New York based musician who plays in the bands Cold Wrecks and The Duke of Surl. I talk too much about Star Trek.
There's this social media writing pattern "if you're doing this then PLEASE do that" and my request is to stop asking me to do more stuff. Modern life is aggressively overwhelming. I'm not digging a hole in my yard to bury all the pumpkins every year. I'm not making my own gravy.

Newfoundlanders are honourary Irishmen.
My mom had black hair, was growing it out so she'd comb it back. One day she came in wearing sunglasses and my sister said "Ladies and Gentlemen, Roy Orbison"

I also need to say how thankful I am for the people who volunteer to run and work at polling places. It’s remarkable. Hundreds of thousands of regular people all over the country dedicated to making sure your votes are counted, not some dark looming government force. Let’s keep it that way.

Don’t forget to set your clocks aside tonight. Forget them in the back of the sock drawer. Box them unlabeled in the attic for ten unopened years. Hit snooze and bury them twelve feet deep in the backyard.
