Something about trying to read an article from 2022 to understand β€œmultiple slurp juices on a single ape” only to find that the tweets referenced have been deleted because the accounts associated with them have been... β€œmilkshake duck'd"?

Just trying to do the cromulent thing here.

Celebrities need to stop having siblings.

Like, there’s another Franco?

I don’t think so.

That’s a franc-no.

Honestly, I know some people using Substack, and it seemed like a good choice for beginners. But I may change as my needs change

Billy Corgan would rather believe that the CIA and the "wizard behind the curtain" destroyed rock music in the Late 90s than accept that he was simply waning in relevance around that time. #Corganmaxxing

Apparently the 12 step business meeting is a very fraught affair. Who knew getting a bunch of deeply messed up people in a room together and make decisions would lead to chaos?

Everyone becomes magically stupider the minute they walk into a Trader Joe's. No idea how it happens. They see the elote dip and shrink wrapped zucchini and boom. Zero spatial awareness.

A few years ago I took a trip up to the woods in Northern California and everyone asked me if I was going to eat an edible or psychedelics. That wasn't the plan. No disrespect to how people live, but I found it odd that the notion of just being in nature seemed like a foreign concept to people.

Lord help me. I’m trying to write a thing for my newsletter, and it’s starting to get the cadence of a staccato LinkedIn manifesto.

Writing a novel is like Mario 3.
The first levels are pretty easy.
And then it gets REAL.
