WHY TODAY'S KIDS ARE COOKED | THEY CAN'T READ AND ITS ENTIRELY YOUR FAULT, KAREN

I dated a woman who put her son in front of a tablet or Xbox while she ran out to the club all night. She couldn't even wait until it was their dad's weekend to have them. She would just straight up sit her son in front of a tablet, run off to the Los Angeles nightclubs until 4AM, and then consider herself a primary candidate for "Mother of the Year." Her son was in middle-school and still couldn't even fucking read.

On drives alone, I just wished there was some kind of music I could blast that could help me feel something. I was so numb. I quickly learned that there's not a lot of music out there for widowers. So I wrote some." 
Fortunately, his wife made a remarkable recovery, and the rest of the album was written to process a complicated, tangled web of emotions. "I want this music to provide catharsis and comfort to those spouses who lose their marriage and find themselves in a caregiver role. It's not the romantic, happy life you envisioned. There can be a lot of grief and anger because of that – and then guilt over feeling sad and angry. I want those people to know they're not alone.""
