I write Extra Points, a newsletter about off-the-field stories in college sports. I also (badly) make computer games, woodworking projects, and jokes. Chicago.

Hypothetically, If I wanted to hire a pixel artist to help touch up some game assets and backgrounds for a revamped version of Athletic Director Simulator...where would be the best place to find somebody? Outside of Reddit and like, Fiverr?

Man, if I had a dollar for every scam "we want to invest in Extra Points" email I get from LinkedIn weirdos or overseas people who bought my email from somewhere...I don't think I'd need to charge for my newsletter. They are RELENTLESS.

Men don't read as much anymore because authors, men and women, are not giving men what they REALLY want. Pictures of Spiderman.

JMU is doing this now because they don't want to pay the Sun Belt another two million bucks, and the league was trying to raise the exit fees ahead of this exact vote lol

Many thanks to @mattbrown.bsky.social for letting me take over Extra Points (a great newsletter that you should subscribe to) this morning to talk about my college football climate change project and where I'd like to do more reporting in the future

They have closed down my street multiple times to film this program and even THEN I’m not totally sure it’s real

finished it today. my takeaways: trying to rest while living in capitalism is a land of contrasts,,,,,,, and I really should find a way to use text-based microblogging services less, "but I need it for work" be damned
