September 17th, 2019 People are fucking magic. It feels weird to feel compelled to make a post about this, but it so often seems like we live in a world where all we do is complain about each other. Our friends, our families, our co-workers, people we’ve never even met. If you talk to someoneContinue reading “Do You Believe In Magic?”

Miracle
September 11th, 2019 Keep going until the miracle happens. I hear this or minor variations of this all the time with the company I keep. It’s an abstract thing; a mysterious phrase that makes me want it every time I hear it. It basically means: don’t quit. Not if what you’re doing matters. Even ifContinue reading “Miracle”
Near Deer Experience
September 9th, 2019 2:28 am. I just almost died. Okay, that’s dramatic. But I did just almost hit a deer on the way home. And not just any deer; the most beautiful, haunting fawn I have ever seen. It had fallen behind its mother, and I saw its pale figure as I was screeching toContinue reading “Near Deer Experience”
Reintroduction
September 6th, 2019 Some people need no introduction. Some people beg to be reintroduced. So whether you’ve never even heard of me or you feel like you know me intimately, this is my #fridayintroductions — and maybe we’ll all learn something new today. My name is Dennis. I’m the guy in this photo. Not theContinue reading “Reintroduction”
Give Fucks
September 5th, 2019 I’mma shout this real loud for all the cool kids slouching in the back of the bus: Caring about things and people is the most attractive quality a person can have. I know when you’re young it doesn’t seem like it, because caring about stuff is lame and you are desperate toContinue reading “Give Fucks”
Tell Me Something Good
August 28th, 2019 What makes an artist special is obvious to everyone but the artist him- or herself. This applies to all people. I read this in an article the other night and the words have been rattling inside me ever since. Right before I read this, I was actually talking about someone I know,Continue reading “Tell Me Something Good”
Don’t Let Them Take Your Light
August 24th, 2019 Don’t let them take your light. Two weekends ago, I was at a convention and met a lot of awesome people. I met a couple who were incredibly nice and they were really interested in what I do. One of them gave me a call a week ago and was very complimentary.Continue reading “Don’t Let Them Take Your Light”
Extremes
August 20th, 2019 I am a person born of extremes. For most of my life, I was always the best, or I was the worst. The smartest person in the room, or so dumb I could feel everybody staring. The top of the heap, or the bottom of a garbage fire. I was perpetually hotterContinue reading “Extremes”
The World Hasn’t Existed Since 2012
August 16th, 2019 I read a theory today that the universe ended in 2012. It wasn’t a bad theory, as far as internet theories go. Multiverses, trans-dimensional travel, displaced existence, blah blah blah. It was all there. But reading it, and really thinking about it, I felt the weirdest thing. I felt relief. Because ifContinue reading “The World Hasn’t Existed Since 2012”
What My Dog Has Taught Me
August 14th, 2019 Things I’ve learned (and am still learning) from my dog: Be kind, even when you’re hungry. Especially when you’re hungry. When in doubt, try to make the human smile. Lead with trust, and learn from behavior. If someone hurts you, whether it be by accident or intentionally, it is always better toContinue reading “What My Dog Has Taught Me”
