"you love sleeping on a roof so much more than sleeping under a roof—and you feel something move in your beard but it isn’t alarming" A tiny gem of a piece from @dawnsteffler.bsky.social; I love the whole feel of this; sparkling writing

Veronica Mars is one of my favorite shows to re-watch. I used to think the culture of male sexual aggression it captured was a time capsule. Now, it's clearer that the seeds were pushed down out of view, only to bloom equally grotesque. Accountability needs to happen at the top to matter.

the delulu part of me hopes our boy doug jones pulls off the impossible again and beats him in the governor race, but either way it's not like i'm moving back to alabama anyway... alabamareflector.com/2026/09/25/t...

all of late night comedy made fun of tub's speech bc of the furry pilot bit, while obtusely ignoring the massive 'transgenderism is a mental illness' sign beside him + his calls to build state mental institutions & his assertion that trans ppl are violent threats to society. history syncopates 🙄

“Where do you get your ideas from, Ms Le Guin?” From forgetting Dostoyevsky and reading road signs backwards, naturally. Where else?

when i worked at a head shop in the rust belt, the only person i can remember wearing a collared shirt was a solar salesman who was very high on coke who kept trying to show off his seiko watch to me while buying chew tobacco

the kind of excellent analysis you get from intelligent people writing about a topic/situation, instead of a professional pundit who has made a particular ideology/perspective their 'beat' & so central to their income it has fused with their identity & distorts everything they see & write

girl, my wife and i just bought a house and it's so ridiculous. in my metro a standard inspection contingency loses almost every time. we had 6 losing offers, & in the end we had to bid way over and do pass/fail inspection which was insane and stressful and we got lucky 😭

querying a novel is a form of ritualistic torture and humiliation that should be outlawed. i would rather slit the throat of a goat and have the sybils augur my novel's worthiness by reading its tangled intestines.

i've pitched articles in this vein to several mags, especially around trans issues in education as an ex red-state rural teacher, but i've never gotten any bites. used to chalk it up to pedigree, but some of it too is just that they don't care about us beyond their political games

middle-brow 'intellectual' media is usually a few months behind the actual thought cycle online, & w/ trans topics, its willfully 3-5 years behind. we're only interesting to them & their readers as objects/symbols to understand their own experience. this time, of 'soft' fascism

So many universities are like this now, it is frustrating. In the US, some campuses like USC are completely locked around the perimeter. Where I work, University of Minnesota, all the buildings require a card swipe for 'security' (to keep unhoused people out imo). But uni libraries should be open!!

my favorite article in the issue. amazing how the slow rot of sanitized, suburbanized southern political culture has not just spread to the american midwest, but internationally. what a time to be a southerner living outside the south. it just keeps following u wherever u go

yeah, it totally fucked w/ my mental health for a bit. i got way too in my head about how everyone around me (i was a teacher in a rural area) hated ppl like me, and would hate me if they knew. i started seeing the world thru the paradigm of ally vs. enemy. really unhealthy but time has helped some

no matter how many people insist we need to know who this 'clavicular' is, i refuse to give it my attention. i will not dredge worms from the bowels of the internet and feed them to my brain just to 'stay in the know.' instead i choose beautiful, sunny bliss.

i am dying to know what she considers "satanic baby art," but considering her ilk considers ~abigail spanberger~ to be a "demonic radical communist psychopath," it's probably just something slightly more daring than a tomas kinkade
