Vast Terminating Silence with Winslow Dumaine

"What if you fell in love with that?" Winslow Dumaine asks about all the feelings there are to feel other than happiness. The comedian, illustrator, writer, podcaster, and game and merch designer (what can't he do?!) is an artist of a type that's somewhat rare for This Is Your Afterlife: someone who takes death and darkness as their explicit subject matter.

Content warning: turning pain into art, breakups, long crushes, tarot, metal, ADHD Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria.
