Raphael Jose Martinez is a punk rock Swiss Army knife of an artist, a fan of the show, and an open book. A real "(sensitive) dudes rock!" episode we got right here.

Content warning: difficult-to-express thoughts around disability and deafblindness that we awkwardly but I think productively sort through, matter-of-fact death 'tudes, playing Misfits at the funeral, me ripping off the Hirokazu Koreeda film After Life, horticulture, true friendship.
