I started drinking hot tea every night to help with my anxiety and rage. Now I’m anxious, angry, and addicted to Twinings Mango & Pineapple.

Happy October. I have a book out this month, which means my wife and kids are contractually obligated to refer to me as “Matthew Norman, the world’s greatest living novelist.”

I like to leave my daughter’s student driver sticker on the back of the car when I’m alone and just really let’r rip.

When I was a kid I thought I’d grow up to have multiple Ferraris. I currently have zero Ferraris.

I know we have bigger problems than this, but as a country we need to come together and figure out the difference between everyday and every day.

I’m not saying I’m the world’s greatest living novelist. I am, however, saying I’m the greatest living novelist currently in this Applebee’s. (I looked around to make sure.) #booksky 📚 💙

Does it count as “ Party Size” if I eat all the Doritos myself while doom scrolling?

I beat my daughter convincingly at mini golf tonight but I was totally cool about it and didn’t play the putter guitar or anything. ⛳️ 🎸

I’m on a trip with my 15yo daughter and she keeps calling me bro. It’s sweet? Adorable? Insulting? I dunno.

A “Super Size Me”-like documentary but it’s just me eating açaí bowls with my daughters and rolling my eyes the whole time. “But isn’t it great, dad?!”

At dinner with my wife and daughters last night I floated the idea that perhaps Oasis has a moral obligation to be together based on all the joy they’re creating. Nobody responded. Then I realized my entire family was actively ignoring me. 🎸 #dadlife

People are always talking about going outside. Do they have any idea how many bugs are out there?

I watched the movie Sinners last night and it was so wild and exciting. I love when an artist just freaking goes for it.

I’m in NYC for a Mets game but the game got postponed. What should I do instead? (I’m also accepting wrong answers.)

Men’s Health should do a feature on dudes in their 40s who are just kinda mid. How do I do it? 3 half-assed workouts a week and I try to pump the brakes a little when it comes to chocolate chip cookies. #fitness

The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

A bear has been spotted in the northern Baltimore suburbs a few times recently and now I’m probably going to have to write some damn novel about it. 🐻 📚 💙 #booksky
