I LOVE BEING PERFORMATIVE!!!

I'm pouring one out for Dolly tonight.

I will miss you most of all, neon-pink jelly from Liliha Bakery

I forgot how really weird Bluesky people are about generative #AI.

Do you ponder the manner of things?

The word "ono" has no direct translation in English, and now I understand why

Nothing post. Of course they are aware of foodborne illness risks. Their job is to deeply understand the food system, and public firms have to disclose all business risks they can think of.

I hate to post corny ass genderslop but I will make an exception this one time All men want is to explain the Second World War to someone

I can't believe I'm in Hawaii.

TWITTER DOWN TWITTER DOWN

Claire Keegan seems to have this particular belief that you ought to rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.

Ya either earn out or ya burn out

Growth at all costs.

Do you ever think about how both commanders of the disastrous shuttle missions were named Richard

"I would never endanger the firm."

Death to hashtags.

TIL his name was Clive Staples. Are you fucking kidding me #booksky

My inability to manage my growing pile of unread books is why I suspect I'd be a terrible triage nurse #booksky

Vanilla soft serve is too plain on its own. Match soft serve is too bitter. But together they sing in utter harmony.

I am still quite sad about Imperial Pub.

#booksky If audiobooks are your preferred means of reading then more power to you. It's kind of a broken debate, honestly. But I think there are a few things we can all agree on that aren't often discussed. pharker.substack.com/p/audiobooks...

"And the sunshine's fine in the morning time; tomorrow is another day."

No one's hated anything as much as I hate my book right now... #amwriting #writerslife

Did we not used to dance?

Most meetings achieve nothing.

can't fully explain it rn, but eventually every pvp game becomes among us

I've decided that Project Hail Mary (2026) is actually really quite good.

No matter where you visit next, you'll find the same old slop. Did I fly out to Istanbul to watch white people shop?

If there is one things that the 2020s has taught us, it's that sometimes the geopolitically unthinkable actually happens.

If your birthday is May 25th, HMU

Call me Harlan. Some years ago—nevermind how long exactly— having little to no Gork in my booze cabinet, and nothing in particular to interest me in domestic liquor stores, I thought I would fly to Serbia little and see the Gorkity part of the world.

I AM NOT A SLAVE!

If you are a capitalist you should be in favour of universal healthcare.

God I hate the Government of Ontario

Y'know that thing people do where they stage a fake photo of them giving a "talk" at a "conference" and put it on their Linkedin to seem like important thought leaders? This is not one of those photos

By the laws of nominitive determinism it was probably inevitable that the first poet I really fell in love with would be Philip Larkin.

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam

But guesh what? My shun is talkin shuishide

Ugh, how I yearn!

staying in a fancy hotel for a few days is nice but nothing hits like returning to your shitty little apartment where all your garbage ass crap is

Not my tempo

I am perfectly down with people complaining about Christianity as a great source of evil or whatever. But I don't really understand people claiming that Jesus himself was, as depicted in the NT, a misogynist or whatever. Like, what? What are you talking about?

My body is screaming for a nap. I will resist.

You met me at a very Indo-Pacific time in my life

They're putting me into the Factory of Brutal Experiments tomorrow.

FUCK OFFFF

Report from Inkhaven on Day 15: Morale is low, energy is lower. All is despair.

Physical affection is extremely regulating to the nervous system.

I had some people round for dinner last night, and I tried to impress them with a sauce created from vodka, gravy and nitrous oxide. But all I've done is make myself an absolut laughing stock.

I apparently review science fiction and fantasy now. You should read Aurora (2015), it's flawed but it's pretty cool. #booksky
