Everything has gone to shit, but at least we have Insomnia Club. Welcome.

What if you’re always angry but can’t turn into the Hulk, what then.

I wrote about how, at a moment where so much insane shit is happening and so many people are trying to deny it, writing it down is a radical act: https://dansinker.com/posts/2025-02-1-write-it-down/

you can still write the long-ass thing here if you want, just please for the love of god put it somewhere afterwards so that it's actually findable again.

I am begging you: if you are writing a thread of more than a couple posts, get a blog. I don’t mean this in a mean way. I mean: allow this thought to continue to exist, outside of this platform, in an actually coherent, readable format that sticks around for longer than 20 minutes. You deserve it!

Bookshop, the anti-amazon that gives $$ to local bookstores with every sale, now has ebooks. That’s a big deal: https://bookshop.org/info/ebooks

It’s been a few days and I’m not happy to be back, but welcome to Insomnia Club.

Apple’s Tim Cook might be the smartest of all of the tech oligarchs because he was there but didn’t sit in the lineup and so he’s absent from all the photographs while still just as shitty as the rest.

@evan yes there are lots, that's just the few that came off the dome

I just keep writing pithy little posts and deleting them and then writing new little jokes and deleting them and then just staring into the middle distance for a while and then trying again

As a parent of a Gen Z kid, I can tell you that their whole entire lives they’ve seen the government put them last. Guns, covid, student loans, cost-of-living, it’s always their gen that has gotten fucked.

This TikTok ban vividly reinforces what they already know.

The best time to start building a little spot for yourself on the internet independent of platforms was yesterday. The second best time is right fucking now.

@quinn I wear a Garmin and it is shit for accurate sleep tracking

@amanda @quinn no this doesn't sound right

@quinn great job!

RIP David Lynch. King of the weirdos.

Here we are, once again, welcoming you to Insomnia Club. It’s the worst club, but we’re in it together.

Sometimes I lie awake and think about these headlines and sometimes I just lie awake.

so like Trump 100% wants Greenland because the mercator map projection makes it look enormous right?

Hope the LA Times is being sure to print the fire’s point of view too.
