I got a gift from my homie Sam here in Lincoln. Life is so random. Whelp, I'm off to go think about stuff. ✌🏾 (at Lincoln, Nebraska)

Soooooooooo much more I want to do with this! New Economic Criticism is dope AF! #literature #litnerd #FMA

Regret missing the Women's March, so I'm rocking my Wonder Woman beanie in solidarity! #womansmarch #fucktrump #dc

Never thought much of her, but this album has changed all that! This weeks #artistfeatureoftheweek goes to Solange! This album gave me all sorts of feels! Incorporating a range of styles, Neo-Soul, R&B, and Pop, Solange produces this bold ethereal sound. It's so refined and nuanced, yet still gritty and in your face. You can view this album as political. You can view this album as a celebration of blackness. Perhaps even a journey of personal discovery. However you want to approach this album, just listen to it! Easily one of the best albums of 2016! I'm giving this one a 8/10! #solange #musicmondays?

When your love for pop-culture meets your love for literature! 😏😂 #atlanta #literaturenerd #graduateschool #edgarallanpoe

You didn't think I'd miss the first #musicmondays of the new year did you? I'm really considering renaming these things. This one is dedicated to @dragonrabbit2 for reminding me that Kamaiya had arguably the best debut LP of the year! A Good Night in the Ghetto is the epitome of fundamental west coast rap. It channels the cool slick beats of G-funk, elevating the sound to new levels. Lyrically, this Oakland native tells us intricate stories that defy expectations and play on our modern sensibilities. First word that comes to mind is refreshing. I CANT STOP BUMPING THIS ALBUM! Check it out guys! #kamaiya #agoodnightintheghetto

Take me back to 2014. It was a great year for punk music! Give me more Priests! #bodiesandcontrolandmoneyandpower

For the first time in a long time #musicmondays presents The Garden. This rock duo consist of 2 brothers and a brand of experimental punk that will rock your brains out! Been a shitty year guys. But the features will be bigger and better in 2017. #fuck2016

This is my best friend! He knows just what to say to get me out of a depression. 😂😂 #fuckarthistory

A perfect way to conclude my birthday weekend. Thanks guys! (at Castle BBQ)

It! Is! DONE!!!! If anyone needs me I'll be packing! 😂 #civicduty #govoteassholes #voteshaming

Good luck little brother! I'm proud of you. I love you. (at Los Angeles MEPS, 7th Bn, US Military Entrance Processing Command)

Hey look, my degree(s) came! They managed to get the blood sweat and tear stains off before they mailed it. Good on you CSUSB. Good on you. #classof2016 #englishnerd #2degreesbitches #collegegraduate #literature #linguistics

#musicmondays presents City and Colour! He's Canadian, he's indie, he's fantastic! Where's my coffee?! #indiefolk #lifeisbeautiful2016 #canada
