Robert Helfst is too tired for this shit

Very stoked for this one!

if you think the Basic Income for Artists in Ireland being made permanent is a good thing, wait until you learn about the income tax breaks for artists earning up to €50k p/a 💃💫

And I just… we could do this. We could afford to do this, as a country. There is no good fucking reason why we cannot do this. We simply choose not to because we believe that Jesus loves billionaires more than loser slothful creative people

Jason Mendoza would LOVE Trevor Lawrence.

If you go through Lafayette, IN Second Flight and Main Street Books are both great!

“I’m not doing spooky season this year life is spooky enough” SHUT UP

Crying while my kids watch HOMEWARD BOUND, if you want to know how my mental state is these days.

I’m a huge cereal fan and the costs of EVERYTHING are out of control.

Pet Semetary all the way!

If It Makes You Happy

The curse/blessing Venn diagram is a circle.

Overcome with a terrible melancholy that will just not let go.

….the eating clean starts tomorrow.

Eating clean and taking care of myself because I REALLY don’t want to get space dementia.

"Republicans run the entire government but can't keep it open"

That's it. That's the whole story.

Waiting for a submission response when I see bold popping up all over the Submission-Grinder from @diabolicalplots.com has me like:

Fuckin yikes, man

Watching/listening to One Punch Man on a loop so I never have to feel anything other than awesome.

This is absolute rockstar status.

I wasn’t a huge fan of My Chemical Romance as a teenager, but I wish I had been. I wish I’d had the music to help me get in touch with my anger and sorrow, really at any point sooner in my life.

Their show in Chicago was fucking amazing. Feels like my brain got rewired in a really good way.

On a blurred background is a drawing of a girl and an old yew tree, nearly connected by an underground network. A quote is below it, reading: "Regardless of where God is or what he likes, I feel alone, my dress scratching the mushroom gill breathing from in my armpits and elbows and behind my knees, and I am praying to anyone who will listen that they do not bring us to a doctor who will destroy me, and I will never go home."

Blight sends a young Irish girl to a colonial English school where an ancient tree teaches her that fungal networks run deeper than human-drawn borders.

@augursociety.bsky.social if an author submits 2 stories to augur during an open call but has to withdraw one, can said author submit another story or is the cap 2 submissions total regardless of withdrawal?

I know I'm behind on stuff for @fraidycatpress.bsky.social and for that I'm very sorry. Had some health issues recently and lost my grandfather last week. Promise I'll get back to everyone with responses, contracts, and everything else I owe you all as soon as I can!

If there's one episode of TV I wish I could force everyone to watch and internalize, it's the 30 Rock where Liz, who has always seen herself as a bullied nerd underdog, finds out she's actually been hated all her life because she's mean.

Hindsight being 20/20, I think we can all agree that Mad Stan was the true hero of Batman Beyond.

When did everyone decide that a coffee shop was the place to be loud? Nowhere is cozy or quiet anymore.
