Looks like Pedro Pascal was with Karol G and Cardi B in the Casita.

writer friends! I’m attempting to resurrect a craft essay about space and silence in fiction that I stayed years ago. I have a lot of canonical examples, but I’d love some ideas of recent fiction that “pauses” the plot as the prose continues. Any ideas? #writers #fictioncraft #amwriting

"... fear of heights has nothing to do with the distance from the ground or tall buildings,... it’s about our own human urge to fall when we get that far up, the knowledge that we could plummet, we could go, if we wanted. When I think about Spencer, I wonder why I didn’t choose to fall with him,..."

Christ, the Crystal Waters piece, and its parallels to the story of someone I used to know, absolutely broke me. Addiction’s a hell of an affliction, and it ran very different courses in our respective lives. I’m fucking grateful for where i landed and the people who held me through it.

"Since 2020, pandemic-induced mental health crises resulted in exacerbated abuse of substances..." @katprow.bsky.social does everything I love for a @marchxness.bsky.social essay to do! We learn about Crystal Waters & "Gypsy Woman," but also about Kat, & life itself! marchxness.com/justlikeyou/

@drewpasmith.com thank you for the kind words—I worried about how much to write with this one, as there’s so much to say on addiction and the unhoused population, but I’m so happy to read this resonated 💜

hoping to try something new next quarter with a lit-based comp class. I want to talk about labor and the working class. What are your favorite pieces of lit (CNF, poetry, short fiction) about work? link me!

SO many good songs left to choose from. I wanted Madonna or PM Dawn or TLC or Whitney F*ing Houston! But I think I’ll pitch an extracurricular on Crystal Waters “Gypsy Woman,” as it’s my strongest essay idea. Join me! Someone HAS to do Whitney.

In that vein then, there’s Alice Deejay, “Better off Alone,” Haddaway’s “What is Love?” Gigi D’Agostino’s “L’Amour Toujours,” and Real McCoy, “Another Night.”

A few more that I just thought of: Selena, “Dreaming of You.” Arrested Development’s “Mr. Wendal,” or Crystal Waters, “Gypsy Woman,” (both about the unhoused), Brandy, “Have You Ever?” or Skee-lo, “I Wish.”

Also feel like “Mmm mmm mmm mmm,” from Crash Test Dummies is a must.

We're soon going to be reading four Danceness essays per day, & you don't want to go into that cold, so limber up by reading @katprow.bsky.social's excellent "Humps" essay—an ideal pace car for what's coming, if I may mix sporting metaphors. Check it out!
