In better times, my job is to write trivia and content for game shows. Even if things pick up again, I'm genuinely dreading an era where I have to write questions about Trump like he's The Leader of the Movementarians.

I haven't paid too much attention to the Howell/NFLPA scandal, so apologies if this has already been addressed, but do you think this ultimately makes the union stronger, or does Goodell use it as an excuse to like, bribe Trump to crush it via EO or some shit?

I once ran into Henry Winkler at a movie theatre. He was coming out of the men's room, I was going in, and we had that quasi-awkward "Who moves to which side to let the other go by?" moment. I ended up holding the door for him to pass. For the movie, his assigned seat was directly in front of mine.

Yay! WYTS might just be my favorite part of every summer... and my birthday is in August. I don't know what that says about me, but I stand by it.

My mom once white-knuckled it through the tunnel bridge to get us from DE to Virginia Beach through hurricane conditions. One of many times I thought of her as a goddamn superhero.

Sounds like the name of a hipster IPA that your friend is desperate to convince you is worth $15 a bottle.
