Dad. Husband. Attorney. Journalist. Citizen.

I love bookstores, sports (especially basketball), great music and empathetic, kind people.
Imagine being the worst person the worst person on the planet knows.

How the billionaire you elected acts when hungry kids need food and millions of Americans might lose their health care.

The President wants to nuke the filibuster to end the shutdown and take health care away from millions of Americans but at least he put a tacky sign outside the Oval Office.

Happy 4th of July, everyone! Happy 249th Birthday, America.

I love my country. I want to be proud of it again.

Do what you can on a local and national level so we can get there. Organize. Volunteer. Be kind and be tough. Vamos 🇺🇸

Shout out to @wakeforest.bsky.social - whose baseball coach Tom Walter managed to gaslight everyone in this “apology” for using a homophobic slur on television last night.

Naturally, 0 consequences.

It’s @nytpitchbot.bsky.social worthy to imply it wouldn’t backfire 😂

It’s a fact that Gainesville, FL is one of the hottest places in the United States.

But I don’t remember triple digits in May that often. And it was 58 this morning.

Days get hotter, variations more extreme.

It’s the oscillating temperatures and extremes that seem so different these days.

I miss my Dad so much.

Some days, I’m doing cool things in legal career and if I were one of those folks who could grieve through full conversations with loved ones who aren’t there, I know I wouldn’t shut up.

Today was one of those days. Still trying to do good, Dad. To make you proud.

Valentines 💘 Day reminder that while Ryan Adams turned out to be a disappointing jackleg, “Heartbreaker” is still a perfect record.

If you look closely at this beautiful picture of snowy Chapel Hill this morning, you can see the lights on the third floor filled with folks debating whether this time around, Carolina should accept the NIT invite.

Just southwest of Tallahaseee — snow on the beach. Weird but f***ing beautiful
