I feel like sometimes the general lit community is helped by the reminder that editors are people, and also that if you are unhappy with the wait at a particular venue you can simply withdraw your work and take it elsewhere

so amazing what Doing The Freakin' Readings does for your grades in college. one wierd trick, etc. 😅

This was me in the sleepiest Neoclassical/Romance Poetry class you could ever imagine. 5pm class and felt like the room was being gas-anesthetized by the SWAT team every day and only me and the prof were immune. c'mon kids this is some of the prettiest lit you'll ever read if you just would read it!

this looks great! is there an alt build for the batcycle?

Photographs of a dinosaur-looking bird, the shoebill, and popstar Sabrina Carpenter, overlaid with a height comparison showing both are 152 cm, with visual graphics saying the magazine's name SSWAGGER and some Chinese characters

Photographs of a shoebill and popstar Sabrina Carpenter overlaid with a height comparison showing that, yes indeed, both are just 152 cm

I can't even begin to describe this photograph. I think that might be Taylor Swift on a night out with Sabrina Carpenter. But Sabrina is photoshopped to have a shoebill face and talons, with wing-tips coming out her coat but still Sabrina's hair

Just incredible shoebill awareness-raising from this Hong Kong teens' magazine

I LITERALLY TYPED THIS OUT LOL

"The Wrendolyn Discoball Transflag platform is young and still has space to listen and grow.." etc etc 🤢

yeah! huge commitment to get out to weekly meetings in the city!

as long as I can gallop into a column of light and float around with my horsie while reality collapses that sounds pretty cool

I am always thinking about the young person who is bombarded with the message that difference is “deviance.” I want our library to be a place where they can freely imagine and safely explore alternative ways of being in the world.

omg I love your lil ska earring! 🏁

👀 I'll have to read! Jeff Vandermeer simply isn't trans enough (sry jeff) to do the chimeric fic I need!

"oh baby, it's happening! your yolk broke! 🎉"

promote authors, make connections to left publishers, and offer a big tent curriculum that will connect people between chapters and build ties with engaged activists who aren't down with membership (or not down yet). It seems bizarre to me that a well-resourced org isn't already doing this.

poly-ed is a bad move. With a tiny bit of investment from national (lol, as if) these groups could be coordinated and organized better, be able to curate and publish syllabi and all the other resources and slide decks (homework is fun!) facilitators create, clear e-copies of readings, host and

reading groups, due to size or lack of experience or whatever. My groups would have folks from NOLA, Oregon, one person was a literal carnie doing itinerant work while raising a kid. I think having a few local workshop-like groups is great, but abandoning the capacity for high-quality remote

my guess: the endless parade of people "lawyering" the facts of the tattoo/timeline/"did he know?" to excuse him reduced the threshold for a knee-jerk response to any further countenancing.

the millennial retirement home is more ready to dismiss anyone who worked for blackwater as irredeemable too

Season finale aired, I can solidly endorse Starfleet Academy. After the reactionary debacle of the recent Strange New Worlds season, it’s good to find something to love in new Star Trek again.
