Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

I made a lot of progress on a project this week and I’m very excited about it. Everything may be garbage still (for us all), but at least my creative brain still has some life left in it despite the absolute mess the past 8 years have been.

Your April Fools' Day Reminder that trickle-down economics is the greatest trick of all. It's nothing more than a cruel hoax designed to enrich corporations and the super-rich at your expense. Don't fall for it.

True crime thoughts: it’s weird to me that police often look at the position of the driver’s seat of a car and say, “She couldn’t have been driving this car. The seat is too far back.” I’m 5’2”and drive with my seat nearly all the way back. When I inevitably vanish, the police will be stumped.

I feel like boomers think about how good they had it and take credit for it. And they made a point of hoarding that good. But as a millennial, it’s been pretty horrific to have a glimpse of how much better a lot things used to be as well as an acute awareness of the decline.

@sarahkendzior.bsky.social I annoyed my wife this morning while watching “Scariest House in America” — there’s a home in St Louis (Bissell Mansion?) and I was compelled to tell her everything I’ve learned about the city from your writing.

Sometimes I think about a man I worked with 13+ years ago on a single project that didn’t go well. In a moment of frustration he exclaimed, “This whole thing is in the fucker.” He probably meant “in the shitter”? Either way, he’s a legend. Also, we all live in the fucker now.

if you only believe in something when it applies to someone you like then you don't actually believe in it.

The opening of Sarah Schulman’s brilliant novel MAGGIE TERRY, relevant still/again.
“Everyone was in a state of confusion because the president was insane. No one knew if a strategy drove the chaos, or if he was simply mad. The wide range of elected officials in charge of protecting the people was inadequate to the task. The system had created their status and yet that system no longer existed. But they were too complicit to go rogue.” —Sarah Schulman, MAGGIE TERRY
