindness, and growth. Every shirt shared in the world becomes another small ripple of good energy moving outward into the collective human experience.

So yes…
You’re getting free shipping.

But you’re also helping spread a message the world desperately needs.

And honestly?
That’s a pretty good deal.

Make Peace With Life

What if the meaning of life isn’t something you find…
but something you learn to make peace with?

In Making Peace With Life, Dr. Rob Alex takes you on a deeply human, refreshingly honest, and surprisingly humorous journey through the chaos, beauty, heartbreak, energy, and wonder of being alive.

This isn’t a book about chasing perfection.
It’s about embracing the full spectrum — the ups, the downs, the middle ground, the transitions, the questions, the endings, and the beginnings.

Inside these pages you’ll explore:

• Why there is no real “finish line” in life — and why that’s good news
• How life’s hardest moments often become your greatest teachers
• The metaphysical energy that connects you to every other life on the planet
• Why your life is both a tiny drop… and an entire universe
• How music, memories, impact, and love glue everything together
• Why asking better questions may matter more than finding answers
• How to stop defining yourself by age, status, or comparison
• And why your life has unlimited value — even when you forget it does

Blending psychology, personal development, metaphysical insight, and everyday humor, Dr. Rob Alex writes like the friend who hands you cosmic wisdom and a high-five at the same time.

This book will not give you all the answers.
It will give you something far more powerful:

Permission to breathe.
Permission to question.
Permission to adjust.
Permission to live fully.

And most importantly —
Permission to make peace with life exactly as it is… while still growing into what it can become.

If you’re ready to stop racing and start living —
This book is for you.

Necromancers Don't Read Toe Tags

A Supernatural Dark Comedy by Thomas L. Vaultonburg

In Rookford, Illinois, the dead aren't the only ones keeping secrets. Thomas L. Vaultonburg's Necromancers Don't Read Toe Tags is a darkly comic supernatural novel combining occult mystery, institutional corruption, social satire, and the peculiar absurdities of life in the American Midwest. Kitten Killswitch arrives from Chicago's industrial music scene with a past she'd rather forget. At The Collective, Juniper Michaels turns charitable work into public sainthood, while cultural director Nancy McConaughey discovers that protecting an arts community can mean protecting the very people who threaten it. As reputations are manufactured and uncomfortable truths disappear, Elias Mort and Janelle Montclair pursue unfinished accounts through a city where influence reaches far beyond the gallery walls. Belial feeds on disorder, the dead resist convenient explanations, and justice comes with consequences nobody particularly wants to face. Funny, unsettling, irreverent, and occasionally tender, Necromancers Don't Read Toe Tags explores what happens when a community becomes more concerned with appearing virtuous than actually doing good. Newly revised for 2026, the novel has been polished and reintroduced for a new generation of readers. About the Author: Thomas L. Vaultonburg is a Rockford, Illinois-based poet, novelist, and independent publisher. He founded Zombie Logic Press, edits Zombie Logic Review, and co-founded Wolf Twin Books. His writing encompasses supernatural fiction, poetry, haiku, literary criticism, and Midwestern cultural history. Learn more about the author and his work at Zombie Logic Press.
