There was an interview Claire Dederer did last year and she talked about how she basically refuses all media requests tied to MeToo/“Monsters” now bc she doesn’t want to be that “expert” and I thought this was really good. (No NPR offense intended, obviously!)

I didn't write this to be a Halloween piece, but honestly, what could be scarier than an unmarried childless middle-aged woman writing about herself? carigervin.substack.com/p/alison-rose
![Only gradually is it made clear that the author must be about 60 years old. Though points go to Ms. Rose for waiting (unlike so many media ingénue darlings) until she had actually lived a good portion [of] her life before writing about it, the air of the ingénue clings confusingly, like faint cologne, to her writing.
Savage lines penned by writers then nowhere near 50 — lines that my twentysomething self would have probably delighted in reading. How embarrassing to be 60! How cringe to be old and still concerned with matters of the heart!](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2tyt3udgdzyebkg7ml4ogtn2/bafkreig5o7fpbfp5fvwyju54dpw75vodda4c4x4ozic3xbaqcxrjmiq6vq@jpeg)

Dressed the little dog up for Halloween and took him to meet some teens tonight and everyone had a great time but the dog wouldn’t stand still for a good photo. Anyway, meet Pizzo, just for one night only!

Happy Gotcha Day to Stagger Lee, who‘s a whole lot bigger than the day I brought him home four years ago but just as goofy and sweet.

Ok, I did it. I asked one of the “I want a girl fluent in sarcasm“ guys why he wants that. And I’m more confused than ever.

Look, I know I have an unworn brand-new Alex Mill trench sitting in my closet, just waiting for it to finally be cold enough to wear a trench, but just look at this Gap x Sandy Liang trench! It's so cute!
