Everyone say hi to my much better half, the incredibly kind, brilliant, and talented film maker & storyteller behind the wonderful James Beard Award-winning series, food.curated. She’s the best and her middle name is Mosquito.
My first skeet. Funny since my nickname is Skeets/Skeeter. Skeet feels strange to me tho. It’s not very sticky.

It’s really nice to log in somewhere for a moment and see your friends all talking to each other. I know everyone hates social media and cheers its demise but I love to watch a great conversation bring people together.

There’s a certain tension in signing up for a new social media for the first time in a decade.

It’s like I don’t know who I want to be.

Only who I don’t.

This is, in my humble opinion, extremely good shit.
Wow, there sure are a lot of mass shootings, police violence, climate catastrophes, and [much quieter voice] Boston Catholic guy existential dread going on right now in the country. Be wild if there was a book all about that. https://www.orbooks.com/catalog/a-creature-wanting-form/

Walk up to coffee bar at my hotel in pdx. There’s a big sign: STUMPTOWN COLD BREW PROUDLY SERVED. I ask for a cold brew. Barista says they don’t do cold brew. I ask about the sign. She says, “it’s just a sign, we don’t even serve STUMPTOWN.”

Sign divorced from symbol. 🔥 advanced level.

👋 hi everybody! Just getting setup! Add me if you know me so I can find you to add! ☺️
Hey, @geoffrickly.bsky.social just got here. You may know his music (Thursday, United Nations, No Devotion), but he's also got a book coming out in July, which you can pre-order here: https://www.rosebooks.co/store/p/someone-who-isnt-me-by-geoff-rickly-paperback-preorder
SOMEONE WHO ISN'T ME by Geoff Rickly (First Edition - Paperback Preorder) — ROSE BOOKS
Let’s be real… an entire press was founded because of how good this book is… you’re going to want a first edition copy. Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance called Someone Who Isn’t Me “a spiral staircase in a burning building,” and that’s exactly it—a beautiful journey through a fiery Dante-esque assessment of the self. How can any of us truly know ourselves, and furthermore, how can any of us survive? This is Geoff’s debut novel, which Hanif Abdurraqib called “a massive, blaring achievement” and Hermione Hoby called “an incandescent debut.” Read more blurbs and more about the book here, but just know this book is actually as amazing as everyone says it is. Please note that these are PREORDERS, which means books will be shipped on July 25, 2023. Preorders help tremendously, so if you’re reading this description and you’re thinking you’ll probably just wait until July to order, that’s great, too, but please be aware that preordering now will help make sure we print enough copies. All Rose Books titles are printed in the United States. The cover image here is by Jesse Draxler and the cover design by Jesse Reed. This paperback is printed on 55# Rolland Enviro Book Paper.
