Today is pub day for Tell Me Yours, I’ll Tell You Mine! However much writing can be a solitary act, putting a book out definitely isn’t. Thanks to Stillhouse Press and all of Tell Me Yours’ many champions.

My first book is out now. I hope you like it.

Thanks so much to A-game for the amazing meeting with Andrew T Wang from JuVee Productions!! I loved when he asked, why is this script a part of your soul?

Maybe… if you’ve followed me on the socials for a while… you could be thinking “it used to be funnier and have less self promotion.”

And believe me, I’d love to go back to that.

But I’m about three weeks away from losing health insurance and so the hustle is 24/7. The tin cup must rattle. Sorry.

Some good news! As Trump’s “One Big 💩 Bill” barrels through Congress loaded with extreme riders, the Senate parliamentarian just struck down some of the worst, thanks to the Byrd Rule.

I find it noteworthy that financial publications like Forbes, Fortune, & Bloomberg tell the brutal truth about #COVID & climate change much more than the mainstream media does. Follow the money as they say. #ClimateSky

I hate when I go to bed early on a Saturday night and wake up Sunday morning only to discover we’ve gone to war in the Middle East without the consent of Congress. 😡

Currently my favorite distraction on TikTok is this man who is CLEARLY in like, THE BEST shape, finding things that other athletes can do (and often the things they're doing are typically femme) and seeing if he also can do that

With the "assistance" of the best dog named Dootie
