in a better timeline, the @nytimes.com en español would publish a best spanish language books of 2024 list. in this shitty timeline, we get their 2024 best books list in spanish where most of the books are not available in spanish & only one of the writers is Latinx. www.nytimes.com/es/2024/12/0...

my latest, “shame boy,” is a beautiful song about growing up with a shaming, mentally ill parent in a world hostile to you & resisting & overcoming because sometimes that’s the only thing you can do. 😩💦👄🐔😈💗 www.corporealkhora.com/issue/29/sha...

Somebody is going to preach this on Sunday.

oh gosh, you should also be reading @aureleo.bsky.social — her stories are so bright and hot and frightening and funny and heartbreaking all at once; if confetti could do ballet

remember: you are a literary it girl.

my anxiety is evergreen & my depression is anything but seasonal.

some people have some nerve (and NO CLASS), jerking off dudes at a Regal Cinemas, in a city overflowing with gloryholes and truck stops.

this is your annual reminder that more first responders & cleanup workers, who were denied PPE, have died of 9/11-related illnesses than those who died during 9/11. this is your annual reminder that 7 million people have died from COVID. we need to honor those lives too.

ATTENTION fans of magic & also realism & also dangerous women, soul suckers & shapeshifters: check out this workshop led by me & maría alejandra barrios (preorder the waves take you home!) & victoria buitron (order across two hemispheres!) see below for info & DM to sign up 👻🧙

Bread Loaf has sent its covid+ workshoppers home w/o regard to increasing viral transmission unlike Lambda Writers’ Retreat, Sewanee Writers Conference and Tin House, each of which had robust covid protocols. it’s clear which conferences prioritize community safety & which are just a cash grab.

hurricane?! her, a bitch!

you go girl. it’s your world. 🫶

he’s serving pussy. he’s serving iconique fit. he’s serving nerve for your swerve. introducing: BARBENHOWER.

use your notes app as your mental status exam. for months now, my brain has been haunted by novel & memoir spirits & i wouldn’t have it any other way. 🥴👻💕

since no one is really on here anyway 😇, what’s your least favorite lit mag? you can drop a reason in the replies but you DON’T have to.

chatgpt is really great at writing blurbs. 😕

received a happy 4th of july text from one of my favorite writers (jj peña). 🇺🇸🥰 i like to think this is how james baldwin & maya angelou used to correspond.

me: so he calls & calls & calls, i’m not answering. i’m not participating in his drama. so he finally texts, “you’re going to burn in hell for what you did & you know exactly what you did, bitch.” it’s like you ruin one marriage & the world goes up in flames. my therapist: …

i keep giving the therapist gold like “the dick was so big that as i was doing a line of coke off it i had time to stop & reflect & realize: i’ve become my father” & all she responds with are leading questions like “is it important to you that i find you funny?”

current vibe:

omg look at the material y’all of this runaway (future) best seller anthology, which will feature one of my stories 😋💕🦄💜

i feel like this is a hate crime.

nobody likes a saltine.

Like many highly sensitive people, aureleo felt overcome by a sense of imminent disaster as The Social Media Wars approached.

fake news. nobody wants a drunk, racist blonde girl talking loud all night & then screeching at service staff because she’s sitting outside in colombia & there are flies.

your suspicions are correct. i will turn 50% of your children trans with a snap of my fingers a la thanos.
