Spring has sprung in Durham! The sun is out, several unnamed students’ guns are out, and we’re all feeling merry. Hey-nonny-nonny! (“Much Ado About Nothing” is filled with this expression, and […]
Up and Vanished
I don’t think it’s possible to convey how essential suspenseful podcasts have become to my existence and functionality as a human. My Favorite Murder gets me to, and through, the gym. Sword […]
Six Degrees of David Hampton
Imagine this: You’re in your apartment. It’s nighttime and the weather is mild– the typical early spring-late winter deal. You smile at yourself in the mirror. #tooblessedtobestressed is right. You can’t […]
