I suddenly randomly remembered that back on Twitter I thought it was funny to talk about his name being short for “elongated muskrat,” which it was, but wow, those were more innocent days

And now back to my full time job, texting the word "stop" to every living Democrat.

Putting “-EAH” at the end of my first drafts so it’s clear that I’m not really responsible

I’m more upset than necessary about the Marissa Mayer AI thing. I could literally point at -*any random little girl* and say, I sense that she’s empathetic! Creative! and loves animals! And win the lottery. What kind of person would tell this story out loud??

When you travel to another country, the phone miraculously allows you to easily find your way around & translate foreign languages, including ones on signs

my favorite You Can See Everything reaction thus far belongs to the woman who walked out of my screening while telling her friend, "I don't think I can go to work tomorrow"

Useful context for this and the other clips @atrupar.com is posting this morning: The president is a rapist.

I mean this in the best way possible but it is genuinely bewildering to watch large swaths of the internet have complex and well-considered thoughts about a provocative three-hour documentary

bond should be old, tired, annoyed, and unimpressed emma thompson bond

Pretty nearly the whole actual point of getting white college students to go to Mississsippi for Freedom Summer was to draw national media attention

This could be turned into a movie and just as easily be a comedy as a tragedy as a thriller.

I've mentioned before I've updated my contracts to make sure everything in the production of my books is done by humans and not "AI"; if you're wondering what such a thing looks like, here's a clause covering that from a recent contract.

For this week’s @nymag.com, I profiled Lance Oppenheim! We went deep on the making of You Can See Everything—how a certain actress got involved, how the shower scene happened, and how embedding with Elizabeth Holmes forced him to find a new way of working.

Oh, this is awful. Ann was such a wonderful critic and a lovely person, too. Awful awful. www.washingtonpost.com/obituaries/2...

There's been a surge of popular art about the first years of the AIDS crisis. In this new essay, I try to honor and explore a charged moment in which custody of that art-making is shared by people who lived through those dark years and people who didn't. Gift link. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/19/t...

The phrase they keep using, “suicidal empathy,” means they believe those who help vulnerable people are actually dangerous. “Suicidal empathy” means maintaining vulnerable people is like failing to prune a plant: only by excising the sick parts can the whole plant thrive.

Some personal news: the coffeemaker is now located in the bedroom

This is how cowards behave. Trump does it too--docile in a meeting then brags publicly on social that he let the other guy--who was 'dishonest, totally horrible to me' or whatever--have it

do you disavow Satan and all his works?

It's almost like we shouldn't let a small group of the most venal people on earth control the internet

Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

A bad update: we're getting reports of pro-No Kings creators who have been suspended today as well. And we still lack backend access to the official No Kings account. Stay tuned, will report news when I have it.

so restricting Ukraine's Starlink was Musk's idea, but after Moscow took advantage he became "alarmed about the possibility of adverse consumer reaction in Europe" to the "night of carnage" and denied responsibility I mean, it sounds like typical Elon

It was always confusing to me that Nazism was so homoerotic while also being venomously, violentlyanti-gay & I didn’t expect to live through a period that would explain it to me

Is there a word for weather that’s wrong

As much as it is cool to get a high-quality network show with an old-fashioned 20th-century 20 episode order, this show would’ve benefited from a streaming-style, double pump two episode premiere 

I have never posted a screen shot from the bad place but this is where I make an exception (via @andydehnart.com 's Reality Blurred newsletter)

That movie better have a wicker I don’t even know her joke

The art of play isn’t hard to master; so many birds seem filled with the intent to be bought that their loss is no disaster.

It's not "strikingly juvenile" and it's not a "personal broadside." It's hate speech. The Vice President is trying to get people to vote against a Democrat by implying that he's gay and/or a pedophile and/or a fetishist. Take it seriously. It is on a par with every other kind of hate speech.
