Trip to LA
I recently did a solo trip to LA which included movies, museums, music, poker, food, and more. Let’s start from the beginning. Getting there My flight to LA was about 3 hours delayed. They needed to de-ice the plane, which took a while, but was interesting to watch. They poured some sort of orange substance…

My most epic punt in poker so far
Lock in, chat pros: this was at the Hustler Casino Live meetup game. The game was $2/$3 no limit with a $500 max buy-in. We started the hand at $800 effective. Under the gun +1 opens to $15. The lojack – the main villain in this hand, seems like a reg, has a huge stack…

Catching up with Foxing’s discography
In 2011, right in the thick of the emo revival, Foxing popped up on the emo band radar. Judging by the band name, they were automatically off to a relatively promising start. “Foxing” is succinct, unique, and memorable. It’s appropriately capitalized. It doesn’t have sports, parents, a celebrity, pants, unnecessary punctuation, or some other assortment…

It’s nice, sweet, and undeniably charming, but the…

All Hail To the Thief, All Hail To the Thief!
And we’re back with more Radiohead talk. I had been putting off listening to Hail To the Thief for quite some time now. It’s easy to see why: pretty much everything about this album at an initial glance is unappealing. For one, it has a reputation for being one of Radiohead’s Least Good albums. I…

Here’s why Amnesiac is better than Kid A
But first, hello again. I’ve recently been getting into Radiohead these last couple months. I’ve been getting sort of into them for years, but at a snail’s pace, as in, I’ll check out like one of their albums each year. But recently, for whatever reason, I’ve been going absolutely ham on them, so now I…

Trip to Japan
Two posts in the span of like a week? Wow, amazing, and probably an indication that my next post is not gonna come for like 3 more years. So until then, it’s been real. Anyway, last April I went to Japan with three friends. About a week afterward, over the course of about two afternoons,…

Anti-anti-SJWs are important
So something’s been eating at me quite a bit lately, and maybe it will be cathartic to write it down, because I haven’t really had the urge to bring it up at a dinner conversation or anything but there are some things that you have to get out somehow. It’s about anti-SJWs and anti-anti-SJWs.

First Post
Making a blog that is a WordPress this time because I don’t want to unnecessarily open another door to mindless social media staring. Anyway, don’t want to make this too formal, this will pretty much be any sort of writing or thoughts that I feel like putting on here. May include things like thoughts on books,…
