I still have her #collar, and I still try to call 'er, when I'm asleep, got older, beside her, moved out, without her, there's fur in my dreams, and hope she still sees, that I still hold her collar, and tell 'er I love her, my best friend on a mantlepiece. #vss364 #poetry

Stephen King has reached that rarified air of having been so influential for so long that now when a trailer for one of his adaptations releases, younger/less well-read people think they're copying ideas & elements from other horror movies instead of realizing they borrowed them from King first.

it felt like #conjuring, an unseen force, benevolent, but mean, a paper-thin house, painted white, with no remorse, men with strings, locked the doors, but I did not know why, no tour, no recourse, the words were written long before us, while they stood by and watched, of course. #vss365 #poetry

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product. On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

use the pokey end, needle and thread, women on the patio, women on the bench, a women working, never ends, history, etched on a pillowcase, between the margins, and braids, a sweet embrace, of all the things your mother said. #vss365 #poetry

#congeal, a mass, un-solid, too small to feel, it bubbles, and thickens, it grows, unmentioned, slipping between jellied motions, no digits were able enough to find, the mass, hidden inside. #vss365 #poetry

Even worse, they're ignorant and proud of it.

just watched sesame street with my son. i don’t know. it’s not like i’m too good for it, it’s just that i know most of this stuff already. like, i work in journalism. i know 23 letters of the alphabet and i’m confident i’ll learn the rest over the course of my work. i don’t need a tv show for that

we #flush, wash away disgust, we must, push the past away, not to be discussed, this way, and the way it's always been, a gust of wind, a pendulum of hush, we will drown someday. #vss365 #poetry

#puckering, on knees, shallow needs, whining, there's spit on your chin, you plead, "More, for me?" man beneath feet, just another thing you lead, you pile neat, the suffering, it's just another thing to keep. #vss365 #poetry

David Lynch gave us the language we needed to better articulate the indescribable strangeness of our shared reality. “Lynchian” is so overused because it’s a viscerally understandable word without any known synonyms. I can’t imagine a more beautiful artistic legacy than that.

a #fool of men, smirking when, people die and applaud his wins, battle, warrior, coward, fraud, his playthings were tested, but he was not. #vss365 #poetry

a #labyrinth inside, the highways in you, I find, the curves and peaks, under review, the folds of your mind, a body so new, a prize, to be in love with you. #vss365 #poetry

#dust we fall, fleeting, like the snow, no footsteps, paths regrown, hungry mother, eating bones, to swallow bodies, poked with holes, our purpose was to feed the bugs, we fill the world with so much stuff, and unlike us, it never rots; a timeless poison, the world forgot. #vss365 #poetry

This is one of the most dystopian things I've ever seen.

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

#esoteric, words beneath the surface, the trenches online, we divide, terrorize, with tongues so wise, a subtle rise, we monetized, on the back of dead dogs, and internet tokens, extoling virtues, on lives, repurposed. #vss365 #poetry

i don’t understand how, psychologically, a person gets to a place where they interpret sign language as some kind of attack or imposition on their life. like, what the fuck is wrong with you?

Hi #BluePitHype! I'm Jade, a multi-genre writer who loves writing speculative fiction. As a kid, I never wanted the story to end. So, I wrote my first fanfic of the Neverending Story, and then never stopped writing. I draw inspiration from the world around me, my dreams, and the human experience.

Hello, I'm Jade. I'm a multi-genre writer with a special interest in horror. I'm working on a short story collection that centers the story on the reader. My working title is: The Ambiguous. My writing goals are: to be consistent, to finish projects, and to share my writing. #HorrorWritersChat

LA fires are a good reminder that the only difference between me and any refugee is luck.

#questions, answers, in betweens, buttons, pulleys, big machines, programs, codes, and little digits, children working, shelling peanuts, bloody hands, needles, stolen land, bodies like things, distresses, fabric frayed, so expensive, above bodies, no question. #vss365 #poetry
