I'm so glad. Thank you for reading and laughing. I just read your post about Twitter in the old days when it was filled with more funny people than angry pundits - you did a beautiful job of bringing together some classy humor.

This is excellent. Can't believe my Fort Greene caught a stray, but okay.

So many good lines but esp dug this one: "Entirely conceal all of your intrinsic imperfections, embarrassing ticks, and alarming kinks in order to present to the singles market a completely unsustainable version of yourself that you believe will be attractive to the people who you think you should be attracted to but are not."

Keep going/bravo.

Thank you so much for reading and for the kind words. I love your piece, "The Creativity Faucet" - I live this every single time I write. You're way too handsome to live in Ft Greene btw - you should probably move to Nolita and grow a manbun.

Manbun? Now I feel like you’re mocking me. The handsome Nolita manbun is the natural enemy of the balding Brooklyn Jew.

The manbun is the natural enemy of absolutely anyone and anything that does not have a manbun other than a Tulum-based wellness influencer, but you can't tell me a manbun wouldn't look totally correct on your head in that grainy-moody black & white profile photo of you in that mock turtle flanked by peacoat lapels. Just AI it into your photo - I bet your open rate would go up by 2%.
