2009 Zohran: I just want four walls and adobe slabs… for every New Yorker !

@FBI They’re stealing geometric patterns out of my imagination and putting them on Verso “Radical Thinkers” covers. Please look into this!!!

extremely important to have a friend who can Convince you

The New York Sirens are a great team to follow if your approach to spectator sports is “oh boy, I really hope we pull this one off!”

I am taking measures

What’s good dearest

Now that you mention it…

…and he opened a health food store called “The Radiant Radish!”

Writers Who Love Too Much New Narrative 1977-1997 Edited by Dodie Bellamy & Kevin Killian

Of course that makes for a satisfying if frivolous ending. What really happened was that the men and the truck disappeared except from my imagination. I had angry dreams. Even in my erotic fantasies I couldn't banish a violence that twisted the plot away from pleasure to confusion and fear. And what I resolved was this: that I would gear my writing to tell you about incidents like the one at Sanchez and Day, to put them to you as real questions that need answers, and that these questions, along with my understanding and my practice, would grow more energetic and precise. From “Sanchez and Day” by Robert Glück

I'm looking at what I'm writing. I don't need to ask what I can learn from it because it shocks me just to see it written, therefore real. This is the way I think. From “Wearing a Tough Jacket” by Marsha Campbell

He was new in town and didn't know where to go. I met him at the cigarette store and we just started talking. He talked to me more than most of my friends do. So I even told him my real name. I took him to the park to see the ducks. Later on the street he said he had a good time. It started raining and we both went home. That night I saw him at the disco I'd told him about. He looked all right, sharp like me. He was wearing a black sweater and smoking his new cigarettes. I asked him to come home with me. He thought about it for a minute and then he said o.k. I remember he liked the Mustang. When we got to my place I sat him on the bed and he ran his hand slowly over the spread. I got him a glass of water and watched him drink. When he got towards the end I couldn't see his mouth or nose through the up-tipped glass. I fell in love with his drinking brown eyes. The phone rang and when I came back he was gone. He left one contact lens on my dresser. His roommate told me he went back to Grand Rapids. I think about him all the time. “Jimmy” by Sam D’Allesandro

Obviously gold. Filled with really great (and sometimes previously unpublished!) gems. Feels like they’re not just writing about each other, but *to* each other. Plays like a personal history. I smiled and laughed and ached and took a lot of pictures of text ❤️

Today I’m trying to cure my minor ailment by drinking several different homeopathic solutions such as Diet Coke

Jack the Modernist

So people do, as the poet remarked, come here in order to live. Our necropolis with anvils of memory chained to every street and building, every tourist postcard view. All its sunsets and bridges and mutilated dawns. Haunted house of mortal dreams, ectoplasms flickering in obsidian windows. People come here to live, after all. You'd think they were here to die. Well, aren't we all. 'I will achieve grandeur,' remarked another poet, 'but not in this apartment.' Gary Indiana, DO EVERYTHING IN THE DARK

This is basically my mantra. Every time I'm about to post through it I remember I should be taking measures instead.

I hear it’s run by a butch trans woman…

Sal & Cookie’s Ultra Fine Diner in Bed Stuy btw

This morning I had a pancake so good I started getting scared

cool to release CASTRATION MOVIE on blu-ray and get seven films by Monika Treut up on the Criterion Channel on the same day, thanks to everyone who has supported @muscledistribution.bsky.social over the past year

Castration Movie blu ray from Muscle available now on the vinegar syndrome website. limited to 500 with art by Remy Boydell.

He has another Kathy caricature in Resentment who (iirc) spends half a reading making unintelligible dolphin noises while her cult audience eats it up. Tova’s maybe his meanest bite though

i’m glad people like my rep programming 🙂

Confuses me when people valorize their Mets fandom like it’s proletarian solidarity. When I’m watching baseball I don’t want it to resonate with my own mixed fortunes 💔 That’s what every other New York sports team is for ❤️

Judy…

Totally depends on what the item is. Like if it’s a $15 sandwich that’s actually $20. But if it’s a $15 shirt? $10.

MAMDANI: And I just think that there are barriers, barricades, to helping Americans that we can break down
TRUMP: Uh huh
MAMDANI: And breaking down barriers? Reminds me of a certain Broadway show *smiling widely* where they worked together to break a barricade?
TRUMP: *sitting bolt upright* Phantom

Wow dude your postmodernist masterpiece is a multimedia hodgepodge both symptomatic and representative of an unnavigable and overwhelming mass culture? That’s soooo cool ❤️ Can I come over to your place when this is over
