Also a category that includes his mother, paternal grandparents, and two of his three wives. But of course that's different, because neither he nor de facto President Miller actually care about immigration as such. They care about racism, and it's a farce to concede the pretense it's anything else.
Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”
As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

Books have always mattered. Only the imagination can challenge the fatalist mindset of capitalist realism. Only the impossible has the power to battle what power wants us to accept as the given. (I’m probably not making sense but yes books matter so much and always)
We can’t fix this world but we can put more books in it. To a lot of people that doesn’t matter but often it’s the things that people think don’t matter that are the most meaningful. I don’t know.

a game can be structurally risky (and if you doubt that, imagine my new larp "lets stab each other for real with knives") but this can be ok as lomg as everyone can consent and they have the tools they need to navigate that risk

on the one hand language follows usage and policing it is futile and on the other hand I believe this p strongly & have a similar schtick about calling one’s work “content”
Said it before but the worse things get it bears repeating. You are not a ‘creative’ or a ‘maker.’ You’re an artist, & if you choose to distinguish, a playwright, painter, whatever. These words have a lineage, they mean something. They’re politically important. Take responsibility.

The main thing I learned is that in order to write a book, you have to write a book and there's nothing that's going to prepare you for writing a book until you write a book so you should write a book

To expand a bit:
There's a whole culture of noise around writing - cover reveals, giveaways, courting bookstagrammers, launches, awards lists, promo art - and none of it moves the needle more than a fraction.
You know who gets attention?
People who are already successful.
Just write.

I think the best thing a writer can do for their career is to keep reading and keep writing.
And do it for themselves, for the joy they get from their own stories.
All the rest is just spilled glitter posing as starlight.
