Connecticut. When you say the word, the rest of America sneers. Those people? With their boats and their Vineyard Vines and their white picket fences? Psht. There’s no such thing as Connecticut pride. People here are like, “Well I guess this is fine.” The trip to any comment section of any Connecticut publication is a … Read more
As the quarantine almost enter its fifth month, I felt really down and cabin fever was starting to get to me. So I decided to dust off my inflatable kayak and headed off to East Rock park. After my afternoon in the sun, paddling on the glistening water among cranes, turtles, and the occasional fisher-persons, … Read more
Oh, hey. Yes, I know. It’s been awhile. I’ve been slacking. We’ve all been slacking. I hope. Three months ago I was all, “This will be an unparalleled moment of creativity and output for me!” Now I realize most of my output is in World of Warcraft. And that’s okay.

So you’ve found someone to go on a date with you. First, pat yourself on the back, because that’s impressive. You’ve scoured dating apps, begged your friends, whatever. Now you’re going to need to meet somewhere, because you don’t know, this person could be a serial killer. And with the state of queer dating in … Read more
If you’ve ever argued with me on reddit (and you probably have), you know I’m a huge proponent of public transportation. I ride my bicycle to work. I take the bus when it rains. I’m a huge fan of trains and Connecticut’s push for CTrail. I’ve never had a compelling reason to take the new(-ish) … Read more
