Well, here we are. You, reading a newsletter. Me, writing a newsletter. Who would’ve thought? Certainly not me! For years, I’ve resisted the urging of many people to turn my twitter following into something “more”. To be frank, even though I see the little number at the top of my twitter page, it’s hard to imagine that close to 5,000 people are reading whatever I decide to tweet. You apparently can’t run forever though, so I here I am.
As anyone who’s been awake for one of my late night twitter threads can attest, I have many thoughts. About many things. I recently got the idea that maybe, possibly, it might be good for me to write those things down. Into “articles”. Which is what led us to this moment. You, reading a newsletter. Me, writing one.

What do I hope for this thing to be? I’m not fully sure. I guess as we go along, it’ll start to take on a form of its own. Like a toddler. The thought of starting this is nerve-wracking. Giving it a solid structure is beyond me at the moment. You can reasonably expect me diving into pop culture, social media, and celebrity. They won’t all be deep dives, though. I know myself well enough to know you’ll see the occasional listicle. I’m going to try to post weekly, but at worst I’ll post twice a month. I swear.
I didn’t really know what to say when I started typing this. I’m taking it as a good sign that it was easy to write. This writing thing is always a bit awkward for me. If you don’t subscribe, thanks for reading this far. If you do subscribe, thank GOD, I need this to not flop.
slaaaayyyyy
