Should be cleaning my house. Instead I’m writing drabbles for @ratbaglit.bsky.social weird fiction themed call, “Saving Daylight.”

I wrote two more than I can submit, so I’m posting one here instead of locking it in the vault forever.
Enjoy the temporal horror until the sun sets on this one too.

Ever fall in love with your own words? Cutting a 2k-word story that begged to be microfiction instead. Sad about losing two sentences that sung.
I’ll let you know where it lands
In the mean time, go check out @claudineliterary.bsky.social for tight, gorgeous fiction. www.claudineliterary.net

Akhil Sharma was unimpressed when he first read “The Sun Also Rises.” Then he began “to experience Hemingway’s language in the way that I think it was intended to be experienced,” he writes. “By the end of the book, I was a different person.” newyorkermag.visitlink.me/mGib6D
The Brilliance and the Badness of “The Sun Also Rises”
Although Ernest Hemingway’s novel makes positive claims about what one should be—brave, admiring of nature and grace—its architecture is held up primarily by hatred.

Trump pardoned Ex-Honduran Pres. Juan Orlando Hernández 31 days ago. JOH was serving 45yrs for weapons & conspiring to import 400+ tons of cocaine. If you believe the party line that
#Maduro’s arrest is abt drugs & not oil or a #distraction from #Epstein files & T’s pedophilia,you may be in a cult.

Hot damn.. yesterday took me 1:07. I shaved off 42 seconds, got a personal best, and don’t know how. I should probably do something requiring real thinking today!

A viroid-like RNA “obelisk” has been discovered across species, including in human microbiomes. They challenge traditional views of viruses and life, encoding proteins called Oblins.
The world is amazing. Science is bad-ass. Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.
