Like most teens, my Twitter experience has turned sullen and disillusioned. My feed was full of smart and interesting people, and now it feels designed to make me like people less. I don't need it to change, but then I don't need it at all. #MyTwitterAnniversary
@JGrybowski@jefflevy "45 minutes early is on time" is Orwellian logic and I don't want my brain to work that way. Air travel is broken. In 20 years, they've given us personal screens and bad wifi, while they run the least efficient, predictable and enjoyable service I can think of.
@wisekaren I love a good footnote. I get why people don't like them, but snack-sized packages of interest just outside the narrative flow? A perfect way to keep readers going through longer stretches of prose - especially the ADHD set. https://t.co/zLkAACKei5
@kairyssdal I want to know how fractured each state's beer market is. I want to see how important the megabeers are, how popular local beers are, and how new labels fare in their first couple of years. I can't be mad Bud beats the best of the 10k. Distribution wins.
@ThatBootlegGuy I would have hit her with some Nietzsche "will to power," with a sprinkling of post-Marx money as an alienation of power followed by, I donno, Simone de Beauvoir, objectification. Not make it better, but let her know I'm already in that mess. She didn't put me there.
@ThatBootlegGuy This tweet made me wonder if I missed the Oscars this year. Not yet. In this streamy age, they need a host that makes it less about those in the room, and makes them part of the appeal to the home audience with the message "this work was great and it matters."
The Princess Bride: a grampa reads his sick grandson a book about a pirate reuniting with his ex before she gets married. This was before COVID. #DescribeAMovieBadly
