The death penalty is barbaric. And this administration reveals in cruelty.

No lies detected. We spent a lot of time on it. Which story do y'all think is the end of side one?

And, @linachern.bsky.social's story was a great story to put at the end. It is such a satisfying story, it leaves you just... like you want to hang out some more...

Republicans are WEIRDOS. Obsessed with what you're doing in the bedroom.

That botulism doesn't just happen, you know. It costs money...

A widow & a master of reinvention. @jesterholm.bsky.social 's VALLERI is a story of obsession, while feeling like a love letter to the old Minneapolis music scene. (Which hit @writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.com & I in the feels.) DAYDREAM BELIEVER is out NOW from @shotgunhoney.com !

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Y'all, I used to live in Minneapolis... some of this takes place on a street I used to live! This one is a twisty tale, you got to read it to believe it! #booksky

I just need Ezra Klein to weigh in on whether his buddy that he has so much admiration for is doing politics the right way

@writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.comOct 2, 2026, 1:57 AM

He’s got the worst political instincts. People hate the perv glasses. It’s like he’s self sabotaging his political future.

@writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.comOct 1, 2026, 7:55 PM

The racism of it all.

@writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.comOct 1, 2026, 6:06 PM

Speaking of loathing, I don’t like it when organizations hand over your email address to a third party business who then create a profile. Yes, this is a sub-skeet of Bouchercon.

@writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.comOct 1, 2026, 6:05 PM

I loathe people who park with the motor running so they can use the AC while they just sit there. Roll down a window. Save yourself some gas. Stop running your fucking engine.

@writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.comOct 1, 2026, 4:01 PM

I guess what I’m saying, just be cool. Don’t be pushy. Let me sell myself on your book because you’re cool and I want to learn something.

@writelarrywrite.lawrenceallanwrites.comOct 1, 2026, 4:01 PM

Y’all, don’t make each and everyone issue of your newsletter about pitching one of your products. Especially most of the newsletter. Especially you self help guys.

We get it. You are a business. But it’s annoying and my unsubscribe finger begins to twitch. #newsletter

John Roberts' friend and defender is quoted in the piece, saying they shouldn't be shaming Roberts for the wreckage and ruin he's brought to this country because of "civility." The bullies always cry "civility" when the victims push back in the slightest.

Public anger comes for John Roberts The chief justice’s summer retreat in Maine used to be one of boating, potluck dinners, touch football and easy friendships. Locals called him “John.” Now a swirl of anger has been rising at him, transforming his getaways. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/01/u...

Good. He should never know peace.

Execution is a horror upon our souls.
