hi i have not used this app in ages but i am just popping on to say i love my local diy/hardcore music scene :) best concert/mosh of my life last night + crowdsurfed for the first time!! bruised and scraped up from falling but god i love my life

late merry christmas + happy hanukkah!

Hey, friends: One of my favourite dark-season stories, "St. Polypous Stares at the Sun," is temporarily FREE FOR YE over at my Patreon, Fake Folktales! www.patreon.com/posts/st-pol...

i got an A on this !!!!!!! very very proud and you should take that into account and give it a read :D

if i do this i’d likely get ~10 copies printed in advance and then do preorders for the rest i suppose? they’d probably cost around $15 — the cost of printing and shipping plus a couple bucks for me as well! i don’t really care about profit though it’s more about having physical copies of my work

thinking of self-publishing a little book of poetry + short fiction… eek!!!

i hate situationships

When you ask Italian’s about Luigi Mangione

(logs onto Bluesky after two hours of meetings) Did a new Mario Bros trailer drop or

Many people are saying this is the McDonald’s employee who snitched on the backpack shooter.

would be pretty funny if luigi mangione was the wrong guy they picked up after the CEO assassin look alike contest

I'm not convinced that the politics of the killer matter more than the politics of the act.

to be clear i'm not idolizing the guy i just think this is one of the absolute funniest things to happen this year

Burger King: We Won’t Turn You In To The Feds™

What restaurant would be the most embarrassing place to get arrested for a vigilante murder and why is it McDonald’s

Luigi continues to have the most interesting lore of the Super Mario universe

After I got my doctorate in health admin, I could have taken a cushy job atop a corporate health firm & gotten rich off denying claims, but instead, I chose a low-paying civil service job to help care for Veterans & the Military. So don't give me that "he was only doing his job" crap.

he's a 10 but he brings a manifesto to McDonald's

Developing: Pennsylvania Burger King chains have updated their slogan: "Here, snitches get stitches"

okay i am done talking about gay lord of the rings oops sorry! academia really will have you creating long bsky threads about hobbits being queer. i <3 university

never thought i'd be writing an essay about the homosexual subtext in frodo and sam's relationship (and how trying to reduce it to singularly platonic or romantic does a disservice to the portrayal of the queer experience) for a college class but well! here we are

open.substack.com/pub/doggonec... here is my final essay on arcadia by tom stoppard!! please give it a read if you have any itnerest -- i am very very proud of this piece :-)

might actually start using the vestigial substack i made months ago! will keep yall updated but it will likely be poetry and similar literary/etc rants like the ones i just posted screenshots of :-)

i feel a tad bit goofy for posting these now that the author i'm talking about follows me (hi rachel hartman!) buuuuut i went on these long tangents about seraphina + tess on the road over on tumblr the other day and meant to post them over on here too

in other news i wrote a beautiful (in my eyes at least) essay about stoppard’s arcadia as a love letter to the chaos that is humanity. it is my favorite piece i’ve ever written and if anyone ever wants to read it lmk :-)

the eight page research paper that i need to both research and write in the next 12 hours? actually ten pages. guys am i fucked…

bizarre college/university traditions are genuinely my favorite thing ever

while i’m talking about ya-ish fantasy that means a lot to me… in other lands by sarah rees brennan. this book changed my brain chemistry in high school. elliot schafer you get me.

losing my mind at the thought of getting to return to the world of goredd… counting down the days until i can properly meet charl and return to this beautiful world AAAH

i'm actually a bit insane about stoppard's arcadia fun fact. it is such a bizarre and lovely play and maybe i did shed a tear over hannah's revelation about septimus being the hermit because of his grief over thomasina! also valentine is my dream man. sorry haters!

i have been full of productive energy this past 24 hours and i alternate between using it for forces of good (aka writing multiple final essays for the semester) and forces of chaos (aka drawing like my life depends on it). the chaos usually wins. help

COMMS! they are lowkey open!! this style (halfbody/portrait, simple background, u get the vibe) as for pricing i’m very flexible — i do ask a minimum of $15 (usd) but from there it’s up to you!

a young tess from @rachelhartmanbooks.com ‘s tess of the road, a book that is very near and dear to my heart. i drew another young tess back in 2021 but i’ve been thinking about this book recently so i thought i’d do an updated version

college last week of classes KICKING MY ASS
