One thing I noticed during my cocktail training is that a lot of bartenders are super horned up over the Dark ‘n Stormy. Pre-shift, mid-shift, after-shift, a Dark ‘n Stormy—or Frothy Boi as I have heard them called—seems to be the go-to for many of my favorite cocktail professionals. This has always been curious to…

In the spirit of the latest Halloween reboot, there’s a new straight-to-Netflix Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie out this week that, like the 2018 Michael Myers movie, ignores all of the intervening films and re-introduces the original’s lead (in Massacre’s case, that involves recasting Sally Hardesty—as Marilyn Burns…

Like everyone else, I long ago admitted how…

This week, the kids are testing each other’s loyalty through TikTok, clowning on a gamer for his ignorance about women’s anatomy, and making their dads famous by digging up an old disco song.

This week we mourn the passing of Pot Roast, a beloved cat who millions of TikTok users were lucky enough to have grace their algorithms in recent years. While we collectively grieve the loss of this furry icon across social media, we can cheer ourselves up by turning to the many other online animals making our lives…

The best thing about the rise of retail cannabis is that it makes it easy for beginners to get, er, rolling, as pre-rolled joints are commonly sold next to the edibles, vapes, and flower.

A few years ago, a possum got stuck in my bathroom wall. At the time, I was living in downtown Houston, in an old bungalow that sat on a pier-and-beam foundation. Somehow, the possum managed to get under the house, then crawl up in the space between the walls, where he got stuck and subsequently spent an entire day…
