just happy to be here 🥰

Open for general subs through September 13th (which is also our dear @terrilinndavis.bsky.social’s bday so give her something good to read)! www.icebreakerslit.com/submissions

how annoying that i’m never on here so my whole presence is just me reposting my own work. here’s a post where i say something different, like i think you’re all really hot and talented. mwah.

You’re gonna want to read this one!

"When I told people about this fear, they’d laugh and I’d laugh and I’d say, “I know, I know” and I’d do this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and we’d move on." We're FUCKING THRILLED to publish "Megalohydrothalassophobia, or Something" by the wildly talented @aubrirose.bsky.social 🗿🌊😱 poolpartymag.com/megalohydrot...

This is one of my favorite things we've published yet on Pool Party. Stop whatever you're doing and read it. @aubrirose.bsky.social is 🔥. Soooooooo good!!!

Aubri (seemingly) reached into my brain, pulled out a bunch of my favorite things, and made an incredible story of them. I would lose it all at the Space Casino.

i have two moods and they’re actually kind of similar so nvm

it’s a good day to submit some collaborative work, don’t you think?

Find a friend and get weird 🛸💜

i want to write but i’m uninspired so i think i’m gonna play the sims and dissociate instead.

i am SO JEALOUS of everyone who gets to be here. look at this line up. LOOK AT IT.

i am officially having more fun over here than i am on the bird app.

“The problem is that I'm never sure who’s left or right we're talking about: mine or the screw's?” i laughed out loud twice. so good.

For those of you who don’t know us, HI! We’re not gum. We’re a lit mag that features collaborative work (stuff by two or more humans). We like witchcraft and easy bake ovens. We like you. We want everyone to play together and have fun.

Here's one that I was lucky to have published this year in Pithead Chapel! pitheadchapel.com/a-series-of-...

Now feels like a good time to mention that we are currently open for general subs! Buddy up and send us your magic ✨ icebreakerslit.submittable.com/submit

Boosting this fab collab poem by @terrilinndavis.bsky.social and @aubrirose.bsky.social

can’t wait for the inevitable bsky exclusive HAD call 💀

spent the weekend popping into little coffee shops in the colorado mountains to read brian allen carr’s opioid, indiana and now i can’t stop thinking about it.

Icebreakers fam starter pack & still adding 🗣️ go.bsky.app/AFdqqxE

honestly just put me in a sensory deprivation tank for a few months.

well here i am i guess!

had something go viral over on the old bird app today so i’m hiding over here where i think it’s safe 🙈

reading your subs for our fantasy issue 🧚🏻‍♂️

If you’re a poet coming in from Twitter reply here and tag the poets who’ve also joined, let’s rebuild!

i can feel a poem brewing after a VERY long dry spell.

i joined twitter in early 2009. i was still in high school. i tweeted from a flip phone. i only knew a few others on twitter at the time - it felt like this super simple, ad-free platform for a handful of friends. i’m sad to see twitter go, but bluesky feels kind of like that to me right now 🩵

i’m supposed to hear a toilet flushing when i look at this, right?
