A toilet in someone’s front yard with a plant growing out of it
I can’t explain it but this is what Bluesky is
Had a great fucking Saturday. Hope yours was good.
I’m taking the beginning of your novel and making it mine, I’ll make a few changes, enough to distract and no one will know that I’ve stolen it from you. But I’ll know, and I like to think, in some beautiful way, you’ll know too.
Loved this one.

I have a new little piece up at Citywide Lunch about my psychedelic journey. It isn’t as stupid as it sounds, I hope.
If you want less sensation, go on Lexapro.
Remember the guy who caught his girl cheating and tried to fight the dude but got punched so hard he pooped his pants?
I like being alive because it is all I've ever known

This is such a lovely little release. I adore how he devoted this album to his entire family. He conveys thankfulness in such a tender, affectionate way. Really beautiful. Thank you John.

I legitimately have no idea what is going to happen from second to second, and I appreciate this level of mind-fuckery

Stellar prose poetry. Major Jacques Vallee vibes. I’m partial to UFOs. I’m partial to UFO #15.
The wonderful folks at Bruiser have published my “dosed cop” tale and I couldn’t be more proud.
This ain’t no PCP. It’s something else, said the boiling point between his temples.

I find it offensive that Laura Loomer shares the same name as the excellent My Bloody Valentine song from "Loveless." And, judging from the fact that she was born in 1993, two years after "Loveless", means that My Bloody Valentine has an excellent defamation case against her.
Passenger by Eva Alter At fourteen, acutely and newly voiceless I became preoccupied with the basking shark. From an animal family typecast as vicious and soulless and yet itself chiefly passive, it is a creature of pilgrimage, traveling far and slow with the brackish seasons and tides. How analeptic, I thought, to drift from place to place without affliction or care. At fourteen, the basking shark’s liminal, perpetual fate as a simple tourist on this Earth, its life predetermined as transient, stirred my jealousy and fascination. Enduring what felt at that age like limitless suffering, I imagined myself drifting in the vast seawater for eternity, thoughts aimless and opaque, so close to oblivion— yet still entirely corporeal and spirited. Little to think about, little to harm me. Just that endless and boundless ocean. Open and certain as a void.
![Kismet by Eva Alter
“because a woman’s body
is a grave;”
Dedication to Hunger, Louise Glück
I learned how to do it at fourteen,
that brutal undoing
of desire— a violent purification
ritual, my own;
to rid myself of my person,
temporarily yet entirely
[to rid myself of my soul’s detritus]
that porcelain door going nowhere
but down down down.
I knew I was septic.
Knew my skin had been
made into rot
[knew I had to bear it anyway]
and decided to barter my fate
sacrificing myself to that chasm of
dreck.
Once became dozens became thousands
each time an unwitting move
in some cosmic chess match against
God’s magistrate;
total expiration the loser’s reward.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:igqpg4uo55sdarp6dgayy4iy/bafkreignlen5tee4mkblpzbigz6csxsjopatdbvkcw2kacjv3bzskgw7v4)
