Sarah and Chrissy let me write a guest post on Philolzophy.

Unsolicited advice for the world
Giving out advice seems really douchey, like I’m saying I have it all “figured out” and I don’t have flaws. That is not the case. But that being said, there are two things I have figured out that I think repeatedly every day so I am going to share them.
If you want to be a creative person, a writer or painter or whatever, this is the major paradigm shift that will help...

Me and Ryan have received some relationship advice from drunk strangers this weekend. Both times he had interesting things on his head that confused the drunk person so they said things like “do you have dreads?” or “oh hey darth vader.”
