Apple's leadership is going quisling, tidal is owned by jack dorsey, and the house of saud has a stake in deezer...having to weigh all the different awful ownership situations from the non-spotify companies in the space is such a fun time.

Hot take:
If you call yourself a "content creator" I just assume you make slop.

If youre a photographer, producer, artist, musician - call yourself that. You're making art. Not just 'content' for a 'platform'

Cal & Kats Wedding July 26th, 2025. Absolutely one of the humidiest days of the summer of '25.

It's been a while since I've shot a wedding AND blogged and here's how that looks on Ghost 6!

So here's the bottom of my first ever barbell squat attempt

- could've gone lower

Podcast Episode: Love the Internet Before You Hate On It There’s a weird belief out there that tech critics hate technology. But do movie critics hate movies? Do food critics hate food? No! The most effective, insightful critics do what they do because they...
