Dentists have a suicide rate that’s double that of the general public. In fact, dentists have the highest suicide rate of any profession that involves making holes and filling them back up.

My gym is inside my city’s community center. I realized today as I was passing through their lobby how, even with no one inside, you’d be able to tell the majority of paying members are seniors: That sign advertising for a class called “Tai Chi for Pickleball.”

A Philadelphia nun named Sister Rose Kuhn drives to a Texas immigration court weekly to sit next to unaccompanied children as young as 4 who are facing deportation hearings alone without relatives or an attorney so that they won’t have to face the judge by themselves. Heartbreaking and horrific.

What blew me away about this novel was in spite of every character being horribly broken, I found myself identifying with each of them. I understood why Franzen has been called a modern Tolstoy. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Jonathan Franzen’s “The Corrections” Is 25 Years Old. Its First Paragraph Still Feels New.
Jonathan Franzen’s 2001 novel was celebrated for its canny portrayal of American life. It’s also a remarkable act of literary creation.

In the TikTok era, apps are emerging where you can watch a movie in 90-second installments. I want in.  I plan to produce one that’s a remake of “The Graduate.” I’m imagining that scene at the pool, where the uncle gives business advice. He says, “One word: Microplastics.”

It’s a modern stereotype that the generation coming up uses Doordash more than their kitchen. But it comes with a grain of truth. So with Doordash, Postmates and rideshares so popular, it is no longer correct to say Assisted Living is limited to the elderly.

Stephen King clearly loves writing. But even an artist of his level of output can burn out, and I can prove it. His novel “It” is 1,138 pages hardcover. By that last page he was clearly wrung out like a dishrag. WHAT?!? Now think of a title?!? Screw it: The shortest, vaguest in publishing history.
