This new book tackles many of today’s biggest science questions like —How many donuts is too many donuts? What's better for you: Vaping or Smoking? Charcoal grills and gas grills both have their own benefits, but which should you use if you're drunk? And more. #books #science #pulitzer

My new book will be out soon. It’s a story that touches on several hilarious topics including, the war on science, the slow death of American journalism and gun control. #FunnyBooks #PulitzerNod #ItsAboutTime

CNN says Pentagon spending in September included $9 million on Alaskan king crab and lobster tails and more than $200 million in furniture. But they bought $0 worth of my books. 📕 😬 #ResponsibleSpending

Since I haven’t been to a major entertainment or sporting event in a while, I’ve decided to just voluntarily send some money to Ticketmaster! That only seems fair. #fairness #TicketMoney

Finally, a good 📕 bio: When he found out congressmen don’t read any of the letters they receive, Thule Taaffe decided to start writing humorous political satire. Like so many great American authors, Thule now writes for personal pleasure, and for beer money. #books #booksky #GreatAuthors

I hate to brag, but I just learned that the building where I work has been re-named “The Turner Building.” I had nothing to do with this, but I am very honored.

For me, the hardest part about writing hilarious political satires is the dedication page; but for my upcoming 📕 it’s easy— I’m dedicating it to the people of the Heard & McDonald Islands. 🐧 Those folks deserve some good news. #books #tarrific @heardislandgov.bsky.social PurpleHullPress.com

If I wanted to slap a tariff on @heardislandgov.bsky.social I would at least announce it in a national security chat group so it would stay secret.

Happy Thanksgiving. I highly recommend “Milk and Catfish” by Thule Taaffe available at Amazon. It’s about rural towns, rumors, and conspiracy theories; fast and funny read.
