Thought: The funny thing about filling out college admissions paperwork is that they are literally asking for your first born.

If I ever lose all self respect and make a TikTok video, It will be “How to make a passibly authentic NOLA style Shrimp Po-Boy using all Trader Joes ingredients.”

Because the one I just made was so damn good it could go viral.

I received Unreasonable Hospitality while making a reservation at Commander’s Palace yesterday and, let me tell you, it made my whole week.

Thing is, it was not that hard to do. You can systematize magic and joy.

The point I’m trying to make here is that as pretty as things are right now, Winter can come at anytime so have your shovels ready.

Look, even if you’re not from Minnesota now that you live here you must educate yourself on the lore of the 91 Halloween blizzard. You must take it all in study it and tell it to others anytime the subject of Winter is brought up. Remind them even snowblowers have limits. I don’t make the rules.

My name is Patrick and it’s been so many days/weeks/months since I intentionally used generative AI for anything I can’t even do this “last accident” riff correctly.
