I write lacrosse stuff for Inside Lacrosse & sometimes I write other stuff too. A lady from the Washington Post once called my work 'somewhat amusing.'

Can’t emphasize how much this is true. Your ability to generate attention is your most marketable skill as a writer, for better or worse. Especially right now. If you hate someone but keep sharing their articles, the people who employ them look at that and go “hey, they’re always in the convo”
if you hate the writer, do not share the writer's articles. people clicking on the articles is how the writer gets paid. "how do THEY still have a job in journalism, when so many talented people are being laid of?!" you, because of you. you are why.

Every day on Instagram there's some 12 year old lacrosse player casually dropping a move in an actual game that wouldn't have even crossed my mind as a possibility until like 2038.

Scenes from a marriage:
Me: Oh you think this is funny?
Jess: My 50yr old husband is yelling about a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game he couldn’t beat in the 80s. Yeah, it’s pretty fucking funny.
Me: I’m not yelling. But the bomb level is no laughing matter & it’s time we as a culture admit it!
