See, look, U.S.A., it's this easy

(and should have been done immediately upon the knowledge that these cheats and grifters were STEALING our work)

Hilarious to me that continuity is suddenly super important to the franchise.

Extraordinary.

The GOAT.

A-ha, hush that fuss.

Cover to the album “The First Days of Spring” by Noah and the Whale

“There's a hope in every new seed
And every flower that grows upon the earth.
And though I love you, and you know that,
Well I no longer know what that's worth.”

Just a reminder that I wrote an Anthony Award nominated pulp thriller that I would love for you all to read.

In 'Pluribus,' isolation is the price of a frictionless life The haunting new show from Vince Gilligan, who created Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, is set in Gilligan's now-signature location, Albuquerque.

Pluribus absolutely hums with interesting questions regarding individualism, collective goodwill, and who wins and loses with each. Rhea Seehorn gives a fierce performance.

As am I. Though no one listens to me.

Thanks, Gabino! I have a novelette included in this banger anthology, available in audio and ebook. 16 long crime stories, like an advent calendar of our worst impulses.

This novel is great.

I’m toward the end of Season 3 of The Diplomat and the Big Solution Kate Wyler dreams up for the season’s Big Problem seems so laughably ridiculous, I feel like I must be too dumb to get it.

Headline reads “Keep these 10 Athens, Georgia bars a secret”

I feel like they’re about to…not do that.

Oh hell yes.

Bet me the fainter is getting fired.

My Gen-X, Cold-War childhood just got dredged back up. I am shook anew.

If you love “The Lowdown” as much as I do, this is a must-read.

Very much so.

True mystery.

“Platinum Members Club —>”

The sporting organization known primarily for its corruption. Figures.

“I could smell the onions and mustard”

That’s some baller shit. Shoot a dude and he’s like, my bad.

Many will bring up the travesty he helped make of the Middle East. But how many remember that he shot a dude in the face with a 28-gauge and that dude eventually apologized TO HIM?

Tremendous news. Congratulations!

I didn’t know we were just welding halves of cars together and calling it an RV now. Let me know when there’s a Camry version and I’m down. A Mustang may be more power than I need in a first RV.

Man, if I wanted to see 60 Minutes lose its spine, I’d just watch “The Insider” again.

I had no idea these videos were a thing, but I could watch them all day. Well done!

Having been there myself (ours came in the mail back in the day), I can feel every bit of his nervousness and jubilation. Well done, sir.
