Alright so first off, I’ll acknowledge that yes, I understand it’s June of 2021 and I’m just now putting out my list of favorite albums of 2020. But 1.) better late than never and 2.) uhhhhh what a year it’s been. I feel like this second point is a bit of an understatement. I mean,…
The 2010s are over. Finished. Done. Well, not really. We carry our memories, our relationships into the future. And we also carry all of the amazing art that was created during this time, captured forever for us to revisit and for future generations to discover. I’m truly, truly grateful for the fact we live in…
Well here we are. Another year finished, another year born anew for us to navigate. When you get down to it, the start of a new year is just another day beginning like every other day, but it’s nice to take a step back and look at what’s all happened on a macro sense. Patterns…

But what’s great is, no matter what challenges we face, no matter how much hope is lost or how bleak certain parts of the…
Like many of you, I woke up this morning to find out that David Bowie had passed away at the age of 69, just a few days after his birthday. Like many of you, I was utterly shocked – still am, to be honest. I don’t think a lot of people knew what was happening…
