thanks to them, today their eclectic mix of sea shanties, soundtracks to new broadway musicals based on middling films, country line dance greatest hits, and le tigre mean i’m being driven insane for reasons that at least distract me from the day’s news

gay shame are san francisco’s MVPs. we’d be nothing without them and i’m being so serious

it’s a wonderful wife (happy anniversary to my wife @garfooble.bsky.social )

putting “felt it intensity III” in my dating profile

the only good personality quiz is the USGS Felt Report

not to be dramatic but i’m pretty sure i broke a years long curse this week. please clap

I think we gave filming podcasts a fair enough shake and can stop now!

i didnt mean for it to be a cosmic “i’m better than you” that i grew up in harry potter’s heyday and had no interest in it, but i did just fine!! i read a lot of other books!

it’s very funny to me that you can kind of lump harry potter in with stuff like the TSA and ICE in terms of like, it’s ubiquitous now but you know a world existed before 30 years ago right and children read stuff then, too

lindy hopper tells me im a groovy dancer: shut up nerd house dancer tells me i’m a groovy dancer: 🫨🫨🫨🫨😍😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩

quickest way to get me to cry is for me to interact with a trans teen who is clearly supported by their parents

this isnt the point, but…said who???

2000s-mcmansion-style palatial charter school. buncha SUVs parked ON a median. a company called “global healing” (it’s supplements)

in a car to the houston airport pointing out things to helen that make her go 🤨🤔

every band should have a hammond organ

this dream woke me up so i wrote it down

ok real question, am i right to find walking around at an art exhibit and posing with the artworks to be weird antisocial behavior or is that just me being elitist

Damn me, but all things are queer

i thought abt doing a feb post on instagram and then i remembered it was one of the most emotionally difficult months in my recent memory. i did take a lot of pics of professor tho heres some of my favs

who up grieving a person, place, thing or idea

it’s actually cool and fun to have an aging phone that’s slowly breaking down. i do it for ethical reasons and because it’s subversive and not because i’m getting older and more stubborn

so unglamorous to be a depressive in the decade of attention disorders

weading theowy

also no offense but i almost never want to know what is going on inside a dancer’s head. much love to my people but they are often much more brilliant without words

insta/tiktok really incentivize dancers putting what is essentially their artist statement ON the video of their work and it makes me so angry. imagine if you were watching a tv show & there was a commentary track running and you couldnt turn it off. or a play and the playwright had the mic. why!!!

thinking about this having watched both the general (1926) and the good the bad and the ugly (1966) in successive days

is there any civil war media with cultural impact thats about how awesome it was to be a good guy on the right side of history during the war or did the white south annihilate that as an option in its whiny bid for a cultural rehabilitation of its “culture”. media about literally the president aside

need to find a way to politely tell my 2018-era tumblr dork coworker to please stop playing sea shanties in the extremely hip cafe because it’s destroying the vibes

i feel about sf trad jazz the way i feel about sf bbq: people keep telling me no, this one’s actually good, but i still don’t like it. but like bbq and texas i assume when i hear trad jazz in new orleans one day i’ll love it

coming out to bsky as puerto rican with this post

thank u benito for becoming the world’s most famous boricua, it was rough for a while there while it was lin

i was recently on samuel delany’s website looking through his comment section, where he is an active participant. someone asked him how to write a great sex scene (he writes some of the best) and he said something like “describe carefully things you have done.” anyway just thinking about that here

i too am on this and the lumps hurt in a weird way to the touch and i stupidly got them basically right where my pants sit. no regrets

jazz musicians invented AND perfected “locking in”

the thing about jazz and swing in particular is that it rocks harder than almost anything when it’s good. the last 1:15 of this go so hard it makes me want to break something youtu.be/nkW0udiErI4?...

ok 2026 book log (blog for short) first book of the year. reads like horny earthsea (tho i dont read a lot of sword & sorcery so i could be “getting boss baby vibes”). delany has many agendas and hes not interested in hiding them, love that about him. great women characters, unusual for him!

should i start keeping a book log like some people do on here

whats up @xlenc.bsky.social let me write for orb!!!

anyone know if literally anything is ever going to be ok

you’re telling me bob bigged this boy
