Therapist: As soon as you get to New Orleans, you’ll be like “Fuck Tucson I am moving back here asap” Me: I don’t know about that New Orleans: 😏😏😏

the enemy of my enemy is not my friend but watching them smack each other in the nuts is still very funny

Might actually be the most ludicrous thing any politician has said this year, and we all know that’s saying something Why don’t you throw some insulin at me so I can stop working 3 jobs for the privilege of remaining alive

LAST DAY OF SCHOOL! (Supposedly staff has one more day tomorrow, but pretty sure I’ll collapse into a sticky puddle the second the kids leave)

HOW is this not the biggest story in the country

You say you also had a weird day, but did a six-year-old watching a video of a meteor shower yell “Stop destroying the world, Jesus”?

Say what you will about AIM, but I appreciated the acceptance of either putting up a flag that says “Hi, I’m mentally available, talk to me” or withholding it

Got into Lambda! 🤩 Can’t afford it 😞 Help a depressed queer writer out? 👀

12 year olds calling each other “so Gen Z” as an insult 💀

My favorite protein shake is Soylent because I appreciate the frank acknowledgement that we live in a dystopia

I’m team Death of a Unicorn 🦄 And it all makes sense now It’s a dark, farcical eat-the-rich comedy, and it’s safe to say that’s not what anyone was expecting

I might not have seen Death of a Unicorn, but the reviews are so extreme and polarized that now I have to know

If Helly/ena is pregnant next season, I’m going to kick a can #Severance

Joker-inducing levels of stupid how Republicans keep having woke rage boners over Disney, a company that’s objectively terrible at diversity, dead last in every representation, addicted to shoving non-white stars into publicity wood chippers, and are the definition of complying in advance to tyranny

Me: Idk I like playing Plants vs Zombies as this girl-coded sunflower, maybe I’m not really trans Rando: Excuse me sir Me: 🥹 😍 🤩

#Severance tries to make Adam Scott not-handsome, but results are mixed

When you can’t find your iPad and realize it is under a fluffy orange cat

Another incredible year at #tucsonfestivalofbooks. Got to finally hang out with @lilliamr.bsky.social in person, dine with @justinepwinans.bsky.social, talk to Daniel M. Lavery, reconnect with @kathleenglasgow.bsky.social, and compare Carrie homages with Tiffany D. Jackson. #tfob2025

I’M READY

TUCSON FESTIVAL OF BOOKS!

Catch me not realizing a top-notch book by one of my top-notch writing teachers is going to be a show until days before its release 😱 Less wait for me! So excited @lizmoorebooks.bsky.social en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Br...

Fully satisfied with this weekend. Guess why?

After exhaustive research, I have come to the conclusion that there are no bad entries in the Child’s Play franchise.

It's OK, Demi Moore, there will always be another movie that seems to be specifically about years of cruel industry treatment and speculation on your body that allows you to reframe your "scandalous" frequent nudity as self-immolating courage in the face of a world that wants you invisible or dead

“But where else are you going to find a Spanish-language trans musical?!” 20 Centimetros came out in 2005 buddy

Every time I do a huge round of laundry, fold it & put it all away, there’s this tiny cheerful dingus part of me that goes: “There! At last. I’ve done it. I’ve Done the Laundry. And that’s it. It will now stay done & I’ll never have to to do laundry again!” Every. Single. Time.

Me, working on my little articles and book projects in February 2025:

Doctor: So you need to hold still for two hours and not eat for six Me: Sure, sure Doctor: Oh and no caffeine in that time Me: Fucking excuse me

I haven’t felt like an adult since I was a teenager

Cryptid spotted

Sick, sad, still rad

I try to stay informed, but every headline makes me want to

On the one hand, I really should go through my Tw*tter lists here so I don’t lose 1500 contacts. On the other hand, that sounds as fun as stabbing myself with a shrimp fork.

Becky Tuch of Lit Mag News weighs in on Narrative Magazine's decision not to award prizes in their Fall 2024 contest, which charged a $27 submission fee. Narrative's sizeable submission fees have long been the target of criticism

Super sick but can’t say I’m not enjoying the deeper voice 😏

Word’s out 👀 😱 🍾

The Substance is worth the hype, my god. How do you make horror Oscar bait and succeed on every level? Give Demi her gold guy.

We all seem like we could use some capybaras to help you vibe.

Something v specific is happening in horror, and I’m just going to say it: I’ve had enough stories about turning into a vaguely sexual bird monster

Waiting room receptionist calls Deveraux up by saying “deev rocks” 🖤🤘

I Blame Society is A-level horror despite there being no one to root for If you liked Ginger Snaps, Prevenge, or May—run, don’t walk (to Tubi)

9 times out of 10, the non-deluxe album is better. I don’t want the acoustic version.

NEGATIVE SELF-TALK: Why aren’t you producing more writing? LOGICAL INTERFERENCE: I mean, you have been waking up at 5 AM for Day Job and then not getting home from Side Hustle until 9 PM. NST: … LI: … NST: Why aren’t you making more money?

every so often I feel compelled to point out that interlibrary loan is a goddamn miracle. If you have a library card and can wait a little while, you can have in your hands just about any book you want.* just because there’s going to be another library out there that says “Sure, we’ll send it.” 📚

STOP making the slasher the tragically deceased girl’s brother It’s been good, it can be good, etc., but NO MORE

“THAT IS BATSHIT NUTS HOW—“ Bud I am not joking even a little when I say I couldn’t stay sane if I weren’t constantly feeding my brain new books
