HOH Magazine: February/March 2023 Issue

HOH Magazine cover, featuring David not photoshopped onto Oprah’s body for a change — standing in front of a brick wall mural that says LOVE, wearing red pants and a plain caramel-colored sweater, posing with his hands out and down by his sides, semi-crouching a little. The first headline reads “Self-Esteem Engine: Due For Inspection!” Subtitle: “I need some regulation, just like all those train companies that keep derailing & causing ecological disasters Jesus Christ” Then there is a blue point-covered oval shaped seal that reads “Multiple Breakthroughs Inside!!” And a third area of text that reads: “Blue Buddies! David reprints his choice Letterboxd thoughts on the AVATAR movies! Page 2” which is just a little joke, the entire blog is on one page, technically.

First of all, I haven't shaved my beard yet. I am not exactly sure why. I know I said I would. It seems I have grown to like it this way. There's a significant charm to it now, and I know if I shave it off I won't get that back. Not for, you know, another thousand days. I'm not sure when I graduated from tolerance to affection, but I'm letting myself luxuriate in the big spindly bush before I take control of it. Which is itself a form of control.

Anyway, I wanted to jot down some personal thoughts, and hey that's what a blog is for. Why not just cut out the middle-man and publish it? This is supposed to be fun, not work. Let's see if I still vibe with that approach by the time I'm finished writing this, hah!

HOH Magazine: February 2021 Issue

HOH The David Magazine Cover - David's face on Oprah's body sits sideways on a director's chair that says HOH on the back, holding a cover of this very magazine, quite meta. The headlines: "WHAT THE HECK DO I KNOW ABOUT LOVE" - "Donald Trump: Yep! Still a loser! He should have lost in a landslide, but roughly 48% of Americans are brain-damaged, foolish, bigoted, idiot terrorists — more facts on page 69" - "Who's Hungry? Doctor Hannibal Lecter (NBC's 'Hannibal') shows us a few culinary secrets, revealing that his dishes are more than 'meats' the eye!" - Active Appreciation the craze that's not yet sweeping the nation!"

The Love Edition, whatever that means. Inside, this cold fish will dish out hot tips and outsider info on that crazy little thing called love. I'll help you understand what it is to 'be yourself' a little better. I even write a love letter to my 16-year-old self! Happy Reverse-Valentine's Day!

HOH Magazine: March 2017 Issue (#1!)


I have been on a break, from many a project. Things I'll "do shortly" became "get around to eventually" because I'm prioritizing being with friends these days. Creatively I'm letting myself down, but it's all the same to procrastination. Procrastination is simply (or, put simplistically) the attention paid to distractions and diversions. This is even one of those. A distracting new project that isn't much worth prioritizing, yet feels like a thing I can bang out in a day, tapping away though, as I do now, when I have a moment of inspiration, a knowledge of what exactly to put down.
(And yet this paragraph is like a week and a half old now...More inside!)
