Zombie romance is cannicromantasy

Gonna fuckin howl at the moon naked like a werewolf every night for a year

Change your gender, become a poet, catapult yourself into the sun. There are no rules. You can do anything you want.

Looking at texts people are getting from their AI "boyfriends" and "girlfriends" and thinking we have really let love letters down as a genre.

stepping into my home airport Chili's at 7:30 AM to enjoy skillet queso beyond the eyes of man and god

No drafts. If it’s worth typing, it’s worth sharing with the class, don’t be a pussy. A drafts folder is a dusty storage unit, an albatross, a self-muzzling suppression of your SPEECH and POSTS. It’s where things go to fester. A compost pit. Drop it on the skyline, king.

The opposite of doomerism is determination. Or, as Marshawn Lynch once said, "Just run through a motherfucker's face."

I think if I met a mountain lion in the wild it would understand that I love it and would take a gentle nap curled up with me. If I met a bear it would understand my love but would not let me cuddle it. If I met a rhino it would neither comprehend nor care how I felt and would kill me immediately

Roses are red Plants love the rain We're a blood clot away From popping champagne. (Now I'm done again)

roses are red chocolate is nice read books, punch nazis moreover, destroy I.C.E.

Roses are red Kudzu’s ill-mannered When it finally happens We’re all getting hammered

Doomerism is a 2025 fad. I only get out of bed for hoperism now.

like a cozy local pub called The Horse & War Crimes

Me: *harmless low effort skeet*. A Man: ACTUALLY Me: *mutes forever*

The best thing about bluesky is when some man (because LET'S BE HONEST) leaves what he thinks is a crowning dunk on any of my skeets and I get to banish him to the Absentia place where he sees everything I post but, unbeknownst to him, I never have to think about him again.

Tfw your book gets critiqued by someone much smarter than you and afterward you just want to look directly into the sun for several hours (complimentary)

It was believed in medieval times that hedgehogs had spikes so they could roll over fruit to carry home to their children, which is not true but is a really cute idea

I'm just going to say a thing. What a person looks like is not reflective of their soul. Insulting the appearance of bad people who do bad things as an outcome or indication of their rotten hearts perpetuates the notion that conventional beauty = virtue, a myth that's led to untold human damage.

There are people who will see you and think 'maybe I can keep going too'.

Wait for it

This is your regular reminder that in the year 2000, Paul Rudd, with frosted tips, appeared in the Hong Kong film GEN-Y COPS as a bad guy (kinda). In the movie, he does martial arts, fights a robot, and, most shocking of all, does an entire scene in Cantonese.

JOHN WICK JOHN WICK JOHN WICK LET'S FCKING GOOOOOOOOOO #StateofPlay

yesterday I realized a problem that ruined my life *for years* started because I asked too many questions that were interpreted as opposition.

Bewildering to watch a woman feed her own gender the wolves, quite literally, then be shocked when they start eating her, too. There’s a long history of conservative woman thinking they’re special to men, then finding out they aren’t. She’s still ~just~ a woman to them in the end. Yikes.

Pay attention: to read a post, simply drag your eyes across the letters, and form the words in your mind. Try it now. Great job! You should be able to read posts now. Come back any time you need a refresher on reading posts!

Pro-tip: if you don't wear makeup very often just buy the travel size. Addendum: lol I'm literally a cream puff

But Meg how will I demonstrate my cultural relevance without holding up a plate full of someone else's vomit and then not washing my hands

Day 5 of the workshop has dawned and I'm over here doing the math on how to economize my life so I can just write and think about stories as much as possible. The operant conditioning has begun to take hold. #waywardwormhole

I know July is a long time to wait for a novella, but it's also a long time to wait for July to begin with so here we are

Everyone should look up jury nullification laws in their state specifically for these heroes

this is the most Queer As In FUCK YOU story I've ever read in a mainstream magazine I'd describe it to you, but that would violate bsky's terms and conditions, so you should just go read it instead

please buy things from my shop i need money for living 👻 www.galdrecraft.com

There are a lot of people who are going to complain about being unfairly vilified by that halftime show and it's because they know in their hearts they're on Team Hate.

I, as a white Jewish queer woman, feel SAFER in a very diverse area with people from many cultures and languages. Because we’re all good at tolerance and being reasonable and letting people be. Whereas monocultures tend to excuse and enable their elites at the cost of everyone else.

Just realized that because I'm in Barbados my Google maps no longer uses freedom units and I suddenly have no idea how far anything is from anything else. A kilometer is like a hundred meters right How long is a furlong

My bag received a very serious and thorough welcome from a young drug sniffing dog, not because I'm carrying any illegal drugs but probably because he's never smelled a California sheep farm before.

I'm sorry the guy changing the rules on the fly is named what

No sleep + weltschmerz + the perpetual liminal space of which all airports are comprised = gettin weepy for no reason in seat 10F

Okay well this was a miss but hopefully an ADHD med + a cup of coffee will let me sleep a bit on flight 3/3. Almost there!

Human beings turning everything into dumplings is the culinary version of carcinization

You know why you bring your fancy pillow everywhere and never check it? Because when it's 5:30am clock time and 2:30am body time and you've been awake for about 22 hours you can just sack out on the airport floor before you get breakfast for flight #3.

Okay the burger wasn't that friendly tbh but it was friendly for an airport burger, you know what I mean?

I am in Phoenix Sky Harbor, "the friendliest airport in the world." I have two hours before my next flight. I am going to find the friendliest cheeseburger in the world.

Everyone please be very nice to @neolithicsheep.bsky.social, who is about to do 2 weeks of full time farm and pet care while I go to a writing workshop *after* being extremely nice to me during a couple weeks of various emotional and physical maladies. He's a good husband, y'all.
