Yoooooo I just finished reading this and I’m shook!
@kjy1066.bsky.social
manages to pack so much here. This story is so rich in nostalgia and pain and Latin American folklore and culture and history and even more pain. Fuck. Read this, man!

I think what Karlo excels at is writing stories where pain is so much part of the background noise that it's overwhelming yet somehow not acutely felt.

Like a lot of Karlo's work, this story has a sadness woven throughout that at times feels eerily weightless until it finally settles on the reader's shoulders. Give it a read!!

Does anyone know anything about tenant's rights (Long Island, NY) for superintendants who are also living in the building? Have a friend who is dealing with a landlord/boss that is verging on racism and he just wants to know what his options are. Thanks.
