Comedy writer and drinker. Currently working on "Beavis and Butt-head," as I was in 1995. All opinions are derived from reviews of books I didn't read.

We just learned that season 4 of the Beavis and Butthead reboot premieres on Comedy Central (which still exists) on Oct. 14th (scheduled to exist). I think it's our best season. Sam and I wrote one where B&B get lost in the woods and start their own civilization. But there's even dumber ones too!

Among the many things 9/11 can be is a reminder that Trump's monstrosities should not make us forget the malice, dishonesty, incompetence, and destructiveness of the Bush Administration, which gave us two evil wars and ICE along with a crackdown on civil liberties.

"In part due to the eagerness of booksellers to use their space in service to their community, the influence of bookstores is growing... Everyone seems to know doomscrolling has flattened everything + they know they’re overwhelmed. They come in bc they want the full spectrum of their brains back."

I didn’t hear the Pirates complaining when the Dodgers investing to build a dynasty created the biggest revenue stream the sport has ever seen, trickling the revenue down to make Pittsburgh one of the most profitable teams in the league while losing 90+ games every year 🤷‍♂️

Went to see the Hadestown movie yesterday. We liked it, but the highlight was Orpheus turning around and a teen girl behind us exclaiming, "Oh no!"
