You’re reading Candy for Breakfast, a weekly newsletter by me, Max Nussenbaum. It’s about funny feelings, niche intellectual interests, and how to be alive, and it’s delivered every other Sunday.
A good way to get a sense of what I’m all about is to check out some of these representative posts:
Special: When I was younger, people were always telling me I would go on to do great things
Things That Sound Good: On saying the right things for the wrong reasons
Love or Something Like It: How weddings break my brain
Pyramid Pals: What I learned about belonging from my brief encounter with a multi-level marketing scheme
Pining for Quarantine Tinder: Why quarantine Tinder was the best Tinder
