Everything I post here is on Bluesky too. Please come! Kevin Maloney dropped a piece about writing which speaks to the questions writers often have about their own work — like, “Why would anyone want to read this?” — and then just writing anyway. bit.ly/3BZr9yJ

From Bloop by, Kevin Maloney, in Horse Girl Fever CLASH Books “Fake meat smell fills the backyard, and our families, or whoever these people are, pantomime what they remember of the world.”

I recognized so much of my teenage self in this piece. And, since I’m writing and reading so much about s*x work and alternatives to traditional work, this line stood out. “I am leaving hard work behind. I am becoming noticed and named.” Really good (and quick) read.

The thing that’s made me maddest today (and I just found out that basic treatment for my medical BS will cost $3k/month out of pocket) is this shit. Zuckerberg is just trying to make his stocks drop now.

Unpopular opinion: the visual direction in the new Severance is not working for me. The increase of contrived gimbal swoosh shots & video game-like fast-moving scenes reminds me of the old pink panther intro but with less charm. Can we go back to before? youtu.be/HhHwnrlZRus

Never in a million years could I have predicted that the cruel chores my mother made me do as a child (like cleaning all the baseboards with a Q-tip before playdates) would fuel the roleplays I come up with for the subs who call me looking for punishment 😅 #thanksmom!
