  • Running out of ideas

    To be a good writer, you can’t just write. You need something to write about. You need to read. You need to experience life. You need to have conversations. Words don’t just flow from nothing. You need to build a source from which you can draw. I have drained by source, and I have given…

  • Is this a PR crisis for FIFA?

    If I were Gianni Infantino, I’d think I had a crisis on my hands. I would be highly cognizant that there are cries around the world calling be corrupt. As the leader of FIFA, I would see that as a problem that takes away trust in our ability to steward the world’s game. But I…

  • That little dog

    When Paris Hilton hit the scene, it was with her iconic spoiled chihuahua. Oh to be that pampered dog, living a life of luxury of being fully provided for without having to lift a finger, or rather a paw at all. It is as enviable a life, if not moreso, as its ultra-rich owners’. Truthfully,…

  • It’s all starting to look the same

    The ad started to play. A woman in a luxe home with soft lighting, slowly stretching. I had no idea which brand it was until the name came across the screen at the end. And then another ad played, with calm music, a luxe setting. “Ah, this must be …” And no it wasn’t. The…

  • A trip the Augustinus Bader spa

    Nestled in Soho is the Augustinus Bader Skin Lab NYC. You just have to find it first. I walked up and down Greene Street certain that my maps had misdirected me. There is no sign on the door. You just have to trust your directions. Finally, I approached the shop at the address and greeted…

  • Quick try of Book by Commodity Fragrances

    It was one of those days that I wanted to get my productivity going. I needed a scent to turn my mind to work. I looked to Book – Personal from Commodity. Surely, it would take me to those studious days, when I was focused and in the zone, ready to complete my projects. It’s…

  • Repeating myself

    I was consistently frustrated. I complained to anyone who would listen just how often I had to repeat myself to that woman. Meeting after meeting, I had to same the thing multiple times before it got through. What seemed obvious to me need explaining for reasons I couldn’t understand. Then, just to prove myself and…

  • This should be your summer fashion staple

    It is hot outside, and the Earth is only getting hotter. And yet, there you are, attempting to look professional in your wool suit, tie, and long sleeves. It is time to let that go. Set your sweat ducts free and move towards more breathable fabrics. Can I suggest linen? I am personally an outsized…

  • Oh, the big city

    I travel to New York multiple times a year. Sometimes it’s for work, but mostly for fun. There is so much there I want to do and discover. I have a growing list of restaurants and coffee shops. And let’s not forget the museums, fashion weeks, pop-ups, conferences, and so much more that I want…

  • An unhelpful ad

    The Polymarket ad had a model posing against a wall, as text popped up on the screen. A rotating list of questions. Leaving the view with a question: Then later, an ad with Timothee Chalamet in a dentist chair, saying Kalshi over and over, hoping that the dentist will understand his muffled syllables this time.…
