I like merchandise that you can’t buy. The Harvard Lampoon, like Lucien, makes sweatshirts that are not for sale. A TV writer sent me mine, which is Celtics themed. Pretty sure you can ask any TV writer in America to hook you up, they all went to Harvard… Pair with a hat from The Drift, another Harvard byproduct. I’m sure they’re for sale, though I can’t know for certain, as mine was free…I’ve lifted quite a bit of Dalton merch off friends, I recommend that too.

I started making merch under “Holy Ghost Prep” a few years ago not knowing it’s an actual school. I’ve gotten stopped a few times + I’ve had friends ask if they’ve attended in the past. My thing is like…their merch is pretty bad. I’m waiting for either (A) a cease and desist or (B) a job offer to manage their creative department.
All jokes aside, I have a few misc shirts left from a prev design that pokes fun at culty religious private schools with a “GOOD AND SAFE CHRISTIAN EDUCATION FOR ALL” tag line. If you want one and I happen to have your size I’ll send it over if you’re down to cover shipping. Shoot me a message. It’s nice.

Making your own merch for your life has never been more easy. I used to go to Kinkos as a kid because they would put anything on a t-shirt. Now I make embroidered hats with inside jokes and print stills from "Dead Poets Society" on crewnecks. It's a lot of fun to find a piece of clothing you like and add onto it.

I’m seeing Have a Nice Life in my (and their!) college town, and they‘ve got a shirt with the building I spent 4 years in to get one of my degrees - of course I bought it, Herter Hall you sucked but nothing could make me hate you

Henry makes a lot of low key insufferable navel-gazey films that I really enjoy. Last Summer in the Hamptons (1995) is his best. A matriarch presides over her family, who are all somehow involved in the theatre. It makes you wish you grew up with intellectuals in a house by the sea. Eating: A Very Serious Comedy about Women and Food is so annoying, it’s just women saying they’re fat at a party in Los Angeles, but my friend and his wife have the poster in their dining room, and it’s a great poster, I recommend getting it. He’s alive, Henry is, my translator friend knows him, she’s his muse, though she’s turned the camera back on him, her documentary on him needs a place to screen, if you’re a gallerist, get in touch. Support living artists!

I thought Labi Saffre was a woman, he’s not. Nice quality in a singer. Anyway, these are two of the best love songs ever written. I first heard You’re Lovely on repeat on mushrooms. It’s :32 seconds. I recommend the experience.

I prefer the writing of writers who never publish. Sam Frank is one of the best who publishes the least. He’s probably going to be publishing even less, because he’s doing well in crypto. Sad! Start with this piece in Harper’s where he hangs out with some libertarians and this piece in Triple Canopy about how his dad failed to do what he might have done. Or email him.
