Having more exposure is kind of a bittersweet thing for me, honestly, because it's nice to have a little more job security in life now.

Subtract out the impact and the fall is all you get. So here's two beers to remember why and three more to forget.

I just see a lot of people who are really terrified of the f-word. A lot of women these days, a lot of young women don't want to call themselves feminists.

Life is a B Movie: it's stupid and it's strange, it's a directionless story, the dialogue is lame, but in the 'he said she said' sometimes there's some poetry, if you turn your back long enough and let it happen naturally.

Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don't have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there's poetry written right on the bathroom wall.

I feel like I am going deeper and deeper into this space where I came from that I barely understood.

These days, my main guitar amps have been Magnatone. They're beautiful. Magnatones have actual tremolo, which I recently learned about guitar amps. Often what guitar amps call vibrato is really just a volume Up and Down. But Magnatone has a true vibrato, which is pitch bending. And so, it's just a lush sound.
