Hopping on Bluesky for the first time in months to publicly wonder if, after the Home Run Derby, the wider baseball world now knows what a "big dumper" is.

Seattle! Come to the Third Place Books in Ravenna for what I'm sure will be an enlightening conversation (partly) about how weird it is to be an elder millennial!

I would recommend the Chihuahua Café but it is closing! But definitely go to the vegan restaurant Henderson's and try the mushroom scallops!

They did play one package at the beginning of the month on Raw. And a "community outreach" thing with Kofi. So about as much as they do usually.

Dating back to 2018, Dusty and I have teamed up on canonical split albums, double albums, and songs by great duos in music. Here is the latest in that unofficial series.

Gonna need white podcasters to get their shit together and start pronouncing Tramell Tillman’s name correctly. Before I ever even heard it said out loud I knew it was truh-MELL and not TRAM-uhl and that’s just basic two Americas, we have to know about you but you don’t have to know about us stuff.

Throwaway Style: On the Gits and What It Means to Puke the Blues

A little (using the word "little" a little generously, since it clocked in at 2500 words) retrospective piece I wrote on the criminally overlooked Seattle rock band the Gits.

"Dissociating in the Sheridanverse" sounds like a great title for a series of culture essays tinged with memoir.

Don't steal it.
