Hi to our 500+ followers. Do literally any of you want to buy CanLit trading cards?

wrote a love letter to saskatchewan (my latest post on leftover drafts):

i wrote about wanting a front porch, and how much that feeling sucks sometimes. my latest leftover draft, on wanting or not to say hello:

big trouble in little pope

We’re just innocent men

Go get rejected! The momentary violent compression of hope into more flattening numbness when you could have had the one thing you truly fucking want in life. Nope! Not today! Maybe not ever! Become a writer! It's so life affirming

One more sleep until baseball. The eternal sleep. Death. Baseball is Hell. War is Hell. Baseball is War.

the cat is out of the bag. join gabe & me for two hours of weirdo creepy music (read: punk & metal), tuesday nights starting at 10pm ⛓️🤘🦇⛓️

tsk tsk. this could've been avoided with one quick trip to the writer's circle at his local bridgehead...

I wrote the @pitchfork.com Sunday Review on my favourite Black Flag album. Special thanks to my editorial personal trainer @philipsherburne.bsky.social for beating this into shape like a Rollins bench-press sesh: pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

i won't eat them in boots i won't eat them in suits i won't eat them with an axe i won't eat them with a tax another round of dumb slogans and ham i do not like them, pierre-i-am

the undisputed king of "bookish" fantasy baseball team names, checking in.

when you read classic literature but at yr heart's core, yer just a canadian scumbag:

Transphobes are such fucking losers, dude. It’s wild

a french-cuban fusion restaurant called "chez guevara"

just call it what it is, you wimp: a threat of annexation by means of economic force. the moment you adopt & normalize the language of the oppressor, you've lost.

yr new favourite poet has joined the chat...

GREASE THE POLES & SCALP THE BUS SHELTERS. THE BIRDS HAVE DONE THE UNTHINKABLE.

slowly working to get away from streaming services. first of many future bandcamp friday hauls:

Fuck this city inhabited by bloated, pasty, lugubrious motherfuckers grazing the stony fields like cows to the slaughter. There's no respect here. No order. Just a cacophony of self-catering asshats shuffling along while muttering "I'll get mine" and "Not in my backyard" Jay Gobuty (1990-2024)

in grade 6 I firefucked a red-box Buick to prove to all the boys I wasn't S A W F T. i learned to shotgun beers because my dad could do it nd if you ever saw him on a ski-doo, you'd know he's not S A W F T @dd6669.bsky.social

a collections agency put me on hold today and their hold music was "if i had a million dollars" by the barenaked ladies and it was more tragically poetic than anything i've written in my whole-ass life.

really looking forward to seeing topanga again tn 😤

the name san juan implies the existence of a san two.

outrageous was conceptualized following my suicide attempt. It is as simple and as complicated as, I wanted to do whatever I wanted... and perhaps someone would think that was cool as fuck along the way... I resolved that my vision of a wild gathering of fools... would change my life. - EJ Burns

To all my pro wresting loving friends, I’m happy for you or sorry that it happened.
