I couldn't stand by and watch boring monotone reading of lyrics become a Ben Shapiro thing

Okay, sure, he didn't say it, but he sure as hell implied it.

I talk about my favorite books, authors, and periods.

I talk about some of the things that color my thinking politically, including the development of my non-interventionism and my discomfort with conspiracy theorizing. 

I share some gardening stories and talk about how the pandemic has changed my garden plans.

I hate-read this shitty op-ed in USA Today

I talk about finding out I'm bi.

I talk about losing over 100 pounds in what just might be the most unhealthy way possible.

I've decided to relaunch my short-lived podcast by talking about the death threat that led me to end it. I also briefly touch on being outed as bi by my older brother—a topic sure to be discussed in future episodes. Fun stuff.
