happy pub day to ME! here is another mitski poem, up at @miznaarabart.bsky.social 💜 mizna.org/mizna-online...

Summer giggling while Supernatural 15.18 plays on a screen behind her

Summer with exasperated expression as supernatural plays behind her

Summer covering her face while Castiel does his 15.18 love confession

yesterday one of my greatest dreams came true !! forced a room full of people to watch specifically curated clips from supernatural & teach them about destiel & my hysteria & poetry. here are my various faces

there is no limit to my gay

A lot of breathing.

A lot of sighing.

I appreciate the desire to ensure everybody feels as pressed and heavy as we do right now, but the most important thing is to inspire and encourage action, community, togetherness and love. [2/2]

any lit mags out there looking for longer creature feature fiction, like 5,000 words and up?

As a religious person, THIS is what I mean when I say I am “Blessed and Highly Favored.” 🙌🏼
