I read "3 Days, 9 Months, 27years" by @scalzi.com last night. Loved it! ...but I woke up in the middle of the night with the song Time Warp stuck in my head Which is not a bad thing - I've just never had such a thematically pure earworm before 🤷‍♀️

I'm sometimes amazed that people still remember that glorious time in 2020 when I became the second-most famous Erin O'Toole in Canada... But I had a fantastic time talking about it for this awesome story! And YES 🇺🇸♥️🇨🇦 forever.

1/2 NEW: I speak to Erin O'Toole (the radio host) and Jason Kenney (the digital strategist) about Bill de Blasio (the wine importer) and the perils of mistaken political identity in this week's most "extremely online" story ⬇️

To those of you who accomplished things today, I salute you. It can be hard to be productive in….such times. When you are, give yourself credit. It’s a form of resistance against the seeming hopelessness of the present. It means you haven’t given up. And we can’t.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.
