Via Kottke, here is a charming and amazing short story by Robin Sloan, set as a book proposal for a book that will make Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson president. Wait, what? You just have to read it. The meditations on The Rock, and America, and the description of the book that will do this–I think Robin Sloan needs to work on actually making this happen, because it is compelling. Worth a read.

Here is the meager gift tucked into the disaster that is Donald Trump: now, anyone can be elected president, so anyone will be elected president. We might never have another lawyer in that office again. Donald Trump broke the seal, but Dwayne Johnson will fulfill the prophecy.
