“Sexy” is such a funny term to me. Sexish. Of, like, or pertaining to, sex. Sexesque. Redolent of the sex act. Sexlike.

really getting out of the sea at all was a huge mistake. having to transport our little rations of ocean inside ourselves forevermore, evolving spines and brains that need water to even run properly, leaking saltwater when we hurt, ridiculous. should have stayed squishy and in the sea. no bones

My new thing is only liking the 11th post in a thread, like I’ve done the real work, uncovered the true gem you only-the-original-post readers have thoughtlessly missed out on.

She strolled inta the joint. Under her coat, a dress that’d make an atheist confess. She glided up ta me on those clouds she called legs, with a question on the red satin pillows she called lips. She raised a bushy hedge she called an eyebrow and widened the slimy things of goo she called eyes

Okay novelists, enough with birds “wheeling” in the sky. It sounds cool, I agree, but it’s become the only way this is ever described. Over and over, during the course of a novel. I think we need to go back to “circling” for a while.

I want a restaurant that perfectly replicates the experience of the first time you go to a school friend's house for dinner. A plate of food where everything is just ever-so-slightly wrong, at a table with a family that is politely falling apart.

Dreamed I went to a class held at a modern art museum where we were studying a certain passage from a Dizzee Rascal song.
(I haven't listened to Dizzee Rascal since the early 2000s.)

I resent the sun coming out, as always, but I'm man enough to admit that the play of light on the choppy Hudson River wasn't the worst thing I've ever see. I didn't hate it. Though I hate the sun.
