A letter of gratitude to a true giant

I read Hanif Abdurraqib's new book (it's great, you should read it) and then woke up and wrote about longing for home and the 2020/2021 the Milwaukee Bucks.

Last post of 2024. Not being on much social media these past few months has been great for my brain. I probably won't be on here much in 2025 either (if I can figure out how to transfer ownership of the Bucks feed, I'll prob delete this acct). If you wanna keep up, find me on substack or ig!

Wasn’t planning on doing any actual work this week but then a dev went rogue and pushed a bunch of random stuff live and now the entire design team is in emergency mode. I am not happy.

Sometimes I think of BJ Raji doing his cute little pick 6 dance against the Bears and I smile

Listening along to an album with a lyrics sheet is really just the best

If the Bucks lose this, this would be the single biggest upset in the history of the first day of the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup.

someone (a wicked stan) told me to "have fun watching documentaries" as an insult lol

A funny story about bloodhounds before I go. Augustus went through the search and rescue program with my stepfather. Did great until the final certification when, instead of finding the guy hiding in the woods to pass, he tracked a bag of McDonald's fries. For two miles.

Can we get the gen x spin instructors out of retirement to reclaim these studios? Things have gotten out of hand.

Christmas shopping done. Time to walk the beast.

I thought maybe I’d get Ben/myself a blu ray player for Christmas and the one everyone recommends is FIVE HUNDRED dollars???? In 2024??? wtf.

We didn’t go home for Thanksgiving this year which means I have no one to sneak a cig with, very upsetting

James took a clove from the head of garlic reserved for simmering in the cream for the mashed potatoes.

The bird. The pooch.
