William Todd Schultz

My mom told me "if you're bored, it's your fault," but I've never been this bored before

@scrap_icon for me it was the hair brush

When I was a kid my parents would make me pick out a tree branch or a belt to be spanked with, which I thought was up there on the redneck corporal punishment scale, but then I dated a guy who casually mentioned that he was regularly paddled by his principal in high school

Just finished. This is like if a book was written by a genius on mushrooms.

Inaction is the beginning of that kind of knowledge which has as its final end the realization that no action is necessary (DeLillo)

A liar thinks everyone lies

Life is a long tortuous effort to replace or refind the nipple

@W4ttb0f21 ditto

How many times can the same thing be obliterated?

My daughter's bf Ajon Singh wrote the script for this and it's a total banger. This movie: absolutely killer. Coming in the Fall

@snjeriwambugu They never see it coming either

One of the most fascinating and frightening things is watching a woman with BPD select her newest Target™️

@xbabydollriottx thank you love

@WTSchultz Very brave Todd thank you for this deep beautiful and complex conversation. It’s important. 🤍

I don't love talking about my early life or my fucked up family but it all came out in this podcast on the cost of telling the truth. youtube.com/watch?v=0NxlpY…

80% of classic rock is some anxiously attached dude singing “how am I supposed to live without you”

@becimay ♥️🌹

Where I’m sleeping tonight ❤️

@_evaweht love that film, had dinner with Tatum once!

@herandrews unfortunately, in fact she never discovered what she had gotten into; she allowed no discussion of her choices and she locked into a path (and a man) with never-ending adolescent ferocity

Julienne Busic’s memoir “Lovers and Madmen: A True Story of Passion, Politics, and Air Piracy” is a fascinating document, deserving its place among memoirs by nice American (or English) girls who marry foreign radicals and discover over a lifetime what they’ve gotten into.

@herandrews @SergeantClub As a teenager she fell absurdly in love with a dark stranger and clamped onto him and his cause for the entirety of her life. Fundamentally a sad story. I’m her brother (Busic)

I recommend the rather odd memoir of Julienne Busic, who hijacked a plane in 1976 with her husband Zvonko Busic in the name of Croatian independence, as an example of how this revolutionary impulse in women can be channeled into the strangest causes. (She had no connection to Yugoslavia apart from her husband.)

If I told you this woman was caught trying to blow up the Statue of Liberty with dynamite in 1965, could you guess in the name of what cause she was acting?

My sweet student Subeen drew this for me. Me as “candied tarantula” lol
