I always have a lot going on,
here's what I'm doing now:
I'm writing I HATE THOSE MASKED BASTARDS! for Haymarket Books …
while hosting and producing the weekly podcast Says Who …
and producing season two of the award-winning Rebel Spirit podcast …
and helping run the Civic Media Fellowships at USC …
and printing and shipping whistles (... & counting) all over the country with a crew of awesome people …
and shipping merch I make for you …
and also making stickers for the Says Who Sticker Club …
and OK that's enough.

I write a lot of notes in shortform social apps like Threads, Mastodon, and Bluesky. I also capture them on this site, so the platforms don't control my stuff. Here are a few. You can always look at my notes page for more.
