Hey friends! Do you have any extra children's books on hand? There's an ongoing book drive for those who lost everything in the Paradise fire, accepting new & used kid's books of all ages. I wrote a FB post about where to send them, here: https://t.co/812hCkrDyD Spread the word!

This week, we had an eggcellent time with Jory John (@IamJoryJohn), reunited with Irvine Welsh’s (@IrvineWelsh) Trainspotting gang, unveiled Sophia Shalmiyev’s (@sshalmiyev) exhibit, and caught thrills with Philip Margolin. See what’s next: https://t.co/UxGvjBDWuz

Hi, would you like to live in this condo? Rent is only $800/month, with a slight $3,200/month HOA fee. $3,150/month will go toward maintaining the exterior walls, trimming a tree, and spraying a patch of lawn with weed killer, so it's definitely money well spent. Hurry!

I’ve started ending most emails with, “But then again, what the heck do I know?”

Hot take: Promoted tweets are pretty weird, sometimes. It’s like: Who are you and what are you even talking about and why are you paying for this? Am I right or am I right? Thank you. 😎 [Promoted]

I’m new to yoga. Last night, I went to a yoga class where the instructor had us close one nostril with our thumb and focus on breathing out of the other nostril for 30 minutes and—at the same time—she told us stories about snowboarding. I finally see what all the fuss is about.

This observation is just based on some casual perusing: Netflix really seems to be getting into the Ray Romano business.

Grocery shopping is OK, but I get a lot of anxiety trying to come up with something good to say to the cashier. My latest gem was, "It's pretty calm in here right now, huh?"

Just signed a bunch of copies of "The Good Egg" and "The Bad Seed" at @Powells on Hawthorne in Portland. Thanks so much to Powell's for making "The Good Egg" a staff pick! ✨
