This Week's Writing 11/29/25
Cat in a box...and support your local newsletter!
I love this picture of the Creature. What a goofball.
I was thinking of doing a Black Friday sale but then I was thanksgivinging and I forgot. But! If you find my writing valuable, I can really use your support; the end of the year is always kind of brutal for freelancers as old clients dump me and new ones…don’t exactly pick me up. It’s $5/month, $50/yr. Or you can tip me through paypal!
And hey, here’s what I published this week.
Politics
Mamdani, Slotkin, and how to beat Trump. (Public Notice)
Journalism has been slop for years; AI is just finishing it off. (EIH)
