This is an unlikely team. We are Emily Ridge, AlterEgo, and indefatigable.

Our collective identities span multiple cultures and experiences, and we bring our perspectives into our writing. All of us share a warmth toward humanity that is demonstrated with active, unflinching critique of harmful policy, and a dedication to honest assessment of the challenges we face as individuals and society.

Emily Ridge - For someone who loves to write, I'm terrifically bad at writing bios. I write, I make pottery, I make scathing commentary--mostly offline because I'm afraid of judgement.
AlterEgo - educator, social worker, activist, writer, avid chocolate consumer and kibitzing enthusiast
indefatigable - I'm a musician, artist, and web3 dev. Cofounder of PageDAO, tech editor at Vagobond Magazine.
