I’m going to be out of commission for a while. I’ll spare you (or deny you) the gory details. The short version is, I am in pretty bad shape, and, after a couple more unpleasant diagnostic procedures, I’m going to get operated on by a big, scary-looking robot like the one in the photo above.… Read More Medical Leave
Has America been made great again enough for you yet? I asked that question back in May of last year in a column titled The Godzilla Window. It didn’t go over very well at the time, at least not with my conservative readers. Here are a couple excerpts … Personally, I don’t know how much… Read More The Golden Age of America Made Great Again
Three armed Berlin police officers arrived at my door this morning with a warrant to search my apartment. They conducted the search, interrogated me and my wife, and confiscated my computer. The search warrant was issued in connection with a new criminal investigation of me by the Berlin State Prosecutor. Once again, as in 2023,… Read More A Visit by the German Thought Police
OK, I’m not back in the U.S.S.A. quite yet, but I’ll be there Sunday night, assuming (a) the German officials allow me to leave, and (b) the Guardians of American Greatness at JFK Airport let me into the country.

OK, here comes America Road Trip Update No. 3. America Road Trip Update No. 3 is going to be predominantly promotional. It’s also going to be a little sappy, probably, which I know is out of character for me, but I’m extremely grateful to all the kind readers who are organizing gatherings and dinners and… Read More The Kindness of Strangers
Here comes Road Trip Update No. 2. It’s a bit of a weird update, as you are about to discover.

I am publishing it here on the Consent Factory blog late, having just published Update No. 2.] So the America Road Trip Project is coming together quickly. This will be the first of a series of updates I plan to post… Read More Strangers in a Strange Homeland
Here we go. The slightly crazy idea I floated back on July 9 has evolved into an actual book project, which will take place on the road all across the USA in September and October 2025. It doesn’t have a title yet, so I’m just calling it the “America Road Trip Project.” The plan is,… Read More America Road Trip Project
There are 33,334 of you. Probably even more by the time you read this. I do not ask much of you. I do not ask often. But I need to ask something of you now. I need to ask you to buy my novel. But, first, I want to say a few things about capitalism.… Read More Dear Substack Subscribers
