Okay okay okay okay... Hear me out... What if the waitstaff dressed as owls? The restaurant could become forest themed. You'd sit on a moss covered floor to have a picnic with your friends while owls bring you craft beverages. Total rebrand.

When I was a kid, "children should be seen and not heard" was a popular saying. No one really took it seriously but I still became a literary writer who fucking struggles to string a sentence together out loud so I guess I kinda did.

Being a vessel is so draining.

The stress of a mystery puddle when both your home and pet are aging. Wheh.

[my world crumbling around me] what am i gonna make for dinner

There's something low key abusive about dirt and worms. No wonder millennials have trash mental health.

My favorite part was when it compared a storm pulling trees from the ground to a toddler pulling candles from a birthday cake. But my favorite favorite part was when it said that mental illness was diarrhea of the mind.

Falling asleep listening to the audio book for The Prince of Tides: this writing is amazing. Haunting. Visceral. Waking up to the main character shouting a racial slur over and over to make his psychiatrist uncomfortable: noooooooooo

I haven't reinstalled tiktok since the ban and now I feel really fucking left out of this angler fish tragedy.

Today's NYT's wordle felt very personal.

My wife has given me a Valentine's Day envelope addressed to "pudq'snH," which any true devotee of Star Trek will tell you is a Klingon term of endearment, meaning "The One I Will Kill Last," introduced in the classic Next Generation epis- What? (flips envelope 180 degrees) Ohhhhh riiiight got it

Just wrote some of the most beautiful lesbian shit in my life. Can't wait to make it tragic

The thinner tree was cut down years ago, and the larger one has been supporting and feeding it since then. They "wake up" together in the spring and "go to sleep" together in the autumn. This natural phenomenon is known as inosculation.

As a reward for writing above wordcount on the project I was actually supposed to be working on, I opened a pack of Magic cards. ME: …huh. Hey, STEPSON, got a question for you. STEPSON: Whazzup? ME: I just pulled this out of a pack and— STEPSON: OH GOD, AN EDGAR MARKOV

Heard my mother call memes "very famous pictures"

bluesky should add reacjis and if you choose 🤣 it deletes your account

Bummed. The popular young nephew I've been preparing to rule after me has died under mysterious circumstances. Gonna cry on the shoulder of his charmless but ambitious brother, who was first to offer condolences to me

a great source of vitamin eeeeeee

maybe millennials are poor because of all the photoshopping. they should try photosaving

Thank You !!! Joy and revelation and a gorgeous format and layout!! @manderleypress.bsky.social

My mom finally asked me “so do you like older men” and I was like “well I don’t like younger men”

a plugin that dubs all your movies in uwu

the fifth string present on some bass guitars is used by players as an emergency garrote

"If there's a lot of emdashes, that's not a real writer, it's a robot!" Writers: Lol. yeah, okay, how about I emdash my foot up your--

my dog is literally honk shoo-ing right now, the internet is real

Is this manuscript therapeutic or ripping open scabs? Has an author ever been driven insane by their own work? Will any of my “serious” writing friends ever give a shit? Does that person think about me as much as I think about them? Should I eat a box of donuts?

I thought for sure I’d remember. #amwriting #writing #writersky

Just because you can get used to something... tolerate it, doesn't make it compatible with happiness. Is living a half life any way to live at all?

“But, I’m a talking tree!” said the oak. “And, you will dialogue,” replied the lumberjack.

Oh no, all my dreams are coming true. :(

told my friend she was drawing her eyebrows too high and then she looked at me all surprised

Would be a really bad time for my face to get stuck like this

Are you normal or do you have 1,440 alarms in your phone at 1 minute intervals? The amount of scrolling I need to do in order to set an afternoon alarm is getting to be unreal. Yes I could just enter a new alarm every time, but you see how that contributes to the problem.

I'm never at my best this early in the apocalypse.

I think I’m gonna begin some freak thing like referring to my body as “this vessel” until someone asks me what’s going on

Great news guys! An asteroid is coming! Like… seriously.

Cry wolf! The whole moral to that story is, "don't lie all the time because they won't believe you when it's finally true". You never lied. It was ALWAYS true. The wolf was always coming. Now it's here, and your cry is just as valid now as it was then. The fucking wolf is here!

Capital shattering then oozing back together like T-1000, same as it ever was

Probably the worst thing about social media is when some random corncob tells you that you don’t know anything a topic you’ve written a WHOLE ASS BOOK ABOUT.

Do one thing every day that scares you. Me: **reads the news**

Mom, can I hold your hand…?

i think im better off just staying in my own little world at this point

have reached the point of the grief process where it just hits like a freight train out of nowhere

Almost two weeks ago, I found out I was one of 40 people getting laid off from NBC News. Those who know me know I’ve wanted to go independent for a long time. Later this month, I’m launching @spitfirenews.com. We need journalism that is louder than ever. spitfirenews.com/p/an-introdu...
