I just recorded and uploaded an audiobook version of my short story Four Cats And A Life Improved!

A lightly fictionalized story about four very real cats and the life they helped save.

My first YouTube video since 2017! Please enjoy!

Min kone er veldig god til å kjøpe kule gaver til meg. Jeg er dårligere på å skaffe gode til henne. Er det noen som har bok 1 og 7 av Drapet på Aurora Lindkvist og vil selge de for noen hundrelapper via Vipps? Finner de som lydbok til 400kr hver bare...
Bok 2-6 og 8-12 av en serie som heter Drapet på Aurora Lindkvist. Tror det er en bokklubbserie eller noe fra sent 00-tallet.

Enshittified is not a strong enough word for the experience of using Facebook in 2025.

Hadde masse nervøs energi så bestemte meg for å brøyte for hånd, det tok ca 35 minutter mot 7-8 med ATV! Ikke verst!

Var ute med Ravn klokken 230, 0300, og klokken 730, vanlig morgentur, og han virker til å være sur på meg som om det er min skyld at han har diare i stedet for takknemlig at jeg går ut med han. 😭😭😭😭😭

I have the opposite of what everyone else has, whenever I watch TV I can't stop thinking about how I'd rather be reading a book.

Gikk tur med Ravn kl 12, og så la jeg meg på sofaen i 10 sekunder før jeg skulle dusje og så var klokka over 15. Lenge siden jeg har sovet så lenge nå, ca siden vi fikk hunden for sju uker siden lizm! Men har følt meg litt shabby siste par dagene så kanskje det trengtes!

They should do an SVU where like a guy does the SVU thing while wearing a condom then putting the semen of a guy he wants to frame that he got from a sperm bank or something and everyone thinks it's the other guy but he swears he's innocent and then they figure out the semen has been frozen.

Lucky enough to have a copy of this in my bookshelf, rediscovered while unpacking some old boxes recently, planning to reread again soon!

my novel VEINS is now available at drewtoothpaste.com and i'm including some excerpts here. it downloads as a PDF and it's $4.99
Veins by DREW I started doing slogans when I was 18. That's just a phrase you say to advertise someone's company. They're free to make, but they're worth a lot if you get the right one. For example, "It's cold. It's dessert. We call it ice cream." That works for any ice cream company. Or you can make a specific slogan like "Take a bite out of life. Apple Computer." The logo of Apple has a bite in it, so it's perfect. Every company needs a slogan so you remember them. Even regular things like lamps need a slogan. A lot of people probably think lamps are no big deal, but wait until it gets dark outside. Then you really appreciate them. A hundred years ago when it got dark, we would just have to go to bed, but not now. "Thanks, Lamps." That's a lamp slogan. "Don't live half your life in the shadows." That's another one they could use. In Finland, they only have sun half of the year, and they get depressed. It can happen to anyone. Companies like Apple or lamp companies can afford to spend money on slogans, because it's all profit. You don't need anything special to make a lamp. All you need is a lightbulb and a dream. Put quotes around that, because it's another great slogan. Bug spray is really expensive, so I tried to catch some spiders and put them in my apartment, to be natural predators. I only got 6 spiders, and after I put them under my bed, all they did was make spiderwebs. I had to pull all the spiderwebs I found (they are gross and make your apartment look dirty) but they kept making more every day. I got tired of pulling them, so I squashed the spiders I could find and looked on the internet to find other predators. When I searched online it said the main predator of bugs was lizards, but I didn't want to get them. Lizardwebs would be even worse (because they are bigger than spiders) and I didn't want to be sitting at home and have them stare at me with their dead eyes. You don't know if they are going to just snap and bite you, or s---- on your bed, because they don't have eyebrows, or emotions. I still don't like swimming. When I drive by the water park I start feeling nervous like someone's going to yell at me. They'll take my glasses, and they'll put me on the slide, and when I get to the bottom I can't find my glasses, and I'm cold, and my skin is poisoned. Swimming for me is like going to a store, and as soon as you walk in, they put a blindfold on you and spray Raid. Then, when you get back home, everyone tells you "I love that store."

The way #TheMorningShow envisions Bradley traveling to Belarus is how I imagine traveling to the USA.

Er med kona på julebord. Trubaduren begynte å spille Status fucking Quo Rocking All Over The World og ropte at vi måtte bli med på refrenget fordi "alle kan den!" Så svært tydelig på 20åringene som sitter til min høyre at de ALDRI hadde hørt den før. Selvfølgelig. Herre faen.

A giant print of this used to hang on my wall but has since been relegated to sitting in the basement because it's more of a bachelor pad print 😈

stop hitting yourself
And the angel said to him, Stop hitting yourself! But he could not stop, for the angel was hitting him, with his own hands.

Vi kjøpte en ATV for å brøyte gårdsplass og vei når vi flytta på landet i år, og jeg har gått å gruet meg i mange måneder, men nå kom snøen og det var faktisk lettere, kjappere og tilnærmet gøy å brøyte med ATV! Forbehold om verre snøtype og mengde senere da!

Fy faen 😭 Fikk seriøst vondt i magen pga angst enkelte deler av denne boka, og innså etterhvert hvor mye av meg selv det var i hovedpersonen. Ikke i form av traumer, men i personlighet og depresjon. Jeg har selv hatt det fint i snart 6 år nå, men ja. Fy fan #lesesky
Storygraph screenshot of an update of me reviewing Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman and giving it 5 stars. It destroyed me.

I know a lot of people are skeptical of Taylor Lorenz but I thought this video was really excellent! And very sad about Sydney Sweeney, I used to be a big fan for two giant reasons, but she seems to be having a hard time and making bad stuff!

I've actually gotten around to the idea that #TwinPeaks is just qualityslop. The only reason I like it is because it's the greatest thing I've ever seen.

Watching TV for the first time in a week and only thinking how I'd rather be reading a book. Very different from a few years ago when I couldn't read and only watched TV!!

Gotta be a decade since I watched Gone Girl and I don't really remember it, but I've had the book in my shelf for three years I guess because it was supposed to be good, but guys, it's SO GOOD!

I sat down and wrote something for the first time in three months! Some updates about things published (a new short story, an audiobook), future things to come (I'm writing my book next!) and real time processing that I'm gonna stop caring so much about sport
