Semi-professional knitwear model. Believable Fetterman body double. Purveyor of lovingly handcrafted artisan sarcasm and half-baked absurdity.

@dietz_meredith There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who buy pens by the box, and those who steal pens from those who buy pens by the box. And now we know which kind you are.

Who would win in a rap battle between Margaret Thatcher and Winston Churchill? Assuming we have a time machine and get both of them at their prime, whatever you consider their prime to be.

I don't know everything, but I aspire to.

Do you ever feel like you're living through the long slog at the end of a Monopoly game where everyone knows damn well who's gonna win but you've got to let them bleed everyone else dry over about 100 more turns?

4 of 5 stars to Just Kids by Patti Smith https://t.co/5mZqDanQH9

We get good stuff - the best stuff - when there's both push from gatecrashers and pull from gatekeepers. Both are important. 5/5

[S. Rutledge @ionictonic]

The development of culture through history is the result of a dialectical struggle between the gatekeepers and the gatecrashers. 1/5

[S. Rutledge @ionictonic]

The alternative to gatekeepers are algorithms (blech) or sorting through all the self-published nonsense in the Kindle store myself (double blech). 4/5

@emilynussbaum @TheHell_Podcast "Reflexive self-protective pre-emptive contempt is a dead end."

Once again, louder, for the people in the back.

They said that every man must have a code that he lives by. Mine is "Asparagus season is short; eat asparagus every day."
