Friday, Friday How do you do? What larky larks Shall we accrue? Blackflips, tumbles, Twirls and splits. A sloppy kiss From my wet lips. Friday, Friday Saucy fop. Spunk my pelvis With you on top. Gambol, boogie, Jive, Lambada. Juices flow as We get harder. FRIDAY! #Friday

Momentarily breaking my no politics rule because this is just absolutely infuriating, and it's not even so much politics as journalistic cowardice. Marc Thiessen, your opinion is worth about as much as your non-existent spine and brain www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Sublime. The art of auto-voiced YouTube reddit story thumbnails has peaked 👌 #spectacle #ai #slop #art
This is a YouTube thumbnail. The 70% on the left is taken up by four increasingly dramatic statements in all-caps, each a different color, and the 30% on the right shows an AI image of a young, ludicrously thin woman in a black formal dress singing or speaking under a chandelier, holding the full attention of several people turned to watch her. The text reads: "MY FATHER PUBLICLY DISOWNED ME AT FAMILY DINNER," "'YOU'RE A LEECH WHO DOESN'T DESERVE OUR BLOOD,'" "THEN I BOUGHT HIS COMPANY AND BECAME A MILLIONAIRE," "NOW BEG FOR FORGIVENESS, DAD"
  
[End].

For I am a witch, the world is my temple. Every half-flooded path offers me puddle-peeping, offers me scyring mirrors better than any glass. Every wooded walk a movement into wild mysteries. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981 #WitchSky

I may have figured out how to write poems while happy! #poem #poems #poetry #kindness #identity
This is a poem by the poster, Tad Garish, entitled "To a Raccoon." It reads:

To a Raccoon
-----
  
Wherever you have been crawling, hiding,
There must be no sun or still water,
Since, slumped in my gentle trap, you deny 

That you are a glorious jungle-cat who was
Trained into this delusion that brings you
To my drive, to my tree, to my garage, 

With its suspiciously comfortable corner--
Warmed, insulated bed, conveniently
Near-dead prey slowly groping the air
  
And a new letter each night to remind you,
In a language you don't claim to speak, 
Of your fearsome claws and roar.
  
Even if you never understand, 
Stay. Be fine. I won't wake you.

This account doesn't post about US politics. Yes, the county was founded as an act of anti-fascist action, yes it tries to manifest the values of kindness, connectivity and resistance, but there will never be direct words on the spectacle of American collapse. If you want that, please go elsewhere.

More anomalous author goals: 🟩 See a baker design my book imagery onto their bread with flour. 🟩 See my characters made into nail polish art. 🟩 See someone handpaint my characters onto the edges of their editions. 🟩 See someone make jewelry inspired by the series/universe. #booksky

Goodnight from Jim Dyke, disappointed none of the patrons of The Wicked Fetch pub agree with his theory about Faery vandalism to the cat’s eyes on the B3229. Goodnight from Beth Ripley, hoping all the souls she’s storing in tobacco tins in the shed are secure. Goodnight from Hookland.

Streamline writing by cutting perception fallacy
When writing from a character’s point of view, authors should avoid the perception fallacy. This clunky kind of storytelling assumes that if a tale is being told from a specific character’s po…

#shortpoemsunday A farmer's son, what did he know of war? A sniper's gun, a grave far away from home, a plaque on the chapel wall. (In memory of my mother's cousin, William John Evans, of Penuwch, Ceredigion, killed in 1944 and buried in Ranville War Cemetery. From 'Deep Roots, Wide Branches.)

Tonight on the Mead Hall menu (top table only) fat crackling pig, black pudding, roast tatties, seasonal veg, and a gravy thick enough to slice. Lower tables. Spam with blood. Vegetarian/vegan option. Apple sauce. Scraps and scrapings by the leper gate as ever.
