"I won't call it a detonator. But after pressing the button, I scamper around the refrigerator, taking cover behind layers of sheet metal and white plastic finish from the machine's invisible munitions." In a miCRo essay, @ellenkfee.bsky.social takes us on a tour of the microwave's origin.

New today at @reckoningmag.bsky.social, "baby's breath" by @ellenkfee.bsky.social after @cwahmanholm.bsky.social. I love the swift, precise frame-shifts of this poem, and the territory of care it describes. reckoning.press/babys-breath/

thank you @reckoningmag.bsky.social 🌱💓

yeah i believe in traditional values (wearing my swimsuit top the regular way not the love island way)

Solidarity with trans kids and those who care for them.
