"I closed my eyes and held my fingers to my temples. Nothing. Just the quiet field. The two of us sitting in the truck cab, the summer sun still hot in the evening. She said anyone could do it but no one was like her. I’d known that right away." This is an honor--thank you @okaydonkeymag.com 🌟

"I’m not saying I know how to live. I’m saying I may have invented having cake for breakfast, wine for lunch, and breakfast for dinner. I’m saying I miss my father, who is very much alive." Thank you to The Disappointed Housewife, @offbeatlit.bsky.social , for giving this micro the perfect home.

"people want to be free and not held down especially on top of the head what they want I think is freedom on a large scale and freedom on a small scale but they also want to be in love which means you are not free but a captive held in a prison of irrational attachment"

“Sure, AI can do _______, but it’ll never be able to ______” is BS. It’ll do it and make money and be popular and enter the culture in every creative field. You might despise it but you’ll be fooled too. Where does that leave us? No idea. And it'll get messier. But I appreciate this essay so much.

“Homesickness begins to creep in. Loneliness. I showed them a picture of my girlfriend and they love her hair. It’s long and blond and she has it pulled back into a ponytail. One of them asks why I came all alone, across space, to this distant place. What have I done, I wonder.”

One of the chief virtues of the book is that it’s nearly the only remaining form of media that isn’t constantly being interrupted by ads. Between the covers is the last place on earth where no one is trying to sell you shit, a place where you can still be a human being rather than a mark.
