www.amazon.com/Tainaron-Mai... you Can get an ebook but I don’t Need an ebook. If I just want to Read it I have it in an anthology I own. I want a copy to Treasure Forever. You understand.
It’s a beautiful meditation on life, love, grief, change, and death, and is suffuse with a delicious melancholy that wraps around you like a warm sweater. Please read this. Fall in love with it. And maybe, one day, we will all be able to travel to Tainaron.
This is the best thing I’ve read all year. And maybe, if I convince enough people to read it, it will come back in print so I can own a copy. The synopsis is simple: a woman sends letters to her ex lover about her time in a city populated by anthropomorphic insects.
Oh that’s Very Clever
Little Excavator was often ‘taking a nap’ when my littlest brother (20 year age gap, he’d only sleep if I put him to bed so while not a parent, parent adjacent) was a toddler and I stand by that choice of lying to a child, so I Very feel you here
I’m sorry I implied leftists didn’t support sexual liberation. I’m sorry I didn’t curate my followers well enough. I’ll make sure to do better in the future.
I am not saying leftists or leftism is bad. I am saying online leftists conduct in group out group sorting in a way that worsens my existing mental illness. They can do this I just don’t have to engage
Like. That’s the kind of people who built the culture on here, the ‘surveil all your online activities for proper adherence to leftist morality’ that I stopped using Twitter to avoid in the first place bc it was just a constant ocd trigger but. Why would I willingly engage in another ocd simulator
Is it any wonder I don’t wanna spend time on here man
Logs into Bluesky:
Bluesky: writing erotica is immoral because it’s a form of exhibitionism you’re inflicting on people who can’t consent
Closes Bluesky:
Anyways I do think that’s part of why teens aren’t reading. They can’t read anything good bc the right wingers AND the leftists think giving kids The Wrong Books is sexual abuse. When I was a kid only conservatives thought that. Now everybody does so kids don’t know What’s Out There
I told this story on Twitter once & a leftist bookstore owner told me I’d been sexually abused by this. Which is funny bc I had already been molested at that point and it certainly didn’t involve literature. Which is funny bc nobody believes that bc I’m not the Right Kind Of Crazy.
My beloved high school English teacher I had for two years running handed me Kindred while saying ‘I’d love to teach this but I’d get fired if I did’ and that got me more excited than any YA book where a girl Embraces Femininity To Overcome Trauma.
I think part of why teens aren’t reading is bc the pendulum swung so hard towards ‘YA only until your brains are developed’ & they’re bored. I was a big reader as a teen bc my teachers kept handing me fucked up vintage sci fi, something Nice Progressive Book Types have implied was grooming actually

they're not pickle flavored, they Taste Like A Pickle which is weirdly mind blowing considering the sheer amount of pickle snacks i have tried at this point in my life
I never post on here but this is a novelty flavor alert that I can’t relegate to a 5 person discord server: if you see these: buy them immediately. I don’t even like corn puffs usually and I am saying this. Very Good Snack
I’m so glad I’m not an undergrad now because getting accused of using ai for the crimes of knowing words and being autistic would have made me completely check out of class, and it’s something I see professors blame students for on here Every Day
I’m just kinda at the point in kicking my ocd into submission that I can’t partake in ‘social structure built around morality surveillance’ anymore
Half the posts on here are apologies in which people debase themselves for sins like ‘read a Bad Author’ or ‘got excited about Immoral Tv Show’ or ‘articulated leftist talking point of the day in an inelegant matter’ just like old Twitter! You know! The stuff that made old Twitter suck!
You can’t even make a collage bc it’s ’too much like ai’
I don’t wanna make an excited post about a library book sale and then get 500 responses about how used books are basically stealing and I’m irredeemably evil and going on a List, or express enjoyment for the Wrong Short Story, or make a joke about a hot guy people take as a dig at his woman co star
Like man I did want to hang out on here and make friends but I’m not able to handle a moral ocd trigger generator anymore
Bluesky is just like Twitter in 2018 it’s just that that’s a bad thing
I never post on here bc every time I want to post on here it’s because something annoyed me but Goodness some of the Takes
We both know ai couldn’t make these and acting like they’re a moral equivalent pisses me off
God I never post on here bc I find the vibes insufferable but you guys simply aren’t gonna convince me that collage is immoral bc it’s ’just like ai’
