My favorite days in California are when the light is warm and the air is still cool. Neighborhood ravens parry clicks and gronks, a tandem glide. The sun sets like the release of a hug, both too soon and exactly on time to see the smile in the eyes of the night.

Yay!! Congrats! 🎉 Would love to come play with the BF team one day.

Yes! Remember when we used to make heartfelt, progressive, smart TV with lots of episodes filled with characters we loved and wanted to hang out with every week that gave us hope for the future and didn’t bum us the fuck out?? Turns out people like that!
