I love love love LOVE this new apartment. Absolute Marvel TV, Luke Cage/Daredevil/Punisher vibe. Like Center City Philly. And NYC. No signing guests in and out. No Home Forward or Central City Concern sticking their big strange noses in. Just regular people in a regular, quirky old building. Home.

New Luke Cage-style apartment downtown just dropped. Reminds me achingly of NYC and Philly. I get to wake up slowly and unpack. No hoarder junkie prostitute roommate walking all over me. It has been 22 years of similar. No more. HARLEM IS MINE 🤣

"Rise up, Phil Dick. Cold hand clutched round that steel anarch-stick. Pick it up quick.Now bend the bow. Get up & Go. From the cold-forged velds of Void, From battlefields I cannot pronounce, Call up the ones you trained, Call up the poisoned metafiction dead, & cast them out of orbit once again.."

Downtown is Super-Abled Human Land.I think in panels. Letters by Steve Ditko!Pencils By Jack Kirby!Everybody pulls me for supe work.Kids trying to do jail support for their buddies at the Justice Center.Unhoused trying to stop freaking out long enough to find the Shell station.I am Lesion. I am home

get the kid in the brown hoodie a scholarship

GALACTUS IS COMING. WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE. BORING. BORING. DAY ENDS IN "Y."

"I'm so depressed, I can't even blink." ---Bill from 'King of The Hill,' spitting bars of fire

Blue Twitter.I make one post about the horrible, racist things that white culture has said and perpetuated about the Vodou earth-religion for hundreds of years,and I get white shitlibs who just saw "White Zombie" or"Black Magic" or "The Serpent and the Rainbow" for the first time and have thoughts

Not everyone can pull this off. It helps to look like the stunt double of the Night King from back there on the old Game of Thrones. I often demand that road-ragers get out of their cars. It's the toughness-to-distance ratio. Apologies a foot away. Fifty feet away: "I'LL KICK YOUR BLAH BLAH.." 🤣

"It's been hard, the writing, lately. Just comes in beautiful fragments like nods, now. Guess I'd rather just sleep forever this sleep, and forget. But the gnats keep buzzing in my ear. And the heat. And the dreams..." ---poet Jim Carroll

I'm helping Floof acclimate to wearing a harness, SO WE CAN GO OUTSIDE, and I'm prrrrrretty sure I got him to the point of forgetting he's wearing anything at all.

If you know, you know

Today's adventures in fucking with the dog. She is outraged but can't figure out how to get out from under the blanket.

this is the quality of writing that makes me glad there are social media <3

Those aren't really ducks. Look at the eyes. The-- (duck bill begins growing from my face) MMPH MMPH. LOWWWRYYYYY...

PEEEEEEEEEEETS

Moving. The rest of the money to do that is sitting in my account right now. Along with a little more for groceries and meds. Crying. I got up the rest by being the best bouncer you ever met in your life. Life is beautiful. Amituofo. Please allow me to demonstrate the skill of Shaolin

"Next To God." 5100 words. Beloved Eighties German TV wet-on-wet oil painting master and inventor of the Happy Tree, Wilhelm "Bill" Alexander... versus The King In Yellow. Wade Wellman looms over my shoulder like a buffalo, mumbling in his mustache about the powerful sermon he just heard.

"Mastery means transforming unbelievable pain and agony into billable hours. More. Gimme. GIMME." ---WAY OF THE GATE, Chamber 1, 'On Suffering' #wip

When I wake up, the other side of the bed is cold and I am a mushroom. My gills expand, seeking Prim’s warmth but finding only the rough strands of a mycelium network. She must have transformed into spores and floated out the window with our mother. Of course, she did. This is the day of the reaping

MY OUTRAGE IN THE MOMENT IS WORTH MORE THAN ALL OF RECORDED HISTORY. MANAGER. YOU GET ME THAT SHAKESPEARE HACK'S MANAGER RIGHT NOW OR I AM GOING TO STAMP MY FOOT UNTIL I BECOME RELEVANT OR USEFUL TO SOCIETY

didn't Obama sue Arizona in 2012 and SCOTUS gave the federal agents ultimate authority over immigration enforcement which is why democrat governors can't stop ICE?

OMG

SOMETIMES, CRAZY EDDIE SPEAKS THROUGH ME

New Block Source: People who censor swear words so that Mama Bluesky won't swat their wittle hyner. Tells me everything I need to know. I do the same thing with people who cuss-bleep rap records on YouTube. No use for those who can't say what they mean

If this does not rip one's heart out thru one's face, there is something deeply wrong about one and one has no soul

"Take the hippo for a walk in the Park Blocks, through Portland State University. The nearest campus. Where people learn things. Where hippos don't charge... but scratch Meaning in the careful dust of the pavement with feet that once were fins." ---WAY OF THE GATE, Chamber 1, 'On Suffering'.

"The most internal of Martial Arts is the control and strengthening of the tool between your ears." ---WAY OF THE GATE, Chamber 2, Verse 5 (*last edits, #wip )

I don't know if I'll see that movie. I mean, how much do they actually wuther?

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

Not Christian—Un-American—Trumpian—MAGA Republican

Blocked Stephen King and Mark Hamill in one day. Give me some Led Zeppelin stans for a side dish. Oooh, wait, no, second-stage Neil Gaiman fans, I've been a bit constipated. They should get the mail moving after I eat two or three of their faces off. 🤣

Cartoon by Dave Granlund

IRL. Founding Honkies: "Oh, this is just fascinating. Just fascinating. Tell me more about this 'bitcoin.' Hey, Thomas, he likes 'em young and disadvantaged, too. He's mad crackerish. He's LIKE US." 🤣 You can go ahead and block me. America was evil when the first slave ship dropped anchor

That Rasta looked at me like I was Toshiro Mifune. Taking that to work. ICE are not welcome in Farragut Park. Or their stans

Talk. "Run Away to Mars." Matt Maeson. "All My Wars." This song. All three, at different times, playing twenty feet away when I realize I have mastered something at my job that makes me look to another person as though I am performing sorcery. I am. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MrTz...

Customer:"You got a better idea for naming the event?" Me: "YACHT ROCK MESHUGGAH BOOT PARTY AND CONGRESS OF SORROWS. YACHT ROCK MAXIMUM SECURITY IN WHICH I SIT LONELY AND DREAM FREEDOM. YACHT ROCK WITH THE--" Customer (leaves.) Me (falls over laughing.) 🤣

Re-rewatch of Kurosawa's "Seven Samurai." Following the American version. It always hits my heart like a cinderblock made out of work-relevant things. "Yeah, what the hell, I'll drive your hearse for ya.." 😭

*I am the Goth Wyatt Earp. (*according to a White Eagle customer.) David J from Bauhaus once heard some stuff I wrote about a superhero with MS and told me he "dug my passion." That is so many Goth points I have other, smaller Goths orbiting me with clove cigarettes

New tenant:"Well,sorry about your MS." Me:"I'M NOT. There was this great comedian named Bill Hicks who got pancreatic cancer and learned to see it as a gift,because he could say anything he wanted in his act.That's me with writing. With bouncing. With...me." Stops because my eyeliner is running. 😭

BAKED. I couldn't even get through this whole joint. Thirty-dollar ounces of bud that do this to an MS patient, just north of Lombard Fred Meyer. Oh, look, they used the one I go to for the ad. www.thedimestore.net

The Three Gates of the Buddha: Is it TRUE?? Is it KIND?? Is it NECESSARY?? Hiya, BlueSky. Go think about that a little bit. I got stuff to do
