I truly believe that in 2025 8/10 people who say the words “nervous system” at least three times a day do not know what it really means, myself included.

Supporting Bari Weiss as a queer person is like being a log cabin republican during the aids crisis. Same fucking deal. A writer I admired was just posting on FB about how much she loves BW and like, you lived through the 80s as a dyke wtf is wrong with people

Anyway I’m gearing up to shut it all down and see what happens re: career and mental health.

With the exception of the Twitter Best Years, when I actually got TV jobs and press bc of my jokes/follower count, I think that I might sell more books without social media. I don’t think I have the kind of personality that makes social media a sales tool, beyond like, 13 other similar weirdos.

ok, hear me out: in quebec a shirley temple is 7up with cherry flavor in it. So the new cherry 7ups really hit that same spot.

No. But also my book had an American publisher.

Does anyone else get the error message when you go to file your claim with the Anthropic lawsuit? I entered all the correct information.

It wasn’t cumbersome. It was direct and easy to understand. The new website is full of jargon that makes no sense for the working artists it claims to want to help.

I’ve been applying for grants for twenty years. I just need to know where the application for writers is on the website.

I’m just a girl looking at the new Canada Council portal that is finally up and running and trying to find grants for writers. They appear … not to exist.

just FYI, Scriptnotes just sent me 81 emails.

I listened to maybe 8 mins of him on Neal Brennan’s podcast and felt like oh no my brain is dissolving.

They literally have the gay black character’s boyfriend get shot. They’re setting it up so even liberal watchers are like yeah bring in the military.

Ok I am 5 minutes into the new Chicago Fire episode and it’s seems 100% like propaganda to justify Trump bringing the troops in to the city to “fight crime”.

I am so happy to find someone who is also watching it!!

but is it a red herring? My other hunch is that it's actually Tom, paying someone in prison from the dark hearts to keep his son alive bc they know he's the son of a cop.

Klein is also obsessed with solving Democrats’ “condescension problem” but it’s not condescending to talk about how your political opponents are wrong! That’s kind of how it works.

This was revealing. Worth reading. The basic demand is that Coates spend less time thinking/writing his true feelings and more time playing political strategist. Klein asks him over and over him to do Dem strategy; he says no, over and over. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/28/o...
