Tongue of Fire

Last week, I wrote about The Raven and the feeling of sinking into sorrow. This week, Thunderbolts offered a counterpoint. The newest Marvel film doesn’t show heroes at their best—it shows them broken, grieving, still healing. And it reminds us that showing up anyway is powerful. In a time when mental wellness support is being stripped away, we need stories that say: you still matter. Even in the dark, you’re not alone.
