It’s Apple Event Day!

After seeing the amazing trailer for The Long Walk, I was trying to convince my kids to read it as it is one of my favorite stories. I grabbed my copy of The Bachman Books and flipped through it and noticed this on the title page for The Running Man.

@stephenking.bsky.social was very prescient.

I love libraries. As a latchkey kid I basically grew up in my local library. As an adult, finding my books in the library is how I knew I had made it as a writer. Please use and support your local library, they're incredibly important to your community and to the country.

A thing I was told and now tell those without kids as it’s so true: “You do all your best parenting before you have kids.”

If you’re here you’re family

No. I’m stuck in the blue skies forever.

Musical whiplash in this airport Chili’s. Baby Got Back into Lovefool.

This is a shameful time in our history.

ALL of this anti-trans panic is manufactured by a group of legislators and creeps who are having ACTUAL sexual scandals every single day.

They want a distraction and they don't care who gets hurt.

To hell with them.

I stand with Trans folk 100%.

They look like a tiny work crew. Like they’ve committed daycare crimes.

Screenshot showing a 365 day streak for the NYT crossword.

Some work friends got me into the NYT mini crosswords in late 2019. After awhile I started playing the daily crossword as well.

Tonight I completed one full year of finishing it before the end of the day it’s for. (For those that don’t know, the next day’s crossword is released the evening before.)

What did I miss?
