i keep listening to “absolute” on repeat and feeling closer to incoherent tears. i’m assuming i ought to trust the process.

it’s wild that the “wham! was more subversive than all of punk rock” argument is as old as wham. and one man, mr. scritti politti, put his punk band in the woodchipper to prove it.
i have a zine!!! dm if you want one
cyooooooot!!!!
any amount of horse trading to get rid of stephen miller is an unforgivable sin. no predicate is acceptable for his permanent removal from public life. abolish ice, defund dhs, free the camps, send all the architects to the hague. any less is treason to humanity.
please support me in my journey to make everyone read nightwood and dancer from the dance at the same time, to prove my theory that the latter is gay guy nightwood. thank you
what the meat puppets got right is that there's nothin at the top but a bucket and a mop and an illustrated book about birds
there’s a lot of literature, esp connected to McFarland’s “The Lost Words” on the disappearance of nature vocabulary from English
the last two centuries of literature could have prepared me for this but every moment is irreducibly new, apparently
now that i have successfully become a responsible and stable adult my entire fantasy life is about being a pleasure victim
compression socks are having a “i can’t believe i was missing The Vitamin” effect. not sure how i handled being enormous for so long without these
the other big revelation is that i was obsessively anti-war at the time. like i couldn't go a sentence without saying something about how war is evil and stupid.
found a poem from 4th grade where i say "i'm no lord byron," which is insane. how did i know that??? why did that occur to me?
i think chicago is different somehow but i really couldn't tell you for sure. i only know my own hell.
henry ford and lewis cass are the twin faced demiurge, ruling over soy fields and 6 lane roads and billboards that promise "you have nothing to lose but your pain." convinced they found a shard of the divine, the midwesterner drains a swamp and drives a car, triumphant when the shard goes dull.
okay so the thing about the midwest is that the entire built environment is hitler, there is very obviously a false world obscuring the real world, and everybody knows things they can't think. they're building an ark in their backyard about it. they received a vision but it's still evil.
i'm getting exploded by all fours. i feel like i'm supposed to have smarter literary reactions but instead i'm desublimating and losing my mind. she's just like me, for real.
found poems from when i was 17 and im dying
when i figure it out i’ll write my self help book: “accepting the middlemarch anti-climax thing after you don’t die in your twenties“
hearing an artist i admire doubt himself in familiar ways. breaks through something
without opinions on moody, but bowled over by the effect of john lurie’s reply in this

and you better believe i still felt horrible. just reminded that i can't actually quit or kms
something i love about my job is that i can be in an awful mood, just "look at a flower and hate it" pissed, and a child will (unrelatedly) decide to write me a letter about how i am kind and nice and have pretty hair
i know why everyone says t4t, the secret history of it all. but i won't tell anyone because it's really stupid.
We really shouldn’t exaggerate the power of the enemy. They are often stupid and fold at the first organized resistance. Their attacks are survivable.
I am being annoying rn but: it is not over for you after being publicly harassed. Your workplace can have policies (formal and informal) that protect trans employees from harassment. Many trans people continue to have public facing careers after being targeted by right wingers.
