Writer. Ex-cretin. Check out my Skid Row memoir Crooked Smile, link below https://t.co/6IpSscBWQJ

Updated, Crooked Smile is finally available. Order it via link in bio š
My book is finally available for pre-order! If you've ever wondered what it's like to grow up in a crackhouse, get adopted into a rich neighborhood when you're 12, then become a chronically homeless drug addict criminal for 10 years, then escape it, and then outline a plan on how we can actually help the many thousands of current homeless drug addicts get back on their feet, you might like "Crooked Smile". Please pre-order!

One of my letters of rec for Law School was written by my uncle, which I was weary of using (family), but he recounts my transformation better than anyone. If youāre an admissions cm and reading this, and want another letter, I have one I can replace it with. Pls reach out.

Iāve been trying, but I just canāt make contact. Thatās why I want to get the word out by going on outlets like Rogan. If I go on Rogan and discuss the reality of whatās happening with the HIC, thatās the best way to get the attention of DOGE and the incoming HHS. Basically my dream is to work for HHS and adjust the federal approach to these issues.

Iām trying to figure this out. Male a lot of noise, connections, relationships, etc. simply applying for gov jobs doesnāt work , you need a bunch of worthless degrees, but more importantly you need to be ideologically aligned with the HIC, not against it. Iāve written a book and have made some government ties but itās a very uphill battle

Yes I used to live in Beaverton. That's too bad. It all makes sense until you have a loved one out there in the streets and you realize that they need to be incentivized to stop and enter treatment. Portland actually has a lot of resources though, which is good. However, they have zero of the required incentive to actually get people to utilize these resources

@imstephinSF @Twolfrecovery @shellenberger I have faith that they will. I'd love to go to Hastings and eventually become an SF superior judge.

@thisisamoose 2.4 from UC Santa Cruz. I got a bunch of ads during the end because I got addicted to heroin. Not a great excuse, but I wrote a great personal essay on my whole transformation

@thisisamoose I think Iām definitely in somewhere. Although I do have a low GPA. And a semi-public persona as an ex-drug addict criminal. But the most damning thing that may prevent me at some schools is my appearances on some right leaning podcasts and Fox News lol

@GraduatedBen Thank you, @GraduatedBen . That means a lot to me coming from you. I'd like nothing more than to serve the American ppl by dissecting the billion dollar grift that feeds on the lives of thousands, out those responsible, and massively trim/reshape our approach to both epidemics.

@GraduatedBen Thereās tunnels all around downtown LA Iām pretty sure. I was at Occupy LA when it got shut down, hundreds of swat came out of the city hall building, the center of the protest/campgrounds, having gotten there through the tunnel system. Smart to utilize them during protests

@garrytan @hbbtruth Judge Gerardo Sandoval has run unopposed for 2 terms. Heās still reducing serial shoplifters charges to misdemeanors, which is not what the ppl of CA voted for with prop 36, so when heās up for reelection in 2026, we all need to come together and make sure heās replaced.
