We're finally starting to implement music coverage on Dodo Eraser in a more meaningful way. You know what that means: if you're interested in having your music covered, or you want to write about music, email dodoerasermag@gmail.com. We're picky but always happy to listen to an album or read a pitch

Big thanks to @travisshosa.bsky.social for bringing his keen superhero awareness to a close reading of the upcoming Stanchion book Super Shorts: Toxic Ruminations, which looks closely at what traditional masculinity means when we begin to lose our powers. www.stanchionzine.com/product-page...

I still do journalism sometimes. Interviewed Sharp Pins, Cavetown, My New Band Believe, Modern Woman, and Francis of Delirium over the past few months. But mostly I hate the culture of journalism as it currently stands and I would much rather be writing a poem or story in most instances.

Rubbing shoulders here with some pretty established heavy hitters 💀 Was very honored to be asked to send something in for this. In wrestling terms I’m very much the “young boy” in most spaces I’ve been in this year, and to be thought of for a launch is very validating.

Deactivated my Twitter backup. Don’t know how much I’m gonna be here but maybe more than before, I dunno. I feel like the tiny sense of online community I had has been eradicated the past two years.

Hey all, I’m not dead, just really not doing anything with music anymore because the stress/harassment/etc. is not worth it and if I wanted to be treated like crap, working retail would be a better option because the pay is at least consistent.

Still waiting on Twitter to deal with my account hack. I’m like barely frustrated about it now? I dunno, I’ve been online for like maybe half an hour total this weekend and it’s great. Been doing the Retsnom route in Hundred Line, wrote some poetry, lots of meditation. I think social media sucks.

Wild to think I started writing poetry in earnest last month and I got something on Maudlin House and I just got another poem picked up for what will eventually be a print anthology. And I’ve got enough written for a full collection (but it’s still only half done). Feeling creatively fulfilled rn.
