During the pandemic I built a dumb bot that would tweet all of Alexander Pope’s poetry, couplet by couplet, once an hour. I’ve now rejigged it for Bluesky, because I like having a hobby and the bot is I hope a harmless entertainment in dark times.
Ye trees, that fade when Autumn-heats remove,
Say, is not absence death to those who love?

If you've got any Bandcamp Friday bunce left over after copping the Los Thuthanaka album, consider my own wares! If you've enjoyed my music lately, supporting on Bandcamp genuinely helps me keep making it around the day job. Most albums are pay-what-you-want. I pray you want. maxtundra.bandcamp.com
