@edgarrmcgregor Agree… The most courteous possible response is boredom. Such a lack of imagination on their part. Nothing more boring than people that love to basically marinate in the problem.

@NicoleBdorf Amazing drawing! Love your son’s interest in RAM… great movie - so glad you all liked it. Happy to hear he’s into the vinyl. That’s super moving. Following you because of this! 🎶 My husband’s band did a really cool RAM tribute in NY once and that woke me up to its genius.

@marykarrlit This is inspiring! Motivating! Yes, ass to chair, as I tell my students … in professional terms (though that may be the professional term!)

You don’t weigh a pig to make it fatter. But on 12 days of 14, I ginned out 35 unfinished #memoir pgs. Goal: 500 words/day, avg 721. Worst: under 250. Best: over 1300. Had a streak of 2 bad days+1 awful, followed by great+good. #Writing is only application of ass to chair.

Everyone wants to shit on Pam Bondi but I know when I was molested the only thing that calmed me down was hearing about how the futures were doing.

@BeschlossDC Cheese and crackers for dessert! Love it. I’m a fan of a savory dessert… And cheese really anytime.

@Todd_Spence I lost my breath, laughing at this so hard! Thank you so much for sharing this. OMG is she brilliant here. I think you can see Larry almost breaking from how funny she is.

Catherine O'Hara as Marty Funkhouser's mentally unstable sister "Bam Bam" has to be one of her all-time great characters 😂

Today was trash pickup day 2,352. It is no secret my trash pickup routine has been a wreck since all my parks burned down. My 2026 New Year's resolution is to be 100% consistent again. Here is to day 1 of my next streak. Record max streak is 402 days.

@Gabino_Iglesias Needed to hear that. Some similar roughness with some similar dropped balls…. Thank you and happy to meet you here. Let’s write.

For me, 2025 was a dark year. Rough, heavy with anger, loss, grief. I lost gigs, failed to finish the novel, dropped the ball teaching. The few good times—Spain, seeing good people, writing, a few wins—came from doing the work. So yeah, 2026 is all about the work. Let’s write.

@seanonolennon @nypost I watched every word of this, and it was an excellent interview, Sean. Your intention was fully clear, the context was fully clear. All of it was spot on! Thanks for all your great work on your own behalf and on behalf of your parents 🎶

A lot of people especially @nypost tried to twist my words from the CBS thing. I am not immediately worried about anyone forgetting the Beatles. I was speaking more broadly about culture in general, and how we do forget about things when we don’t actively work to preserve them. For example everyone used to know Don Giovani but now Opera Houses having been closing all over the world en masse. Everyone used to be able to quote Shakespeare and now not so much. The Beatles music is timeless and immortal in my view. But nothing is guaranteed and we have to choose what aspects of our culture to keep thriving for future generations. Here’s the full interview for more context: youtu.be/dlA8KPYo65o?si…
