Sonnet for Old Dyin’ Dirt
Ain’t no one out on they porches no more
All them folks I got to know past summers
This winter past done crept through they screen door
Shook em out roadside, ambulance thumbers
Too many nieces and grandsons outside
Crawled out from they big city hidey-holes
Heirs to silt in the Elk River’s riptide
Their barely-canary parents now coal
And ain’t that just the turning of the crop
The inferno in the forest to clear
Them hot fast flashes lash bottom-to-top
Returning the land to the dogs and deer
We all gonna grow, we all gonna hurt
Layin down roots in this old dyin’ dirt

I’m still unclear as to whether hashtags are a worthwhile endeavor on here. Wanna read some #poetry ?

Coding is interesting because you can do a really bad job and a lot of stuff will still work lol I do my level best to not think about or know any of the behind the scenes shit about this place. I’ve had all the staff blocked for a long time. There was a time, before the great migration when it was

Toni doesn’t have the juice to be the nightmare that some others are. I’m by no means singing his praises, he’s just like… about as low on my estimation of threats in that realm as they come. Tbh I’d actually say Jay is worse in terms of drinking the Silicon Valley koolaid

Tbh the present CEO sucks too so idk, it’s probably fine. There’s normal CEO sucks that I’m prepared to deal with and there’s full stop supervillain ceo stuff that I dip from

Before anyone comes for me:
I absolutely languished over the choice of which famously hyper-liberal college to use here. My heart wanted to use New College of Florida but I didn’t think anyone would know it.
I’m a trans punk musician. Fuck whoever and however many you want, it’s a joke 🤙

A light purple teddy bear wearing a glittery black cloak and witch's hat. A key acts as the clasp on his cloak, and he's posed with one arm pointing toward the viewer.
The same teddy bear, now sitting and facing the right to show his pointy little hat.
i've got six handmade teddy bears still up for adoption, including Mulligan! check him (and the rest) out here: www.bearpile.com/theplumpeddler

Probably is, we’re always the bottom of the food chain. So long as people in non-creative fields are robbed by oligarchs, we won’t be getting paid. When everyone is scraping by, artists are straight up starving

Yeah, as the rest our our jobs crumble theirs just get busier lol I almost threw in plumbers, but tbh poverty has forced me to learn a lot about doing my own plumbing so they’re probably not in an ideal spot either

BREAKING: Donald Trump just betrayed every fan who’s been exploited by Ticketmaster.
This fine is less than 1% of Live Nation’s revenue last year AND lets them continue to rip off fans with a 15% “Ticketmaster Tax." It's wrong.
We need to break up Ticketmaster and Live Nation.

lol that’s fair, but Christ what a short time to be immortal before being a whiny baby and throwing yourself (ineffectively) into the sun. Melancholy dipshit, go pick up a new hobby. Learn to code or something

lol I’ve got two songs (“Diamondback Rattlesnake Venom” and “Alafia River Song” respectively) that my fans have dubbed “the blowjob song” and the “eating pussy song” and was that my initial intention in writing them? The world will never know. I’ve embraced the labels 🤣

I understand they’re in a tough position financially but supporting both PBS and NPR is hard when they keep shilling for AI trash.

Amy Pond (Karen Gillian) dressed as a pirate holding a cutlass
It’s not consistently a pirate character but Amy Pond does dress as a pirate at one point and if that counts, definitely her.
