1. I was raised there from the age of six to 21-years-old before moving out West. 2. The Baltimore Orioles, who’ve made a fairytale comeback this season! 3. Because the city of Baltimore and mostly the entire state of Maryland is surrounded by water—lakes, rivers, marshes, the bay, and the ocean. Consider it a dirtier version of … Continue reading »

Dear Metropolitan Transportation Authority,
You were good to me this past long weekend. I learned how to ride you like a true champ — much to my surprise. But you gave me too much time to think about my life. I’m not entirely sure how I feel about that. Continue reading »
Salty As Shit
That’s Motoi Yamamoto, creating his piece back in 2011 titled, FOREST AND BEYOND. Can you believe this is actually made up of salt? It’s absolutely amazing. I don’t even really know what else to write: check it for yourself. Continue reading »

T.G.I.F Throwback — Space Jam

In all honestly, this film has to be one the most ridiculous, yet brilliant combinations ever: Outer space, basketball, Micheal Jordan, Looney … Continue reading »
To Soothe My Mode of Transport Woes
I’m getting really fed up with only having a bicycle to tow my ass around lately. Have been carrying books, laptops, chap-stick, keys, condoms, bike locks, bananas, coffee, lipstain, lunch, resumes, groceries, plants, wine, hats, notepads, shoes, #2 pencils, sweaters, vinyl, cameras, speakers, and six-packs on my bicycle. And this shit’s starting to get old. But I … Continue reading »
