I just read Fairytale, which is the first new thing I've read by him in 20 years and enjoyed it immensely. Getting sober did wonders for his endings.

Reply to comment by zumera in AP deletes widely mocked tweet about ‘the’ French by SlitherinPlays
It honestly probably brought more attention to what they were trying to point out, as explained in the article. If you could edit tweets, they could have just changed "the poor" or "the disabled" to something like "the college educated" or other positive state rather than something with an inherently negative connotation. I thought the reaction was pretty funny though. "Suffering from Frenchness" is a great phrase.
