This newsletter is sometimes about work, and sometimes about libraries, and also sometimes about writing, and also sometimes about music, and there is sometimes politics yelling. Love, the nailbiter...

I’m setting up a newsletter on @buttondown.com. I would like to do more long form writing and I don’t have the capacity for pitching. There are gonna be some essays about bad management and about writing and about my load bearing grudges. It’s called love, the nailbiter. buttondown.com/loather

I think at some level they just don't care. The kleptocracy faction is focused on extracting rents from control over the government. The fascist faction has decided ethnic cleansing and restoring (idealized) 19th century gender and racial hierarchies is worth being poorer and less influential.

I just learned that Jamie Campbell Bower narrates an erotic audiobook on an erotic audiobook app. Learning there’s an erotic audiobook specific app is quite a journey. Do you think I could crowdfund whatever that app costs

Goodnight, sweet prince.
Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

I posit that fairytale of New York could easily be a new year’s song (snow, bitterness) but otherwise no other holiday would work; it lives solely within the winter arcana

Seb Vettel asked a bunch if F1 drivers to draw pictures of trees because he's working on protecting the rain forest. All the guys drew cute little trees. Then Lewis Hamilton shows up on some other shit. I wasn't ready.

All my life the media has been introducing various right wing horror show people and then trying to rehab them as "open to debate." I'm all stocked up. thanks

this is the kind of thinking you wind up with when you hit yourself in the forehead with a nailgun. You think you're making logical points, but everyone can see the nail sticking out of your frontal lobe and they're all very worried
And if you refuse to give someone credit for standing for liberal democracy just because they don’t agree with your policy preferences, you’re missing the big picture. www.thebulwark.com/p/why-marjor...
