Oh yeah, I have this poem. But, in a good way?
hate how you can write the hell out of the poem and then the last two lines are like a landlord walking in and saying “yeah you’re not getting your deposit back”

If Scabby is out, there should be a press release. To educate the people, but also because I’m nosy.

AI chatbots are still anti-thinking plagiarism machines that are wrong most of the time. I don’t care who uses them or says they’re great or thinks they’re our collective future. My future involves a lot of thinking, original work, and getting things right, so I have no use for them

Re: last post. Have you tried communicating to those with whom you disagree? Have you considered their position? Terror is real. Terrorists are the result of branding, not ideology.

Let’s not quote things that were used to start one bad war to start another. Let’s not use their language to dehumanize the way they want to do to us. I understand the violence approaching, but this phrase leads to more.
You cannot negotiate with terrorists. If the Ivies give in to any regime demands, the goal posts will move. If the massive ivy endowments aren’t deployed to preserve institutional integrity and academic freedom, what on earth are they for?

Nothing like a good “we’ll be moving shortly… hopefully,” for some humor and no reassurance from the MTA.

Almost forgot how bad a poetry rejection feels in all my job application rejections.
Hurts so good it feels good again.

Just referred to a piece of media as “the new Hands on a Hardbody for families (not for families)”
In case anyone wonders if sixteen-year-old Anna Marie would respect the woman I’ve become…. No.
But also, points for anyone who guesses what it was.

If only more people had the taste of Greenville badgers.
Our badgers can perform “The Room Where It Happens” from Hamilton. They just choose not to.

I told my mom yesterday that the game store in Provincetown may have been my favorite and I would like to apologize for forgetting even briefly about the queer little bookstore where I picked up my newest @chenchenwrites.bsky.social and @dseuss.bsky.social while my husband found James Baldwin.

I would like City Center to produce the Wild Parties in Rep, please. Open to other companies, but I think they’d do justice.
Has this been suggested already? Because it’s a great idea. Thank you.

No, NYT. This isn’t a sonnet. This isn’t even a haiku. This is just dystopian. Go back to bed. #badpoetry

You’re so vain, you think the artist drawing mildly horrifying figures across from you on the 1 train is inadvertently using you as a model.

Get a fucking therapist.
In troubling times, people experiencing high stress or crippling anxiety deal with it in different ways. Some have a therapist, some have a deep breathing exercise & some even have a personal mantra.

There’s a YouTube link to how to pronounce it too. You have few excuses.
The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

“Can I buy a cigarette off of you?”
“I’m sorry, sir, these are not cigarettes. I apologize.”
“I understand. Thank you.”
The most cordial encounter in all of midtown.
