One of the things I love most about my wife is that she regularly buys me new John le Carre novels.

Follow this up with The Road by Cormac McCarthy, a nice glass of Sangria, and a bubble bath. There is no better combination on Earth.

When I was 13 I was reading the Left Behind book series. A transformer blew next to my house. All I saw was fire falling from the sky. I shat my proverbial pants.

It’s weird right? Whether you’re in it or out of it the hardest part is dealing with the shit you’ve done. The only difference is the type of shit you’re upset about.

Ooof, this one sits on my chest like an elephant. I was a counselor and a couple times a speaker at Christian camp. One of the hardest parts of deconstructing isn’t how I was impacted it’s dealing with how I impacted others.

Brendan Fraser is now and forever will be a goddamn national treasure. Nick Cage should be stealing him out of a museum.

Btw, your work on Star Trek has brought me immeasurable joy.

George, are you suggesting that the same conservative movement that supported apartheid, segregation and red lining would still be motivated by race hate? I have a hard time believing that!

That’s one of the parts of pre-covid life I miss the most. Movies used to be a community event way more than they are now!

I’ll give you a golf clap and New England nod for that one. Legit made me laugh out loud.

I mean, we can always bring back forgiving everyone’s debt every 7 years. Always astounding how the faith literally about getting grace you don’t deserve went in hook line and sinker for the conservative personal responsibility myth.

If only we lived in the most productive and innovative time in human history. If only we had access to all of human history with the click of a button. Oh well, I guess I’ll prioritize tax policy towards the inevitability of me winning the lottery.
