Great piece today at McSweeney’s. Remind me: Skewering Bezos has always been cool 👌

Best I can do

Such a fun one to write and continually, shamelessly self-promote all week long.

A late night fever dream turns into a loud commentary on this week's media-related news. Plus, who doesn't love The Muppets?

Battle Masters! And HeroQuest, though I consider that a board game.

Is this an alternate or British market cover or something? Both the Lone Wolf and Legends Of Lone Wolf covers looked nothing like this! (in the States)

Risky move for this liberal-minded writer, but it had to be done.

It’s time to make the donuts, America.

You're being left behind!" screams the lemming to that one brethren who didn't make the leap.

Really enjoyed getting back in touch with junior-year English me for this one.

Consistently one of the funnest @mcsweeneys.net writers over past couple years. Distinctive, side-splitting style.

Shameless self-promotion. Not really zen, but that fleeting dopamine rush is so much better than healthcare

Picture yourself. Standing in a cemetery. Doubling down on telling people that dying early from preventable causes is all part of God's great plan.

I emerge from the cold Bluesky depths to post a shameless plug.

Hearing the heavy thud of a glass juice bottle as it fell from its perch inside a Veryfine vending machine. My dad and I would get one after a swim at a nearby fitness club when I was about 3-4 years old ("swimming" is used loosely; I was placed in an inner tube harness while he did laps).

Roasted.

Many, many years ago now. But this was one of the first books to “unlock” creative writing for me. Plus, I’ve always loved @stephenking.bsky.social short stories.
