ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 26/01/2026The condensation builds, then freezes, all while the cohesion that binds us withers. Ice melts eventually. The instinct to survive dies when no one is left. 000
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 05/09/2025Why are PT Anderson and Darren Aronofsky worshipping Tarantino with their newest films? Did they discuss doing this? Are they all into feet? They in a feet gang? Weird choices. 010
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Perception in reverse, Lies paraded as truth, The media we digest constantly has gone sour. Who are we supposed to think are the real enemy? The ones being slaughtered incessantly, every day, in lines for food, starving to death are who you want me to hate? We will never believe you ever again. 010
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 30/06/2025How is the condemnation of a tyrannical military force conflated with the hatred of a religion?! It doesn't make any fucking sense! 010
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Dreams of a better future as the looming terror of genocide denial permeates completely. A test? One that we will surely fail and then break, as a whole, into the parts. To be human is to want humanity to continue. To be demon is to want humanity to end. When will this test end? 000
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 20/06/2025Just read A Perfect Spy by John Le Carré and really loved it. I've never read any of the Smiley books but I've seen both versions of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, love the story. About to read The Gone Away World by Harkaway, his SF is supposed to be top notch. I think I might be a spy genre fan now 110
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 05/06/2025It was my first encounter with extreme poverty. I didn't understand. I grew up in a middle class family. It bothered me tremendously. I wanted to know why we could have all the food and water we needed and they couldn't. I still don't get it. 020
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 05/06/2025After eating we then went to walk around the streets of Ciudad Acuña. I was in shock at seeing children my own age begging for money. Disabled people laying on the hot pavement because they had no other place to go. 100
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 05/06/2025I was told not to drink the water because it could make me sick. The straws and other materials were reused. It was explained to me why this was the case. These people were poorer than my family. This is how they live. 100
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 05/06/2025While there we went over the border into Mexico. Into a town named Ciudad Acuña. We waited in the long line of cars at the border check point. It was a hot summer day. After taking a long time to get into Mexico we were hungry. 100
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 05/06/2025When I was 9 years old my family took a trip to Del Rio Texas, on border of Texas and Mexico, to visit my aunt, uncle and cousins. They lived on the US Air Force base there. My uncle was a career military man. 100
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 24/05/2025But to be alive is rare and powerful and beautiful. It cancels out the fact that we die. 000
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 24/05/2025Death looms over everything we do while alive. Being alive is a better thing to focus on. It can conquer all efforts of grief and violence to keep us morbid. Grief has put a seed of doubt into me where I obsess over the thought of non existence. 100
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 17/05/2025Existing in between particles. Consciousness projected into a micro reality. We discover new states of matter. Where everything is connected into one infinite mass. Where time and space are malleable. All information is accessed here. The secrets of reality have been unveiled. 000
Reposted by ATOPRico Charges @nochorus.bsky.social · 24/04/2025a few kind listeners who work in bookshops/places that tolerate flyers asked if there's something they can print out and put up to promote the show. The result is below. I would really appreciate anyone who felt like doing this but no pressure at all, ofc. (yes, this is my big year three promo push) 910944
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 01/04/2025God Emperor of Dune was pretty good. Probably my favorite of the four Dune books I've read. Probably the only four I'll read. There were a surprising amount of dick jokes. They all felt very necessary. While reading, you are wondering, how does he pee? And does he have junk? Herbert knew. 020
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 27/03/2025As a child, after learning about the outer space, I would imagine, obsess over the size of the universe. It was troubling. I needed to know what was on the other side of everything. No one could give an answer. Contemporary science unveiling more and more explanations is most welcoming. 010

ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 26/02/2025GWB Jr came into my work. Lots of security detail with earpieces. W just strolling around in a t shirt and shorts, being sweaty. He walks towards me and I'm staring, it was surreal. I asked him, "Hot enough for ya?" "Better than bein cold," he responded. He loves the hellscape he helped create. 110
ATOP @theorphicpriest.bsky.social · 16/02/2025He finally stopped talking and we parted ways but the lingering effects were potent. We were both in a terrible head space after. Got in a bad argument bc of hunger. It was not good. I just felt like if we had interrupted his talking, we would upset him and become his next playthings. 000
