Proud of my community in Missoula, MT today.

Was just reminded that it's the three year anniversary of Joe Walsh making a public apology for trolling me on Twitter, which feels like a nice little nightcap before a day of yelling to protest the reason I got on his radar in the first place.

Organ players at the ball parks this summer:

At this point we just have to pride ourselves in being loyal. The loyalist. There are no fans more loyal than we.

Sometimes I know I definitely need coffee. Other times, though, I maybe just need the idea of coffee. Like I just need to know coffee is there.

i think about this constantly

Decided to drive my children through four states and tour three national parks for spring break this year. You know, while we still can.

Next time someone asks me how the writing is going I will just send them this picture.

Swalwell: The stock market is crashing, and prices are rising. This guy has gone to the Super Bowl, the Daytona 500, and a UFC fight. He should go to the fucking supermarket and see what people are spending to feed themselves
