BBC was playing top of the pops when I was driving yesterday. I had thought top of the pops had ended at some point. I was further confused because apparently Eminem is making music again, but he sampled one of his own old songs, so I had about 3 minutes of wondering if they were playing a rerun

Another excellent day of habitat restoration. Did get mistaken for a different trans dude I worked with last time, and then spent some time working with two older women who both had the slightly wrong name for each other and were both mad about the other one. Names y'all

Good morning, loves! Gigi is off to the vet for routine bloodwork this morning so I thought perhaps for #SaturdayPoem we’d do one about cats.

Cat Moving Kittens
BY AUSTIN SMITH
We must have known,
Even as we reached
Down to touch them
Where we'd found them

Shut-eyed and trembling
Under a straw bale
In the haymow, that
She would move them

That night under cover
Of darkness, and that
By finding them
We were making certain

We wouldn't see them again
Until we saw them
Crouching under the pickup
Like sullen teens, having gone

As wild by then as they'd gone
Still in her mouth that night
She made a decision
Any mother might make

Upon guessing the intentions
Of the state: to go and to
Go now, taking everything
You love between your teeth.

oh to be one of 4-5 perverts of acquaintance to an artist. what a privilege.

tumblr post from user natalie ito side that reads

You should never create anything with a wide audience in mind. The so-called "general audience" doesn't exist; it's a fiction made up by advertising executives. Most of the time, great art and literature is made with the intention of pleasing no more than 4 or 5 specific perverts of the author's acquaintance

This is one of the reasons why I say that environmentalism has taken the shape of diet culture. The goal is always to obsess over minutae and put the focus on the individual to the exclusion of the broader system.

WIP X-files, Krycek, Mulder and some dreams.

Krycek’s dreams were never this boring. His life was never this boring. Well, that was a lie, surveillance could get dull, even if you were expected to shoot someone at the end of it. All the same, he wondered if he had managed to get slipped something at the bar he had visited and was catatonic in front of a tv watching something softcore. The only discordant element was Fox Mulder, mostly naked, sitting beside him on the couch.

Mulder wasn’t even jerking off, which could have provided some excitement. Instead he was watching two tanned and mostly hairless bodies writhe around on the huge bed. It felt like there was a half acre of white sheets in front of them.

“Is this exciting for you?” Krycek asked Mulder as the female blonde straddled the male blond and rocked her hips back and forth mechanically. Krycek supposed penetration could be happening, but it was hard to tell from this angle.

Mulder startled, like he hadn’t noticed Krycek

Politicians and journalists need to stop pretending that “evacuation” is a meaningful concept in Rafah when there is nowhere to evacuate to. Evacuation orders are sick jokes and just efforts for the IDF to absolve itself of genocidal intent and action.
