Stop texting so much. Call your friend, or anyone. A phone call can be so much faster and efficient. Especially when you’re trying to make plans. There’s so much communication that’s lost when you don’t hear someone’s tone. Listen, I was a salesman before I worked in the entertainment biz and I spent eight hours a day on the phone. Cold calling. It was disgusting. But if there’s anything I learned, it’s that if you want to close a deal it starts with picking up the phone.

calling people is nice, it gets you out of the dystopian neck-break of looking at your phone all day - put that thing to your ears and call me! talking is human!

young people (people of my generation) are AWFUL at picking up the phone when you call. even when they're your best friends, they'd rather text and not have to actually generate and communicate their thoughts in real time except when they're forced to irl. it really irritates me, especially when i know they're not actually doing anything significant when i try to call. cmon guys, a good phone call goes a long way!!!

The best part of phones is that they’re a small box of all of your friends. You can basically always talk to one of your friends. Even if they’re one million away. Isn’t that just the coolest thing ever. Call a friend today and chat for no reason. It’s one of the best things you can do.

Stop fucking around and put some marshmallows in your system. Stop buying that store-made shit. Rice Krispie treats are a perfect snack. Give some to your neighbors and friends, they’ll be grateful. You don’t know how much you love these until you make them at home. They're also super easy to make. They’ll turn on your lover too. You might be in store for the best sex of your life.

I moved to LA from NY a few years ago, and I gotta say if you aren’t going to the beach you're an idiot! Most of us are an hour drive from some of the most beautiful beaches in the world! I hit all the beaches - and will even drive out to Laguna - IDGAF. I love going into the ocean, it makes me feel alive. When the water's calm I like to float and let my mind wander. I’ve come up with some of my best ideas out there. I also have been tumbled by some really strong waves - scary stuff - gotta respect the tide. The sun and the ocean really help me feel alive. If I’m bummed and I go to the beach, the next day I always feel better. It’s magic - we are a species that needs sun! Buy an umbrella if you don’t like the sun and just stare at the ocean. It’s beautiful. I’ve seen dolphins and whales many times in California. Bring a cooler and throw out your trash. Sorry to be such an environmentalist.

I’m obsessed with this football team. When they win I’m happy. When they lose my day is totally fucked. This past season was particularly tough. We lost like five games in the last few seconds. It was brutal. But the future is bright because we have Caleb Williams, a star QB who paints his fingernails. Growing up in Chicago my dad was a big Bears fan. He would throw shit at the TV and get pissed. It’s probably in my blood. I appreciate football because it’s a true team sport. All eleven guys on the field need to contribute in order to succeed. I was on my high school team and I rode the bench, but our team went 11-1 in both my junior and senior years. It was my first time being part of something successful. We once had a game where 10,000 people attended. The whole town shut down it was insane. CLTV helicopters were there. We were a small school, but a lot of our guys got college scholarships, and one guy went to the NFL. So uh yea, football rules (minus the CTE). Da Bears.
