i saw a beta read request in a discord server for someone's NRM manifesto. before you ask, yes i want to, but 171k is a big commitment and everyone knows enlightenment is found on free-to-read wikis from the 00s

this record is basically my dad so it's weird that i just found out today the remaster released a month ago. open.spotify.com/album/6s8BTR...

if i really wanted to, i could probably wrestle enough people to get this novella-ish thing i'm working on into print. but that idea gets more... sickening? by the day. they'd probably try to make me start a newsletter.

all #writing advice sucks. never listen to it. go to a class, join a workshop, find a critique partner even though those probably won't work either. just write a lot and keep doing it until it's good.

idk if they still do this but there was a strange process between 2012 and 2016 in underground edm music where EPs began having fewer and fewer songs. many EPs were under 15 minutes, and some toward the end had only two songs. which of course, is a single, not an EP.

i'm in a weird spot cause my favorite part of vampire the masquerade is the mythical history-- book of nod, antediluvian stuff. but i like when those things are implied and spoken of in hushed tones, not when an antediluvian wakes up and is a boss fight, or you find a complete annotated book of nod

i was never much on tumblr, and the strange aeons channel is how i learn about these things but my god, this is good stuff. like 100% serious, this might be a favorite for horror comedy. i can only strive for such mastery of tone, pacing, medium, character. www.youtube.com/watch?v=57Sj...

finally reading borges's ficciones, and truly i am not good enough to be his fake. the virgin scp-140 vs the chad tlon, uqbar, orbis tertius. the ability to pick such particular details about a world and explore them to their conclusion, truly chefs kiss.

besides being a frothing-at-the-mouth scp foundation fan, there has always been a world of nightmares in the back of my mind. living with psychosis is like that. cosmic horror was always a nice outlet for that. hoping that there was a way to express that nameless thing to someone else. #writersky

Only a few days left to back ACES AND AROS! ...... also, I get more money if we hit our $70K stretch goal, which would be very nice 😅

somehow it feels a woeful understatement to say: palestine deserves to live. the genocide must stop. ceasefire now. we've known this is unacceptable. no more complicity, no more debate. free palestine.
