I seem to have been acquired by a cat. Her name is Ripley

Everything’s fucked up and broken but I kinda love that my local paper ran an editorial today that was basically “Willie Nelson’s cover of ‘Do You Realize??’ is really good and you should listen to it.” www.expressnews.com/opinion/edit...

Willie Nelson’s cover of ‘Do You Realize??’ is a moving tribute

As the song says, “the sun doesn’t go down, it’s just an illusion caused by the world spinning round.”

Drew Magary is an absolute treasure

Had a wonderful time tonight at the Twig for the kickoff of @christopherbrown.bsky.social’s book tour, in conversation with Jennifer Bristol. Lots of food for thought

🎵I don’t wanna grow up, I’m a🎵

And while it was inexplicably delayed, I got my copy of @mjohnharrison.bsky.social’s WISH I WAS HERE, which has been absolutely everything I had hoped it would be and more (I hadn’t expected to laugh out loud about a diabetic Elf Lord’s dream of finishing an ultra-marathon in a meta-secondary world)

Was also excited to get these in the mail this weekend. An embarrassment of literary riches this week

My copy arrived today, as did the gorgeous print-zine edition of Field Notes. Devoured the zine on sight. It’s been a great week for book mail

My new book A Natural History of Empty Lots is released today. I hope you like it—it distills 20 years of exploring the edgelands, working on rewilding projects, and trying to understand what such places teach us about our lives, history and future: www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/chris...

I wasn’t prepared to see a cybertruck driving around with a roofing company logo on it. At least we know neither the company nor the cybertruck will make it very far.
