Like I’ve been saying for years… crypto is for idiots and crooks.
I Believe... [in Classic Cars]
...that passion and art can be found anywhere as long as there are people willing to create things out of a sense of joy, curiosity, and obsession. Don’t believe me? Go to a car show in Central Kansas and talk to anyone who has spent years building out a pristine 1926 Ford Roadster.
The Abandoned Station
The cubicles are like strange archeological digs with the remnants of crap from those who worked at them, moved on, and left a few items behind.
I Believe... [Defining Cool]
...that the definition of what is and is not cool is pretty simple. Anyone desperately seeking popularity or approval? Not cool. Anyone disapproved by a lot of other people? Cool.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes, that reason is really fucking stupid.
I Believe... [Humping Amazon Boxes?]
...that polyamory is simply people without the ability to commit to an arrangement more important than individual desire. The most polyamorous creature on the planet is a mutt that humps everything from other dogs to human legs to Amazon boxes.

You know how people were once given their last names based on the job they did? Black from blacksmith, Baker from, well, baking, etc. Lynch is an awkward last name.
The Hornet That Stings
There are two purposes of comedy: to make us laugh at ourselves or to make us laugh at others.
The Bar
The man picked up the tumbler, downed the whiskey in one swallow and slammed the glass on the glistening mahogany. He shuddered. “That did the trick.” His black eyes moved to the bartender, shoving his glass towards him. “But that ain’t Jameson’s, ace. Don’t try that again.”
I Believe... [Poor Things Sort of Hit Home]
...that Poor Things is the best film of 2023 despite the fact that apparently I was married to Bella and the movie leaves me feeling slightly nauseated.
Things That Should Be Left in 2023
Hey! It’s an end-of-the-year listicle! Groovy.

The only thing better than spending Christmas money is watching your kids play with their new Christmas toys among the shreds of wrapping paper, torn cardboard boxes, and squeals of perfect, youthful laughter.
2023 Debunked Body Positivity
2023 brought three billion dollar phenomena that slaps the blubbery jowels of this entire concept revealing a deep hypocrisy underneath the fleshy folds of this “fat is healthy and beautiful” mantra.
I Like to Watch | The Best Movies of 2023
In assessing my favorites for the year, I look at my initial reaction, how long the film sits with me, and whether or not I want to see it repeatedly after.
The Word of 2023 is...
Lots of uncertainty and, as is typical, uncertain people tend to get anxious and pissy.
I Believe... [Santa Heavy Lifting]
...that, if Santa were actually real, he’d have a hard time wrapping both a Trump conviction and a Trump presidency for the population of the US. If he’s real, he might be able to pull it off, though.

Sometimes life can feel like the final week before your next haircut. It’s awkward and difficult to manage, but know that better (hair) days are ahead.
I Believe... [Yes or No Questions]
...that anytime anyone demands you answer a ‘yes or no’ question, it’s a trap.

I love watching women walk in heels. It’s either sexy or clumsy and either way, it always makes me smile.
Striking for Jobs That Will Soon No Longer Exist

Nathan Fielder’s latest cinematic performance art project is an open ended question of how we perceive reality.
