Dear Satan, you were supposed to take Ricketts instead.

Your younger self is super cute, but you look way better and healthier as a middle aged man.

The 90s were painful for a lot of us.

Congratulations and thanks for keeping the truth alive.

I live in a city where immigrants did all of this and more: They’ve saved the city from itself.

They’ve packed it with children, small businesses, and immaculate multi-generational homes.

They’ve “gentrified” it in all the right ways.

Twenty-five years ago, this place was a nasty meth ghetto.

I’m smitten. It’s a particularly loving act of resistance to engage in on behalf of our homeless neighbors on SNAP. A hot meal while living on the streets during winter can be magical, especially when traveling to the nearest soup kitchen requires a silly amount of time and energy.

Good on you!

Of the more than 60 articles I've written, this is probably my favorite one: the biography of Bright Star, a Pawnee professional roller skater, known in the 19th century as "the fastest man on wheels"
