Wow. This is so good. Thank you! Might hit you up with a few Memphis-specific questions as I’m going along if that’s ok

Working on a thing about Penny Hardaway. What do you remember about him?

Was wondering which pen to bring to my custody battle. Thank you

Posting a good vid on TikTok right feels like debuting a new song as the Titanic sunk.

Best nicknames in the NBAs Eastern Conference

Them: “College basketball is better.”

College basketball:

*reads a 2024 recap that’s clearly a joke*

*reads a 2024 recap that’s real and vulnerable*
Me: Ok I did not want to know all that

Big year in Hollywood for robes (Denzel in Gladiator and the whole cast of Conclave)

Finally saw Civil War [2024], just as Alex Garland intended it: on a plane, with tinny headphones, responding to every plot point by saying aloud, “Well that can’t be good”

Most popular/viral things on the internet aren’t original or even particularly well done. They’re just posted confidently. And that’s a lesson I have to learn over and over.

Starting a tech company is all about finding a tiny sliver of people’s lives that are their own and monetizing it. “Our new app allows you to share a toothbrush with other people in your area. Why pay full price for a brush when you only use it a few minutes a day?“

Sometimes it feels like, because I don’t have enough time to do everything, I end up doing nothing.

Hahaha I can 100% see how she looks like a penguin and how a random domesticated penguin would get a double take 🤣🤣

I feel this same way when someone engages with my stand up album as art. It’s silly because they’re just jokes, but it’s so gratifying to have someone move past, “That’s funny” and into analyzing themes, through lines, set construction and performance.

Don’t talk to me until I’ve had my bombing on numerous social media platforms

My favorite part of being a writer are the random times when words suddenly cease to make sense and I can’t construct a simple sentence

White liberals buy things because wirecutter told them to. White conservatives buy things because a man with leathery skin on YouTube told them to

"wirecutter said it was the best one" - white liberal christmas proverb

So sorry this happened. Always got bad vibes from that guy

I’m gonna tell you right now: if I saw mommy kissing Santa Claus, that dude is DONE FOR.
