As a 42-year-old dude from the Valley, I cannot emphasize the significance of seeing The Format release their latest album at Crescent Ballroom during the middle of the afternoon

Switching the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack to Tool for the drive home after I drop the kids off at school must be what sneaking a cigarette in the garage feels like

Very proud and excited to share a new story in X-R-A-Y today

This piece started out as a riff about Bono going into the crowd at Live Aid and ended up as a meditation on the asymmetrical love between parents and children

thanks to @joshuahebburn.bsky.social for the keen and perceptive edits!

I’m honestly surprised some of you would rather watch the college football national championship instead of the Phoenix Suns’ 43rd game.

My goodness, this book is something else. An entire education on writing in 200 pages.

As a Phoenix Suns fan, I have endless, unrelenting compassion and sympathy for Buffalo Bills fans
