congrats on being featured in SUBSTACK READS! much deserved! i loved that piece.
and now, for things i love about THIS piece:
-- "The Values Or Whatever"
-- "we can create meaning however we choose"
-- "He looks exactly like me - how could I possibly fake that?"
-- "Numbers aren’t real"
-- "as my doctor recently told me, I am human." (have you sought a second opinion? i'll give one)
-- "Substack is different"
-- "I will dance if I want to, I will NOT leave my friends behind. This is a false binary. You can dance AND have friends who do not dance: BOTH ARE TRUE." (i read this one out loud to rini my girlfriend and she said "hahaha that's so fun" where the "hahaha" was a genuine laugh)
-- "HI everyone I’m sad and emotional and my feelings are too big for my tummy" (WELL THEN DON'T EAT ALL THOSE FEELINGS)
love and thanks and EVEN MORE back at ya - BOTH ARE TRUE as in love and thanks are a single unit idea here, and then the EVEN MORE is another idea, so together they are two ideas which, given their trueness, end up both being true and ipso all the way to facto:
Dude you gotta meet my financial advisor some day (yes you Alex, not Brad — say whaaaat???) because he’s an absurdist! He made up his own society and everything. It’s a fascinating combo.
Here to say I believe in you, Alex! And also, life is absurd.
Thank you Michael I appreciate that truly and deeply
Just here to say I love you.
And I hate Brad (Bread)
Love you also hate Bread
I wish I had a twin sister like you have Brad. Any suggestions? And I’m asking you, not Brad!
literally just make your hair messy and then start screaming. That's it.
