About Me — Alex Cooper

How can I get validation onli— oops, this isn’t Google.

Hi, I’m Alex Cooper.

And yes — if you’re wondering — I am sick of Alice Cooper jokes.

They’re poison.

Poison running through my veins.

Fortunately, the demographics who’ve heard of Alice Cooper are shrinking.

Unfortunately, that means plenty of people won’t have understood the reference I just made.

Eh. Swings and roundabouts.

Now I just have to accept that my name is shared by a podcast host and a teen who was forced into conversion therapy.

The 29-year-old content writer, animal enthusiast, and two-time self-published author is a mere footnote in the Alex Cooper annals of history. A 30-second scroll down Google images before evidence of his existence becomes apparent.

But does his life not also have meaning? Do his words mean less because fewer people will read them? Will he ruin his first impression by continuing to write about himself in the third person? Are red pandas objectively the greatest thing on earth?

Yes? Maybe? Almost certainly. And indubitably.
