Happy Partially Muscled Skeleton Day to all who celebrate. Be sure to let all your screams out and then disappear.

What a thrill to be part of @talkingpointsmemo.com's series about the past 25 years of digital media! I wrote about why private equity goons destroyed Deadspin and why it matters.

MOTTI: Your sad devotion to that ancient religion has not helped you conjure up the stolen data tapes, or given you clairvoyance enough to find the Rebels' hidden fort—

It's pronounced jizz lane, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.

Disturbing to hear the scientist has rejected all criticism of genetically engineering ducks to have twice as thick layers of under-feathers. They doubled down.

I feel like "WHat you just have made here is a list of shit that is good," has potential as a new dril idiom.

what i really like about how this is written is that it starts off feeling VERY cosmo in tone and style, and then launches straight into completely deranged anecdotes www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/love-sex/...

There’s no question that we’re living — and looking for love — in contentious times, where extreme political ideologies have all but divided parts of the dating pool. Or have they?

Poem of the Day: "Rainbird" #poetry #poem #poemoftheday
Rainbird The bird escaped between my fingers, as they closed. A soft brush. If only I hadn’t tried to keep it contained, it might have stayed. I watched the plumage, red, green, and blue, rise until the colors merged. I could not keep watching without staring at the sun.

Poem of the Day: "Mindful Note" #poetry #poem #poemoftheday
Mindful Note I heard a sound cutting through my reverie. A single note clearing the cobwebs of my mind. And I found myself standing among the lights of the city blissfully awake, looking for the source, hearing only the roar of engines, the chatter of pedestrians, and the patter of rain. Only in my dreams did it sound again.

They also last a decent while if you tap spray instead of just going hog wild. Still, the economy was weird 'cause there were also so, so many inexplicably expensive skins to buy."

Poem of the Day: "Auburn Beast" #poetry #poem #poemoftheday
Auburn Beast Walking through the woods, I came upon a strange creature clad in auburn leaves like feathers. Body of an angry cat. What are you? I asked. A growling voice answered: I am the claws of fall, and it slashed my cheek letting in the cold. As I blinked against the pain, it ascended a tree, merging with the canopy. Soon the leaves fell at my feet.

Poem of the Day: "Ode to Caffeine" #poetry #poem #poemoftheday
Ode to Caffeine Black heat diffusing through veins as the sun rises. A frozen tableau animates. Would dawn have come without bitter awareness?

This is the ideal female body. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.
