Booked a trip to Vermont this weekend for our anniversary… first time away since we had our second kid. And it’s going to be hotter on Lake Champlain than it is in Winston 😭😭😭

I’m 36 and cannot think of a single one of my peers who isn’t appalled by what Israel is doing. Almost all of us have young children, so it hits hard. Several of the ones I’m close enough with to have a more in-depth conversation about it with have said US support of Israel is one of their top...

Excited for a slate of heavy shows later this summer and fall. The Acacia Strain in Charlotte, The Callous Daoboys in Greensboro and freaking AFI in Asheville. I’m particularly excited for He Is Legend in Asheville though. They’re a metalcore band from Wilmington that have since changed their...
