My favorite artifact in the "you don't need AI to do art" discourse is, of course, screenwriter Dan O'Bannon's sketch of the facehugger to explain it to Giger.

Amy Klobuchar running for Governor of Minnesota

Explaining to my husband what long Furbys are and it conjured this classic from JP Brammer

you don't have to be intimidated by anyone ever btw like there really isn't a soul that warrants it

Vance undermining the US Olympic Team would be too on the nose

I started singing "Coal Miner's Daughter" today and broke down laugh-crying in case anyone wanted a mental health update

wish I had incorporated this in my fabricated magical realism review

time for springy snakes to bounce back in a huge way

I will post my way to Utopia. for us all

I walk thru the mall a lot lately (don’t ask) and I just saw some bonafide mall goths. had to stop myself from clapping for them like troops in the airport

trying to locate the sitting president of the United States energetically for a hex

Threads is I think currently the most important social media platform because it's the only one where the witches have discovered the magical barrier protecting Trump from harm. it's not a barrier of his own making btw it's apparently an Outer God's doing

the things I say while making small talk astound me. very nice man in this coffee shop in Oklahoma started chatting with me and I was blabbing about how much I miss walking in NYC and hate driving and when he got up to leave I signed off with "you be careful on the road because I'm out there" ????

The only review of “Melania” I needed (to google “apophatic” while reading).

posting my writing online always feels like the part of The Phantom of the Opera where he pops up out of nowhere and says “I HAVE WRITTEN YOU AN OPERA…”

JIG OF LIFE BY KATE BUSH!

I am going to Cambridge UK in a couple weeks omg what is... a Cambridge thing to do... besides learning, which I have no interest in, ever.

I said "ooh I like your gold necklace" one time in front of my friends and they called me "Covetous Smaug" for months

apparently there are dangerous pesticide levels in Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea which makes perfect sense and would explain my Whole Deal. I believe plastics and pesticides are speaking thru me even in this moment

Colleen Hoover, chugging from a bottle of sancerre:

Hanya Yanagihara in 2015:

writing a frankly harmful novel

my next project I believe is getting every comped influencer surgery and seeing what I look like at the end

this is the essay btw. a hair transplant clinic was giving out free procedures to influencers. I just so happened to have always wanted to see Istanbul and to have an addiction to complimentary hair transplant consultations. I liked a doctor telling me I was crazy for free www.gq.com/story/i-was-...

I'm going to wear a bald cap and do it I think

a Canadian morning show wants to interview me about my GQ essay in which I got an unnecessary hair transplant in Istanbul because I got addicted to complimentary hair transplant consultations and while I'm flattered I struggle to see this ending well for me. chance of becoming a Canadian meme.

I love when my phone updates and everything is slightly uglier and worse

I need an animatic and an acted out version of this as soon as humanly possible. dadaism is back, baby

hmm the world's richest man posting this makes me want to grab a pitchfork and put on a bonnet and march on a castle wall #peasantcore

time to sleep AKA clock in for my shift at the "Is God Evil?" factory

I knew I was evil before I knew I was fruity. come to think of it the two are totally unrelated. well I've made a fine mess of this prompt. kindergarten, though. I knew I was host to something ancient and horrible during arts & crafts

my toxic trait is how much I miss Terrace House

eating crab sticks feeling like a pelican

a flop vacation is kind of funny. I went to relax and was an insomniac for a solid week, lost my mind, everything went wrong, came back to the airport looking nasty as hell fhskfjjsjdjdjd

Absurdism is so back

“We are all capillaries in the body of empire… We are those hair-thin tubes ferrying oxygen from heart to brain to limb in a body that doesn’t know our names. That’s not interesting. That’s the problem.”

hitting the phrase “adjusted slightly for regionality” almost made me spit my coffee out in the diner

Helluva post but I must lightly push back @jpbrammer.bsky.social - THIS was worth our time 🙏

the fact that he was my gay awakening =/ briefly got me into twinks, which is evil.

I often think of Cleopatra’s daughter who was paraded through Rome after her mother and father’s defeat but apparently delivered such a charismatic performance in the parade that the people demanded that she be spared. the highest-stakes standup routine in history perhaps

I think we could breathe life into Valentine's Day if we came together and hammered it out. I think we could come up with some Rituals. some stuff to blow up. some new recipes.

Medium Melania who has a TV show where she tells fortunes and claims to be able to solve murders with her dreams and wears a turban and is arrested on completely unrelated charges of fraud

returning to the chicken place where I almost choked to death on a bone last week. when it’s good it’s good

This is some good food for the people

Uh, holy shit. Surreal and absurd and the most relatable and affecting thing I've read in a while

Making art in the end times is a strange and beautiful thing.

Now THIS is “writing”!

This whole article *is* something I care about (do you?)
