biggest regret of my 20s:
when my spoken word friends quit poetry cos they decided it was cringe & I didn’t & they were like “hey remember when we were young and stupid and wrote about our feelings…oops sorry Steph you still do” I didn’t have the balls to say “some of us have talent”

If the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, then how come Netflix are making a 3-part documentary about me called "SLICED DEAD: The Cardiac Surgeon Who F**ked Up A Bunch"?

Makes me sad re-reading this amazing letter from ex-Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox sent to high school seniors in 1994 after they asked him “What should Americans learn from Watergate?” 20 years later in ‘94.
His answer is remarkable—unfortunately things didn’t work out so well in 2024.

Despite the obvious flaws i think I had a decent time at this year’s Singapore writers fest?
But it was also the first festival where I actually walked out of an event in a rage.

I was on a menswear forum with Michael Anton for many years. If you plan to work in the Trump White House and have a petty rivalry with him, let me know. I can help you say things around him that will get under his skin. @sebgorka.bsky.social

i can't get over the fact that a journalist met the woman cormac mccarthy molested when she was a teenager and then wrote an article about her (honestly amazing) life story in the style of a Cormac McCarthy, as a fan tribute.

I know afab bisexuals are single-handedly destroying queer spaces by bringing their straight partners there but the last time mine came to a drag show someone thought he was the dad of one of the drag kings
so if u hate bisexuals in queer spaces ur also hating some queer kid’s supportive father

I'm going to rewatch Everything Everywhere All at Once so I can laugh and cry at the same time and then laugh again that I'm crying over an emotional story about a raccoon piloting a man at a teppanyaki restaurant 🦝
