Jesus fucked. Dang.

Men only want one thing, and it’s (to build a Dyson sphere to fuel themselves doing something) disgusting
I wish AI enthusiasts would admit to themselves and others that it’s about generating pornography and erotic chat bots and probably has a realistic android sex bot as a goal somewhere down the line, and leave the rest of us who actually want to have sex with real human beings alone.

A lot of writers talk about their greatest fear being the empty page but to me that’s nothing compared to mummies

The Jews I know who identify as centrists or liberals often handwring to me about antisemitism being a “both sides” issue, that I have as much to fear from non-Jewish leftists as I do from Nazis and other right wingers. 1/

When I am abroad, I make an effort to pick up a few basic phrases, like please, thank you, excuse me and use them almost exaggerated amounts. My wife calls this “faking it” but I call it “practicing”. In any case, here is my alignment chart of Europeans responding to efforts to speak their language.

Second day this week at the gym. Feeling a lot of discomfort with this process, working out, getting to know my body as an active part of me. I’m trying not to be too in my head about it. Just have fun. But it doesn’t come natural to me.

Thinking out loud. If I’m gonna continue on long form projects that I seek publication for, I also want to do some zines and newsletter work, so i can keep getting my writing out there, making connections and contributing to the culture.

Working on frontmatter of Dreams and Reality by Bessarabian anarchist-assassin-poet Sholem Shvartsbard/Baal Khaloymes (the Dreamer)
When I am silent, then the heart festers.
When I speak, then anger burns.
When I think, then I feel pain.
And when I dream, then I am corpse-pale.

Evil relies on all of us normalizing it, on us drawing a line from our own desires we feel comfortable expressing & acting on, and the crimes of the perverse and cruel. It is important to say no. To say it is sick and wrong to assault children. To sexualize youth and inexperience and defenselessness
for the record, i don’t believe that all men want is to assault teenagers without suffering consequences for it. i do however believe that if you’re a man who does NOT want that, this would be a GREAT time to get VERY FUCKING LOUD about it

Also, the huge Star of David that Batya Ungar-Sargon is wearing here while nodding along to “raping 15-year-old girls is not pedophilia” is *not* good for the Jews. I know it’s not the main issue here but it’s terrifying. Jewish right-wingers like Batya have walked U.S. Jews into mortal danger.
Anybody else had on their bingo card Batya Ungar-Sargon as helping MAGA classify 15-year-olds as not children to claim that pedophilia isn’t really pedophilia? I’m not surprised. Congrats to the 92nd St Y for including her on a panel the other week!

Happy Moby Dick Day! To celebrate, I highly suggest assigning a fearsome hatred for all evil in the world to an entity that has personally wounded you specifically and then dedicating your life to destroying it, regardless of whether that vengeance is likely or a good idea or even possible!
It is the 174th anniversary of the US publication of Moby Dick; or the Whale, by Herman Melville. Prepare for me to be insufferable
Life folded Death; Death trellised Life; the grim god wived with youthful Life, and begat him curly-headed glories.

No jinksing it, but I think I am a week away from finishing this novelette? I’m . . . Almost done? With a long form project? That can’t be right

Grappling with some serious existential & financial angst today. Friendly reminder I've got two fun books with big ideas out that cool readers seem to really enjoy. Would love for you to check 'em out, too
As a debut indie author, I’m really grateful to have found the readers I have with these two books. Would be honored to have them considered alongside 2025’s other great new releases!

@soniasulaiman.bsky.social hi Sonia! I don’t know if you remember me, we’ve chatted here and on the ol blue bird site a few times. Can I DM you? Basically I’m looking for Palestinian sensitivity readers for a project, and I wanted to ask for your help finding them, but no pressure, of course
