A great read, and chillingly pertinent to the world's current circumstances...

We know this is spec fic because the protagonist finds the perfect jeans at a thrift shop - and it only gets better from there!

A story in Helen McClory's collection, "Lore," creeped me out so much I still remembered it years after I read it. It's in her wonderful collection, MAYHEM & DEATH. It's available at 404 Ink if you're in the UK. @helenmcclory.bsky.social @404ink.bsky.social

@gbemisoke.bsky.social - Good morning! I'm off Twitter and full-time here now and wish I'd saved a thread you'd posted. It had to do with emotional labor and how it's perceived/enacted by different sexes. If you've still got it, would you consider repeating it here? Many thanks!

After unplugging the brilliant Gettysburg Review, @gettysburg should prepare for a sharp decline in academic reputation. I'm a long time subscriber and only knew of the college at all because of this fine lit mag. Tragic.

Our colleagues at Gettysburg Review have received some devastating news. It’s alarming for the literary community as a whole, & the SLM fam encourages everyone to voice their thoughts to the university that defunded them. All our voices matter! More info in this pic (thx @bullcitypress.bsky.social!)
Dear Friends, Contributors, Subscribers, & Supporters of Literature,
After 35 years of editorial and publishing excellence, the president of Gettysburg College has decided to end the Gettysburg Review. Lauren & I are understandably devastated. We have been offered a rationale for this decision, but it's frankly one that neither Lauren nor I understand or accept. It was made clear to us that they know little about who we are, what we do, and what our value is, and could be, to the Gettysburg College campus. 
We encourage you to reach out to the college’s president, Bob Iuliano, and provost, Jamila Bookwalla. Tell them what you think of this decision & the merits of publishing great literature.

We would love to hear about what the Gettysburg Review has meant to you. Please send condolences, anecdotes, and other stray and helpful thoughts to Lauren & me, and if we can, we will share them...
