I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.

Dear Democratic Party,
Maybe now is a good time to come up with food banks and donation centers to make sure families don’t go hungry during the Epstein Recess.
I mean, beyond this being a smart strategic move (the party cares about you), it’s the right thing to do.

I remain steadfast in my conviction that even accidentally targeting a UN aid vehicle should be one of the most terrifying realizations in the human experience. *Deliberately* doing so should promise such a world of hurt that most people would rather jump in front of a jet engine.
