My story at @bcsmagazine.bsky.social is about witches and beginnings.

I'm so grateful to Scott at BCS for helping me make this story the best it could be, and for featuring it on the pod 💖
If I was in an old time-y noir film, I'd be the haggard guy sloppily pouring himself a stiff drink... only I'd be gesticulating with a cold brew and oat milk

The thing about PBS is that LeVar Burton was to me what MrBeast is to kids today.

All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

Women messing with men’s heads du jour: Judith slicing off head of Holofernes. No prettifying this story from Artemisia Gentileschi in 1611. Today is her day.

Mother Theresa put a dish towel on her head and she was a "saint" but when I put a dish towel on MY head I'm "drunk in the kitchen again?"

I think instead of saying, "You'll be okay," we should be saying, "I'll fight for you"

We don't have to drown everything in positivity, some shit sucks

K there's a lot of millenial shaming right now and some of it is warranted but gays, don't let them tell you you shouldn't bring back the hair bump. That little faux pompadour? Melt.

Let this be the thing the straights are afraid to appropriate.

It would help a lot of more effort was made to normalize wearing masks. It's just obvious. Smoky outside? Wear a mask. Feel like you're coming down with something? Wear a mask when around others. COVID surge? Measles outbreak? In a high risk situation? At a clinic/hospital? Wear a mask.

Correct, Harvard today the rest of the universities tomorrow
