I’d just like to point out that I coined “wine moms.”

BREAKING NEWS: The Minneapolis poet laureate has been named. Arlo Moonbeam is a barista in Minneapolis with an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. His inaugural poem, “Minneapolis, Rise Up,” has been leaked to the press. Unbelievable.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

I dig it.

Thank you for being polite as they try to share something that's changed their lives for the better. I've always found my Catholic brothers and sisters to be exceedingly kind to our young missionaries.

Next time, offer them a soda and tell them a fun story. My son is one of those kids in Chile right now and the amount of rejection they get on an hourly basis is amazing.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

Do I want them to succeed? No. But they’re literally walking around talking about God. I don’t do that.

Two good young men stopped by on their Mormon mission as I was reading on the porch today. White button downs, name tags. I said, “I love what you guys are doing, but, I’m Catholic.” The one kid says, “So no chance?” I just winked.

@sir_squatchalot Pork roll.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

My dad would always introduce my son by saying, “This is my grandson, Charlie Marcus from Brooklyn,” as if he was mob connected. But it’s funny, even after 3 years in West Virginia, he is absolutely from Brooklyn.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

Great stuff as usual from Abe.

Honest, I swear, it’s the turnstiles that make us hostile.

@TimRiceDC “Who’s Greenberg?”

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

My favorite Kerouac story is that he would sell his fellow merchant marines love letters to send to their sweethearts. Which means somewhere in America, a treasured family heirloom is an unknown work by Jack.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

This is what makes a writer a writer. Thanks, kid.

@BlueBoxDave If you posted this anonymously I’d still know it was you. Ha

@TimRiceDC Writers gonna write and charge.

I will not cease from Mental Fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand:
Till we have built Jerusalem,
In Englands green & pleasant Land.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

The Luddites weren’t really losers. They said, we need some rules here if this is how we are going to work now. Bring me my spear of burning gold, bring me my arrows of desire.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

And was Jerusalem builded here, among these dark Satanic mills.

@CaseyMattox_ Yes, but one with more sway than most, maybe I am too. I’m always advising listening.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

If the DeSantis 2028 pitch is, “I will reign in Big Tech and not let their algorithms push communism on the taxpayer dime,” then voters will be listening.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

I’m at an age where my friends have parents who are dying. And it unlooses the world from its moorings. I lost my mom in my 20s my dad in 2019, but I tell them, after the horror fades, you still can’t get rid of them. They’re right there.

@CaseyMattox_ Gotta trust our citizens, man. They aren’t fools.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

@BeverlyHallberg The problem is we can’t keep up with technology through our laws. If I had a brick and morter store and handed out free porn to kids I’d be arrested. Online, I become a billionaire.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

I’ve talked to 100s of voters cross country about data centers, most have real trepidation. I don’t fully understand it, but it’s clear to me the real objection isn’t to quality of life, or water & electric. It’s a broader frustration at the invasiveness of tech in our lives.

[David Marcus @BlueBoxDave]

@CortesSteve Wrote about this yesterday based on interviews at my local WV county fair. Most people aren’t saying “absolutely not,” they’re saying, “are we sure we have enough regulation and local control?”

@McCormickProf There must have been down syndrome people in the time of Aquinas, but did the church then recognize it?
