I was among the layoffs at The Washington Post today. It has been an absolute dream to be a small part of this incredible team. Covering the Caps has been an honor; being a beat writer is an all-consuming thing that I love deeply. I hope I’ll get to continue that in whatever is next

I resolved to make more quick/unserious zines in 2026, so here's one: "notes app apologies," a collection of lines I jotted down in my phone notes last year that did not go anywhere (but still might be something). if you will, it's like a micro-chap but totally unedited! #DHmakes

can’t believe people would use genAI to write emails when what really gives sending emails the juice is spending ten minutes agonizing over word choice, hitting send, and realizing you used “I’d be happy to…” twice in a row anyway

regular PSA that when an independent literary magazine is “hiring,” it is likely unpaid because no one is paid, not even the people doing the hiring if you’re looking for a paid literary opportunity, the “we operate at a loss so we can share cool art with the public” crowd is probably not for you 💕
