Do you think Taco Palenque is on the same level of Texas icon status as Whataburger? Do you think piratas are the greatest food to come out of the 956? I'm writing a story and want to hear your memories/thoughts and more. Que venga la discourse! #puropinche956 #rgv #laredo

“Being Mexican doesn’t mean just one thing,” says @SheaSerrano about his new show #Primo . Check out my review over at @TexasMonthly where I ponder where the show fits into the Latin-American family sitcom canon.

I woke up in a man’s bed, had a dream I was seeing Challengers again and Zendaya was there, and am now only slightly hungover making my way to Broadway for a matinee. And that’s 36.

I'm unexpectedly very emotional about this. I've been reading @TexasMonthly my entire life and to be published by them, writing about my hometown and giving props to a food culture that is so underserved, I'm just really, really proud.
