The #TarotCardOfTheDay today is the #PageOfCups.

Today is a day for new ideas. Feeling creative? Go with it. Not feeling creative? Maybe sit with it for a while and see what happens… where will your mind go.

Them: I used ChapGPT to find a dinner recipe.

Me: Oh, wow, so you like poisoning black neighborhoods so you can cook… *lowers reading glasses*…a roast chicken that’s still too dry. Wow.

I submitted to two new-to-me journals today (wee!) and signed me & my boo up for one of @gr8earlofhell.bsky.social workshops!

@greywarlock.bsky.social and I met in college, during our English degrees, so doing writing workshops together is actually like date night 🌈😍

i have three very sweet poems that are about queer self love, individual and community care/survival. Putting it into the ether: I will find them a home ❤️ This is a promise to myself.

I haven't unsubscribed from Dick's sporting goods garbage emails because I keep getting subject lines that say "Dick's flash sale!" and it makes me giggle. WHAT.

I've mostly switched to a physical journal this year, in an effort to become less reliant on digital storage/unethical companies.

It's nice to have something so precious to hold and touch, to carry with me, to scribble and doodle, to scratch on. Do recommend. You can hug your poems!

notes from my journal (7/1/24):

If I had one of those cloth measuring tapes I could find out if my thighs are thicker than my big head Thick thighs save lives thick thighs take lives what does a big skull do besides crack open//

notes from my journal (7-7-24):

I try to be happy that
she is happy
and happy without me
still
I hope those old poems
stay lost
somewhere on a dusty floppy disk
or yellowing college-ruled spiral

What is the timbre of a voice you've never heard

all poems are love and grief

(I love musicians still, but we all need a bitter divorce poem sometimes)

(sick burn) notes from my journal (date unspecified, but 2025):

what a tragedy
to marry a musician
and learn that
lyre and liar
have no practical difference

USA FROM 💔🇵🇸 @zozz971.bsky.social · 1d

I’m trying to rebuild what the war destroyed, but its scars still haunt my life
I suffer from the effects of famine and displacement and need medical rehabilitation.
My family is still struggling to survive amid pain and deprivation
Please help me save what’s left of us🙏💔
