Such a ridiculously stacked cast

I love it when directors can just sort of casually
call up randos for cameos

It’s very ill will adjacent

I have a new story in this one👇👇

Sesame Street: That's About the Size YouTube video by Sesame Street

Serious question:

Am I just old? (61M)

Or did things actually used to be better?

He made the right choice.

Post surgery blues:

You gave me the best present! Thank you!

I hope you enjoyed the cookies and milk I left out for you.

The problem is that U2 became so irrelevant after the iTunes debacle that I don't think anyone's actually heard one of their songs (good or bad) in 25+ years...

i spent all goddamn day yesterday at the emergency vet with our cat cocoa (she’s fine) but i knew from experience that i was gonna be there all goddamn day, so i acted accordingly and brought a book. the book i brought? one of us by dan chaon, and IT FUCKING RIPS. what a great book. it’s about a pair of orphaned mind-reading killer twins in the 1910s who join a traveling carnival, and that’s all i’m gonna say.

I am pleased to learn that Sam Irby likes my novel

Good luck!
