Yeah my job is pretty cool. My uniform is a tactical vest that’s two sizes too small and a gaiter I bought in a gas station. They send me to sneak into schools to kidnap little kids because people got mad about having to press 1 for English. The president had to warn everyone to stop spitting on me.

For better or often for worse, this country’s foundational and enduring ethos is “Fuck you, make me.” The Trump admin doesn’t seem to know this, but it’s about to learn.

Love the misogynistic framing on this. Oprah didn’t shame James Frey, he shamed himself by lying extravagantly for fame and profit. But a woman had the nerve to scold him on TV, so fuck it, literary bad boy it is.

Think about all the incredible writers you know who can’t get any publicity but James Fucking Frey gets the front page glow up in the Sunday NY Times, called a “literary outlaw” for making shit up in a book billed as non-fiction, and a whole paragraph devoted to him describing his orgasms.

When Trump survived the assassination attempt and had to accept Elon’s direct help on the the campaign (literally, like sharing the stage with him and everything) I just thought about the baptism scene from THERE WILL BE BLOOD and it looks like we’re reaching the bowling alley scene now

I watched this kid grow up alongside one of my dear friend’s daughters, since she was a small child. I’ve chaperoned her at birthday parties. Played board games with her. And now she’s been murdered, and it’s impossible to get your head around. Help out her poor mother, if you can.

Will cancel for sure if this happens. I'll just have to go somewhere else to watch shows launched to great fanfare that are killed off before the second season ever sees the light of day.

My favorite line from his niece’s sweetly irreverent obit: “He hated Bill Maher for no good reason.” Oh hon, I assure you he had plenty of reasons to hate Bill Maher.
