Reading Predator sometimes felt like reading a tweet thread from the most annoying white people on Twitter—the type who feel the need to very loudly condemn and apologize for their backward brethren. And yet, against all odds, Monson pulls this off.

Utterly shocked that pickleball players would use the logic of disaster capitalism to get their way. True Milton Friedman shit here; this is why Naomi Klein wrote the Shock Doctrine. To warn everyone against this type of craven nonsense. https://t.co/Qs4zW9kckE

Wrote about Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, the concept of ‘quality,’ American literary seekers, and a new collection of Robert Pirsig’s writings. https://t.co/6UG91O6GxQ

New @ttsgpod. Me and @BigMeanInternet talk about his new book - PALO ALTO - my trip to the train museum in Sacramento, the haunting of Palo Alto and some fun writing stuff in there as well. https://t.co/3LVbdA1LnE

UCLA. Great institution of public learning. Everyone I’ve met who went there is super cool and smart and diverse. Class program. I expect them to win by about 15 tonight. They just have too much talent for the Heels. Congrats to all Bruins fans.

Out of stock

For Hsieh, it was promoting a book about happiness and company culture that was supposedly based on silly academic psychology stuff about how to truly be happy but was also based a lot on Neil Strauss’s the Game and pickup artist culture. https://t.co/ujApftSHgW

Had a long convo with @OlufemiOTaiwo about his new book, ‘Elite Capture: how the powerful took over identity politics.” We talk about a lot - he’s one of the thinkers who blew me away when I first read his work.

THE LONELIEST AMERICANS is out in paperback today! Read the book that prompted one of the funniest and bizarre backlashes of the past year and the book that made New York Magazine so mad that it wrote ~7000 words this year slandering me as a human. https://t.co/Ed8et05jA7
