One thing that is true of me as a writer is that I will always need a capable editor. I have some very persistent bad habits related to grammar and punctuation, for one thing. It’s not that I don’t care; it’s just that I seem to have stubborn blind spots.

I don’t want to hear about how many people eat bugs all the time around the world. The answer is no, followed by a stream of faster-than-light barf aimed at your face for suggesting it.

My favorite is when I see someone I follow smarting off to someone whom I’ve blocked. God bless block lists.

I don't particularly vibe with the YouTube Affect, and this video has it, but it's very good on explaining the right wing attitude to the question of empirical reality versus 'mythic truth'. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZzw...

I don’t know how to whistle really loudly. My whole life has been empty for want of this one elusive talent. My dream is to whistle loudly enough to stop a garbage truck before it leaves my block. If you ever see me pensively staring out at the ocean, don’t ask what I’m thinking. It’s this.

The genius of these tariffs is, in the seemingly unlikely event that Captain Sundown decides to roll them back, there’s less incentive for certain other countries to do the same having now observed the effects of our colossal self own. They’re basically self-imposed economic sanctions at this point.

I want to understand. Is the ellipsis under attack from people who are mad because they don’t know what it means and/or how to use it?

I don’t know what to do around these good people who got twisted by these bad ideas. And don’t tell me “well, they aren’t good people if that happened”because fuck you if you think there isn’t something weak or bad in everyone. Propaganda works on anybody if it hits them where it hurts.

Well, GenX, our collective social comeuppance seems to be at hand. First they came for the Boomers and we said nothing because we agreed. We should probably keep our mouths shut this time, too. Actions speak louder and all that. 1/6
