Today I am officially open again for new book pitches. You will find details on how to do that on our site. I am going to do a quick thread here on some things I'd love to see in my query inbox this year.

Nuzzi, like TCW, exists as a kind of simulacrum of the midcentury public intellectual. Not even ripping off the writers of that era, but imitating a sort of half-remembered, half-invented idea of what those writers were sort of like and what their general vibe was.

i thought about this while reading that harper's piece on gooning, where these men literally eroticize the immolation of their lives. but i also thought about this while reading the olivia nuzzi piece. fundamentally there's no difference, she also eroticized her own destruction

i don't quite have the words for this thought but there's this drive among.... millennial and younger(?) people to cosplay their own self-destruction so hard they manifest it into reality. not in a cool way either. in a "the internet made me think it's cool to ruin my life" way

Internet Leftists in their elite bubbles and/or their mom's basements and/or on Bluesky just don't understand how hard it is for even the strongest alphas to hammer in a single nail!

Years later I still cannot believe that people say "woke" in all the ways they do. Pure case study in getting linguistically dog-walked by a mixture of conservatism and appropriation

we simply cannot tolerate collaborating on governance with these people. even if you go win a bunch of elections there can be no future where people like Trump or Gaetz or the movement behind them have even a minority role in it beyond rotting somewhere unseen

This man is getting done so dirty here. Do the kids REALLY like peaches? Or will they take one bite and demand a graham cracker instead? Are you sure that giving them the peach isn't just giving the dog the peach, and that everyone's gonna scream when the dog takes it? This man is keeping the peace

still thinking about how the Fox NFL booth last weekend featured a criminal conspirator who will never answer for his crimes. and then standing next to Jonathan Vilma was the president!

It's impolite to say this or act accordingly but at this point it's probably best to assume that organized college republican clubs are Hitler's Youth chapters
