A #NationalComingOutDay thread! When I was 13, I began collecting pictures of hot men that I found on AOL. I kept them on my family's computer, in a file called "downloads" I thought no one looked at, and I labeled them with the one word I knew to describe hot men: beefcake.

this is an important part of my process (having an idea after two glasses of wine, spending a year writing it, then realizing the idea I had after two glasses of wine was in fact very bad )!
.@GrantGinder has maybe done the best @nytimesbooks "By the Book" interview I've ever read.
Sampling: "For me, 85 percent of being a writer is learning the hard way that the great idea I had after two glasses of wine is not, in fact, a great idea."

We are witnessing a murder at The Washington Post. This massacre will be the enduring legacy of Jeff Bezos and Will Lewis and the leadership who stood by.
But please read my love letter to the paper that felt like home, and will always be my “we.” ❤️‍🩹theatlantic.com/politics/202…

New York is AMAZING because sometimes it takes you one train ride to get home and sometimes it takes you four train rides, one bus ride, and a 25 minute walk in sub-freezing temperatures to get home.

the ice caps will melt, the oceans will rise, civilizations will crumble, and my mother will still be asking me if she can wear jeans to a restaurant in New York.

I am taking a brief break from my gay hockey show to thank @PublishersWkly for calling SO OLD, SO YOUNG "a triumph" in this very generous review! publishersweekly.com/9781668…

the thing i love most about the gay hockey show is its elegant and surprising structure, which is: gay sex, time jump, gay sex, time jump, quick talk with an overbearing mother, gay sex, time jump.

How's this for hell: I'm currently on a plane from JFK to Seattle. The man behind me has been eating Doritos very loudly since we took off from what seems be a magical, bottomless bag. Meanwhile, my left AirPod, for reasons inexplicable, did not charge, leaving me defenseless.
