Two minutes and eleven seconds of escape from a dangerous, stressful world to a place of comfort and abstraction.

Every now and then my computer decides to check and see if I've finally become the kind of guy that wants to see my files as icons instead of a list.

Fuck character limits. This is bullshit.

Although, I don't have hard evidence, I think it's a pretty safe assumption that number is even higher in the district where we live and that you represent.

Shut. Everything. Down.

The cover photo is from the actual recording session. It was quite a production. Clocks in under 17 minutes if you care to give it a spin.

In a few months, this EP James Hepler and I did together will be old enough to drink. I listened to it again today for the first time in a long time and was surprised at how much I still like it.

Proud of Minnesota today. ✊

Illegibly written calendar entry.

No new pictures. Where are you at mentally?

The problem is that if you use that money to fund a social safety net, it will be harder for them coerce their workers into working for starvation wages. It's not the money, it's the power.

Bad ideas are remarkably durable.

I think you've made the same mistake I did. We didn't marry rich.

In an era of people doing the dumbest fucking shit ever with technology, this thing I just read about Reflect Orbital is right on up there.

In Durham, North Carolina, neighbors are protecting neighbors from ICE: ‘We care for each other’ Community members have stepped up with carpools, food deliveries, school patrols and policy advocacy

Love ya, Durham

There are things in my fridge that have been there longer than this kitten has been alive, and yet she already has concrete ideas about when I'm supposed to go to bed.

I fucking hate cancer.
