Behind the Poem: Query Telling on Other Elder In which the author reflects on oral poetics and unruly worldbuilding...

On my substack, I wrote a companion essay to my poem “Query Telling on Other Elder,” published by @thedeadlands.com in their summer issue. Read on for reflections on the politics of translating oral poetry, and when world-building demands the poetic to express it.

The Passion of Kitty Angel Mindfreak: Director's Cut by blake Can an angel of history survive the future of the entertainment industry?

welcome back, 2005 🃏

Queerness is difficult to qualify in my story, since from a xenofiction perspective most of the native animal characters don't really do gender and thus their "queerness" is the norm for the setting. But as an ex-human character thrust into a non-human body, Quiet-Dream is queer in interesting ways.

#unhingedpit in the interval between reincarnations of its dreaded Dark Lord, a fantasy world has had time to modernize - but what do they do to make sure the Dark Lord doesn't come back? combining magic and psychology, make sure he grows up as the most non-functional neurotic loser of all time

YouTube video by Andata Express THEORY OF THE YOUNG-BOY AMV 03//TRUANT

we've also been slowly working through our Youtube backlog, with another Young-Boy AMV as well as two classic Plaza recordings
www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1gq...

"{N-3} Prelude The “Department Onto Literary Legitimacy (D.O.L.L.)”, whose members are D.A.O.lites and the Dolliterati, is a branch of the intelligence institution “Sisters auf Keter Yaberwoczkl”. When a trans girl is determined to err, they are “extracted” by the Porcelain Guard to a “Lager Lagrange” under the auspices of the "Hagiac Altruism" programme, called “DOLL e-HA:LL”. This programme is administered by elder gaze “BEÆ”, rank Höllen Manitour. A covert administrative cabal of the 13ROT stand above SKY, DOLL, the PG, and “HA”, with all its Lagers, against which eponymous petite-Guignolle takes her Nomie de la Guerra—“Zunny”—in the “Littlespace Jihad” resistance movement. Magdelan Maxima, voluntary assignee to the .pt LL (vol.HA:LL-a), causes the accidental first breach in their unified canon Narakas, thereby enabling Zun to escape gridlock and to unveil the Ur-SK. Elsewhere, in the Narakas of Wyrms, one mujicastro OpKadenza “ENNUIT” of Dracopolis, known to us as “Schizotypal Clarinet Girl” (scg, also: 'Skarlēj Guqqì'), notices something dissonant during another one of her vapid punishment details. She has always been plagued by a symphony of nonsense contrapuntals, detached from instrumentality, so why is this “Sukitta Berdyamat” name, for once, actually familiar?" https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/9da9b825-7dae-4b63-aa06-f075865f10a9#e7b71acd-e015-48b2-87bf-863c2cfe509a

GIRLFRIEND Sancta Maria, you're impossible. You'd rather watch everything burn than get your hands a little dirty. You live in a fairy tale where your morals pay the rent. LYSETTE Yet if it weren't worth much, one wonders why it sells. You live in a spreadsheet, where everything and everyone has a price! Even us. Was this part of the adaptation strategy? Figure out the market value of our relationship and see if it's still a profitable venture? GIRLFRIEND Don't be dramatic. This is about your company's future. Your inheritance. LYSETTE No. It's not. This is about you thinking I'm just a hopeless idealist, a bad investment. You look at me and you see a failing business model. We're pharma, bluebird. I got a black hat, it might live! I had you, but now it's DID? GIRLFRIEND I look at you and I see someone I'm trying to keep from drowning! But you keep fighting me, like I'm your enemy. I'm not. Lys. Couldn't you try to meet me halfway, with a little grace? The word lands on Lysette — Grace. It hangs in the air. https://write.ellipsus.com/edit/8a611a1b-a83f-40c2-8052-4150938e37bd
