This is for real and important

I haven’t actively used social media in years— anything posted to my page goes unread. I’m not about to drop my real email into the public ether where it’ll get nuked by bots, spam, and “just one quick thing…” messages.

This is the only portal I’m using now to exchange real contact information. Submissions here are routed to a burner inbox—a digital airlock where I screen messages before they hit my real world. If you’re someone I’ve actually connected with in life, I want to hear from you—but you’re going to have to prove it.

Want to get through? Then write like you mean it. Remind me who you are, how we actually know each other, or drop a memory I wouldn’t forget even after two concussions and a bottle of wine.

Show effort, show personality. Otherwise? That lazy “Hey it’s John from Utah" message will get you ghosted harder than Whitesnake’s fanbase in ‘92.

All this said—if you’re a real one, I do want to hear from you. Let’s reconnect the old-school way: with actual words and a little soul.
