I was not expecting the film that made me feel the most seen since Everything Everywhere to be Conclave but here we are

if everyone I love could stop dying for five minutes, please

once again reminding everyone that st valentine was put to death for performing marriage ceremonies for people who could not legally marry under roman statute at the time. the best way to honour him is by campaigning for and preserving the right to marry for any consenting adults who love each other

tragic: worst person you know has admin privileges

billionaires want to go to space so badly because guillotines need gravity to function

I'm gonna die mad at the fact that we call non-prescription medicine, the kind you can get anywhere in the store, "over the counter." But the medicine that the pharmacist literally has to hand me over a counter? That stuff is we classify as "not available over the counter." Fuck you!!

Competitive prices paid. Get your offer today.

visibly trans in the year of our lord 2025. what a time to be alive.

someone on Twitter said “in English we say ‘I love you,’ in poetry we say…?” and here is my reply

poets 🤝 werewolves

me explaining class in the uk to an american: so a billionaire is middle class no matter how much money he has because he doesn’t have a title, and i’m middle class because i’m broke but i like theatre and will eat an avocado.

LET THE BODIES KEEP THE SCORE. LET THE BODIES KEEP THE SCORE.

what is it with poets in the upper echelons and feeling the need to defend plagiarism? working transformatively and referencing are made separate from plagiarism by appropriate permission, attribution and compensation. to gloss over that is a disingenuous bullshit. lithub.com/in-defense-o...

look i made it the 1979 ibm warning

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear plenty of evils, even though you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me, but also I fear that it provokes the evils and they will use that as an excuse to attack

I have just been asked for third class stamps????

can we please stop calling people who are doing customer service things for you “good girl”. especially weird for me given that i am a man, but it was always weird and creepy to begin with.

Hey, I have zero poetry gigs upcoming in my calendar. So, you know, book me?

Starting the new year as we mean to go on! I’m in Modron, with a poem about billionaires getting their comeuppance. It’s also the first time I’ve ever been translated - so for my Welsh speaking friends, please let me know if I’m any good in Welsh! modronmagazine.com/a-poem-by-ce...?

my polycule contains an asexual that isn’t dating anyone, we just like to include him.

thanks trainline for making me solve a jigsaw puzzle so that i can show the conductor my ticket

Were-artists are more common than you think. Every full moon I feel an overpowering desire to write groundbreaking Modernist novels as I turn into a werewoolf.

me, working in the post office: … customer: which one is the service where I send it and it will get there?

Oh my God, I just had the biggest ordeal trying to put an advert in the local paper. Let me start at the beginning. So my wife and I finally have a baby after years of trying (nothing wrong with our junk! Just took us a while). So, this kid is born and I have to go buy it some shoes (1/72)

he ain’t sick; but no, he isn’t well either

Enduring customer service between Christmas and New Year and constantly being asked “did you have a good Christmas” and having to lie because no, worst Christmas of my life so far, probably the worst one I will ever have.

my favourite christmas tradition is everyone opening their jumpers from grandma and immediately exchanging around the room so we all have one that fits.

Had my first pornographic follower on here. The ecosystem is recovering.

The AI consultation stops just short of suggesting that creative people should, by law, pay tithes to GenAI companies whether they use our copyrighted material or not
