“Come then. Leave your war awhile, paper or iron war, petrol or flesh, come in with your love, your fear of losing, your exhaustion with it. All day it’s been at you, coercing, jiving, claiming your belief in so much that isn’t true.” Thomas Pynchon hitting hard on a Friday

Tyler is one of the sharpest essayists out there with a voice that is fun, seeking, reflective and not scared of plumbing experience. We’re big fans. Plus he’s a new dad and needs money for diapers.
