hi, I'm David.
I just moved to Portland but I grew up on a farm in mid-Missouri and dropped out of Journalism school in 2012.

I am father, boss, and (often) body to an online magazine which I launched with a bunch of Twitter friends in 2016.

my favorite (and best) subject is the intersection of technology and culture over time and across class.

my last remaining genuine joys are cars, watches, and Houston rap.

this is a real picture of my mother, myself, and George W. Bush.

the Garageband iOS app is even better now but I'm still not sure why anyone would actually use it for anything. https://clyp.it/yzrovg5z
