Hey mom, I’m in the paper!

I wrote about the way I drive now, which is slow, for the New York Times Mag: www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/m...

Oops forgot about this place again

A line I just re-encountered: "'The world is a fine place and worth fighting for.' I agree with the second part."

Sometimes I am confused by the people of Los Angeles. Then I remember that everyone is stoned, is something I first thought to myself in 2014

I forgot this place existed, ooops

It used to be so depressing when really lazy students used Wikipedia. Now that seems so quaint

Nations clash, rulers spied, a man ate a human heart. Everyone watched a bullfight. We, aghast, furiously tried to polish a beautiful stone

If "Smooth" by Santa feat Rob Thomas was the only song you could ever hear again would you give up on music entirely or listen forever to Smooth by Santa feat Rob Thomas???

A genuine thrill in midlife in Los Angeles is moving over for a motorcycle on the freeway and having that motorcyclist lower a hand and give you a cool acknowledgment for how cool you are

I did a really hard thing

It's bad but it's gonna get so much worse

In 11 years of riding the bus in Los Angeles I’ve never seen someone read a paper copy of the New York Times. Today is that day.

Nuked our Amazon Prime and embracing the challenge of sourcing all the crap I always buy so easily

Wish I still worked at The Village Voice c. 2005

I just learned that there is a thing called a holistic dentist

Before these fuckers do something truly no turn back horrible isn’t it time for some sort of complete national strike?

The protest I was at yesterday made it onto KTLA! You can see me, bottom right, in the opening montage: www.youtube.com/watch?v=GTb2... #teslatakedown

Great protest at the Tesla dealer today! Bigger turnout and more consistent honks of support from passerby. On the way back I saw a dickhead woman with a Cybertruck parked in front of a hydrant, getting a ticket, and she was yelling at the meter maid, but everyone was cheering and it was delicious

Duterte lands at The Hague while @mariaressa.bsky.social lands the cover of @rollingstone.com. Justice is still possible in this world. #HoldTheLine

I keep thinking about The Jungle and The Octopus and the inevitable way we're on a course to go to the grocery store and all we'll have is green sausage and rat shit bread

Go to a protest at a Tesla dealership. You’ll feel better.

Sell your Tesla! I attended a protest last week and will go again tomorrow and I like yelling this at people driving them. I also have been flyering them when I spot one parked in my hood and it feels so good

Pretty grim

9. The entire myth of Musk’s genius and power is predicated on his “net worth” — which is NOT a net worth. It’s just a perception of the value of his companies. The cars already suck. Change the perception of Tesla and his market cap tanks—and eventually his “genius” and aura and power tank too.

If you’re a rich liberal who hates Elon Musk but still drive a Tesla: what are you doing? You can afford to sell at a loss and get another car. Take a fucking stand here, no matter how much you like the car.

Attended a raucous and super-satisfying anti-Tesla, anti-Musk protest in West L.A. today. So much supportive honking!!! I wore my Fuck Trump hat. Hell yeah

Tried to google the word count of On the Road.

Reminder: Email your heroes and maybe they'll write back. It's always nice to hear from someone. Don't be shy. (The guy in my case wrote back today and even said he liked my stuff, which is maybe him just being polite...)

And can you believe Brody threw his gum at that lady???

All the Federal employees should send the dumbasses the same email that basically is nonsense. A unified response to a pointless exercise

Maybe I wasn’t clear about this. I wanted more egg and no plane crash, not many plane crash and no egg.
