The Answer is Blowin’ in the Wind
June 14th, 2024 It’s both alarming and comforting that the way we act on the internet isn’t anything new, if you look into the history of humanity at all. I watched the epic Bob Dylan documentary No Direction Home from 2005 on PBS this afternoon.

Summer ’95

April 4th, 2024 I haven’t been let out in public to talk about writing and art and music and The Bachelor since November (where does the time go?) but that’s all about to change.
