1) I have met Mike Sowden in person at a pub in London and he's a complete puppy dog! And by that I mean, he kept making messes on the pub floor that I had to clean up while shouting, "Bad Mike Sowden! THAT IS NOT AMAZING!"
2) do you ever fight or debate people online? has it ever gone well?
Spectacularly well. During the 2016 US election I waged online warfare with my awful high school classmates who were supporting Trump. I'm pretty sure the results of that election speak volumes about my success!
3) do you love your wife? If yes, why are you so afraid to share that with the world?
I love my husband and the very heterocentric nature of this question reveals your true nature. WHY DO YOU HATE RUPAUL!
4) What other deep truths are you afraid to admit online?
I have gone to Starbucks while living in Italy. Everyone should just unsubscribe from our Substack now.
5) Do you have any tips for how Mike and I can improve our relationship?
Yes. If you subscribe to my new Substack Advice For Deranged Heteroflexible Substack Writers, I'll share it with you.
1. Has Mike Sowden also attacked you on the internet and if so do you want to join my class action lawsuit? It’s gonna be more of a class dramedy but same idea.
Mike hasn't attacked me on the internet, but there's still time. Also, I never decline an invitation to join a class action lawsuit. I'm in!
2. do you ever fight or debate people online? has it ever gone well? I try not to do that. It always goes poorly. Actually, that's not totally true. One time, I witnessed two situation normies quarrel, but out of respect for themselves and the game, they backed away to their respective corners, grabbed a snack & hydrated, issued apologies, accepted apologies, then went back to their conversation. I was a proud internet lurker that day. But mostly, online debates are Thunderdome with Tina Turner's kickass soundtrack.
3. do you love your wife? If yes, why are you so afraid to share that with the world? Yes, I love her very much. Am I afraid to share that? Maybe. Also, did you put you up to this, Alex?
4. The answer is: 42.
5. What other deep truths are you afraid to admit online? I think American greatness basically comes down to one thing: free refills on sodas and iced-tea. Try getting a free refill in Cambodia, or Spain, or Korea. Not gonna happen. America is #1 (because of free refills).
6. Do you have any tips for how Mike and I can improve our relationship? We’re in couples therapy now, like literally now I am writing this while in a session and Mike and the “doctor” keep saying, “Alex hurry up your post is too long its not gonna be digestible and punchy” and I give em a MEAN MUG and keep typing. This is a tough one. I think you both should consider touching grass more often. That is the way.
Loving your wife is for CUCKS who have been CUCKED by the WOKE LIBTARD ESTABLISHMENT. I will go home and crank the barrel of my AR-15 to my ANIME JAPANESE GODDESS because SHE would NEVER use PRONOUNS and admit to having WEAK SOYLENT EMOTIONS for me.
you have done it again, and by "it" i mean "fun." you have done fun again.
now, to answer your questions like i love doing:
"Has Mike Sowden also attacked you on the internet and if so do you want to join my class action lawsuit? It’s gonna be more of a class dramedy but same idea."
alex, this question seems more like a joke than a sincere inquiry, so my answer to you is laughter.
"do you ever fight or debate people online? has it ever gone well?"
i used to do it A LOT. i now consider myself a recovering argumentaholic. it very rarely went well. though there are a FEW instances i remember where i responded kindly and respectfully to someone who initially came in real hot from the other direction and by the end of it we had reached a communion of understanding of sorts. so, it IS possible! now, if someone says something oppositional to a public post of mine, i'll respond thoughtfully ONCE, and if they respond in good faith, then we can have a conversation! and if they don't, i'll stop. this has saved me a lot of time and aggravation. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THAT?
"do you love your wife? If yes, why are you so afraid to share that with the world?"
i do and i'm not. in fact, the only reason i would hesitate to share it loudly and widely all the time is because i wouldn't want to make anyone else feel inadequate to have not found the caliber of love that i feel for my girlfriend of 7 years who is my wife functionally (the most romantic way)!
"What other deep truths are you afraid to admit online?"
my greatest weakness is my desire for perfection, mr job interviewer.

alex, this one ALSO seems more like a joke than a sincere inquiry so once again the answer is LAUGHTER HAHAHA.

Mike Snowden’s THIS TIME is a cliffhanger. I’m sure I speak for everyone—well, maybe not Morgthorak the Undead — when I say we want a round 2.
Do you ever fight or debate people online? Has it ever gone well?
Just the other day I commented on “Let’s Talk About That High School Debate” on The Free Press. They made the case that “leftist ideologies” and communists are destroying debate in the USA and the problem with debate restrictions.
I agreed we shouldn’t have debate restrictions, but when I pointed out the examples when right wing people suppressed free speech, attacked journalists, burned books, and sent firing squads on protestors, shit went south.
It seemed many people reading The Free Press article stand for free speech and debate until it comes to events and research they don’t wanna hear.
It was the first time Substack felt like Twitter. The angrier and more hateful the comments, the more likes. Comments that sought common ground were often overlooked.
Which has me thinking, is it algorithms that push emotive and polarising posts, or is that just what most people are drawn to?
2. If my cats count as people online, then yes I do
3. I am married to a Man but I still consider myself a Wife Guy (TM)

1.Mike doesn’t know I exist. He’s too busy juggling families and cooling his tea.
Everyone loves your wife. I have a secret family with her. We have two golden retrievers.
I love my hubby. Today is his birthday. I have plans for him.
Mike has been nothing but nice over texts, and once on a video call he was effusive in his praise. This makes me deeply suspicious.

Best internet debate ever
So worthy a word battle is rarely seen--and can we just scream booorjwazee in the sound of the poor children for the rest of our lives? Dying.
Loving your wife is for CUCKS who have been CUCKED by the WOKE LIBTARD ESTABLISHMENT. I will go home and crank the barrel of my AR-15 to my ANIME JAPANESE GODDESS because SHE would NEVER use PRONOUNS and admit to having WEAK SOYLENT EMOTIONS for me.
So which of you is the bot? Confused.
The painting is really interesting
This was too funny!
I spit out my coffee at the line —“ Like any dumpling worth their salt, I was steamed.”
Hilarious
dear alex,
you have done it again, and by "it" i mean "fun." you have done fun again.
