I rarely cry while reading a book, even if I'm deeply moved -- something about the act of experiencing text makes me process it outwardly in a different way. I choked up twice reading this book. absolutely fucking extraordinary in prose and scope and firey enraged empathy. 🖤

loved this film even though I'll have to watch it 3 more times to be able to describe what it's about, but the best part was the irl room of 95% younger millennial and genz trans ppl startled into hysterical laughter for a full minute by "Lara Croft Tomb Raider Sex Slave Dot Com"

for years one of my favorite meals was copying what Philip Marlowe is most often described as cooking for himself (or Terry Lennox!) -- buttered wheat toast cut into soldiers, jammy softboiled eggs, bacon, and coffee. add oranges and/or scotch as the mood takes you!

oh man are you watching for the first time? I watched it for the first time last? year? or the year before? and was initially stunned by how much I loved it. I wasn't sure it was really my sort of thing and then it turned out to be absolutely granularly my sort of thing nearly the whole time

FLESH WITHOUT BLOOD #BERSERK

A diptych of two illustrations depicting Griffith and Guts from the manga / anime Berserk. On the left, Griffith is riding a white horse into a thick wall of leaves, holding up his sword. Red hands reach out of the ground and are grabbing at him and the horse. Large red text above him reads: "Long ago..." On the right, Guts is riding a horse that has its legs up in the air, surrounded by three white flags. His face is depicted as a black silhouette with red slits for eyes. He swings his sword upward and it's covered in blood. Below him, large red text reads, "There was a longing"

and/or insane; a part of a chapter from this book (THE LIZARD CLUB) was printed in the last issue of the 80s-early 90s zine HOMOCORE, which I read scans of in an obsessive fit around this time last year

update on this is that two separate women in their seventies asked me if I knew I had an incredible voice, like "a radio person's" today. which honestly is really nice bc usually I am like oh my god my voice sounds like a rusted-shut gate everyone is going to think I am ELEVEN and HORRIBLE

Richard Shindell is playing Southgate House, an all-time fave venue, in October, & while I'm excited to see a songwriter I've loved for 20yrs in a converted punk church it's also like. try telling 15yrold me "Richard Shindell is playing at a location where you've had gay sex in the bathroom"

okay tdov is over but I worked a closing shift so you're just going to have to admire your local luddite cyberpunk anarchist corvid now instead. also I'm very tired but I am sustained by egg and cheese bagel and Arab funk and disco 💫

also my peak sad detective experience today is that I looked out my window and a blonde with the proportions of a gazelle was sunbathing on the patio of the chain hotel behind my apartment maybe two hundred feet away, gleaming in the afternoon light

especially now that I'm more visibly (or, audibly) trans I love going out into the world like Hello Baby Queers. The Future Is For The Freaks

went to the Ulta by my apartment for my monthly peroxide and black nail polish and my cashier was a tiny baby white-blonde androgynous punk with a massive spiked black septum ring and raspy t-voice. we kind of stared at each other over the register like two Pokemon evolutions meeting.

heeeee! honestly the boxcutter on a badge pull is one of my favorite things I've ever bought; I use it constantly to open boxes at work but also for mail at home. Sooooo satisfying

Corey's dad got a triple extra package of the basic allergy meds we both take from Costco and unloaded a bottle of like eight million on us so I took them all winter to pre-empt the spring turbo attack season....... it has only helped like 20% more 😭

also switched the blade on my boxcutter; swept under the bed (don't ask me about this. dark stuff.); repaired a favourite vintage shop ring in a janky way that appeals to me, a punk scavenger; pruned my roses; and am nearly finished with this goddamn 600pg history~

okay so I am not necessarily going to permanently install this tiny cheese grater on my daily-wear carabiner. but I enjoy knowing that I COULD.
