I don't know what I am going to do with these thousands of Metro Weekly photos I'm digitizing, but something.... maybe a Substack? Meanwhile, here are a scattered few from today's 1996 pile, including Luke Sissyfag. IYKYK.

Sure. It was jobs (retail, real estate, production, licensing, marketing, intellectual property protection, to name just a few) plus some more ephemeral things like community, interaction, sense of place, personal choice, curation…

Evening viewing recommendation? Before it leaves the Channel in April, don't miss NIGHT OF THE COMET (1984)! The postapocalyptic disaster thriller meets the '80s teen movie in this smartly entertaining Reagan-era satire. bit.ly/3xgip5a

I'm incredibly honored to be included in @TIME’s Top 100 Photos of 2023, but this photo is a reminder that Jackson, MS's water issues have not been fully resolved, even if the topic hasn't been front page news recently. Shot on assignment for @Guardianrb.gy/148u1d
