Being an artist is cool bc it's like telling people "I was really good at playing pretend as a child so I had no choice but to go pro."

I reviewed Mac Crane’s PERVERTS for 👀👀👀 This unhinged & unexpectedly wholesome collection is easily in my top 10 favorite books of all time. A must-read for anyone thinking about labor, transness, & acceptability. www.autostraddle.com/perverts-sit...

'Perverts’ Sits With Self-Doubt, Embarrassment, and Labor When the World Writes You Off as a 'Freak'

More than lending humanity to the types of queer folks society would rather not humanize, Perverts is for the freaks and geeks after a long day of masking.

A million-dollar research study needs to be conducted on Dean Koontz’s social media. Like, how can I imbue my career with this level of enigma and weirdo sex appeal?

Due to a new bill signed by NC Governor Josh Stein (a Democrat), the moratorium on our state's death penalties has been ended and may now proceed via *any* method. Welcome back, barbarity.

Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

It's crazy that my zillion hours on the internet has left me with a simple, unshakeable belief: If I see a product being advertised online, it is poor quality and should be avoided.

i’m terrible at math/with numbers in general (can barely remember my own phone number), so of course i decided to write a love poem in the form of a mathematical formula. here’s my other new poem in Quarterly West, “Formula for a Day”—

Formula for a Day

1 sleepless night + 1 pretty melon

x 3 tender envelopes + 0 buddha

sightings despite the bestest

efforts - 2 large eggs - 1 little

jade plant + 1 medium to

large ego ÷ 4 windowsills in need

of dusting + 14 winds in need

of watering x 40 windows of need x

the plane of the real + the flame of non

- remembering to reply to that email

- a memory of an afternoon in childhood

- a memory of an evening in adolescence

- 1/7 of a memory of the other day

- .09 of a memory of one’s mother

÷ the two bestest faggots

who ever fagged x the tasty

homecooked dinner they share x the fact

that they’ve long lost count of how many

dinners they’ve shared +

the tenderest part of them that wishes they knew

exactly which number

this dinner is

the funniest thing about bluesky is that eventually, you're going to run into somebody who claims that they know all 26 letters of the alphabet. i'm sorry to burst your bubble, but: no. you don't. nobody does

Support yr local libraries! Even if all books disappeared (plz keep the books), most of my day-to-day as a library worker is helping folks w/ two-factor authentication. It ~sounds~ good but stops lots of folks from accessing rental apps, legal docs, contact w/ loved ones abroad, & more #libraries
