Happy Halloween from Brooklyn. The 9 year old says he got no bad candy. I told him that was bc the candy was dispensed by Gen Xers still traumatized by the memory of circus peanuts, those weird peanut butter candies in orange and black wrappings, loose handfuls of candy corn, and dirty pennies

The most realistic villains to write are just selfish jerks.

I know critics want depth and uncomfortable relatability, but "dude just wants wealth and power, and is willing to step on others to get it" might be the most relevant to reality villains in existence.

It depends on with whom I’m speaking. Normal people get told I’m liberal. Irritating granularly political people get told I’m a democratic socialist but not a DSA member. I used to use leftist but a whole bunch of jerks ruined that for me.

I caucus with the wine moms more than the Marxists.

For my sins, I read Jeff Bezos’s self-serving op-ed, and found it mostly pretty ridiculous. But I do want to point out that Bezos himself does not adopt Will Lewis’s lie that killing the presidential endorsement wasn’t Jeff Bezos’ decision. I don’t see how Lewis can stay after that.

Hopefully voters will be able to track their ballots and if they were damaged then recast their votes. We need to count every vote.

If you’re burning ballots, you know you’ve lost.

You’re also burning the votes of fellow Americans.

You’re saying they don’t count.

They do.
We do.

I'll admit it.
Last night's hate extravaganza got to me.

But now, I'm feeling some righteous rage.
Folks, we're in this to the finish.
Let's vote and work and get this job done.

The more I think about it, the more “this country was built on hard work, not dei” about a country that wrote slavery into its constitution perfectly encapsulates the way racism and denial work hand in glove

I don't know bro, I just feel better posting here. Probably going to be here most of the time now. It just feels stress-free, even though it shouldn't feel stressful since it's posting, but it's way more chill, and sharing stuff about my book here has been working out way better too
