Linnets by Larry Levis is one of the best poems of all time.

I must admit I'm struggling with regards to kaizo/Twitch as of late. A few things have piled up that have left me feeling very broken, and I don't really know how or if I want to exist in this space anymore.

Poem in the Shape of the Poet Beating Henry Kissinger to Death with Their Bare Hands by Felix

I have three guests lined up for this poetry podcast idea. The plan is to record five episodes before I launch, then record one every month, interviewing someone with a new or recent book.

Thinking about starting a poetry podcast. Oh god.

Sara Hovda — Frozen Sea

Hi. I have a new poem in @frozenseapoetry.bsky.social today. Written after reading "Grey Century" by @eireannmor.bsky.social, which is a poem I still love so dearly.

Built to masc, forced to femme.

Who wants to be my Valentine'd Day shrumpty?

Looks like I'm going to AWP March 4-7. Anyone I know in the Baltimore area wanna grab coffee or something while I'm there?

Just read "Hazel and Christopher" by @caseyplett.com - the first short story I've read by a non-classmate since starting my MFA in poetry - and just Jesus Christ. Jesus fucking Christ.

The one in one of Thirdwall's hacks in the vertical level where I hit it and yelled, "tourney blowjob, Thirdwall!"

It was okay, but it came with cranberry juice, which made it better.

Maybe A Haunting at Chateau Cousseux by @nixkillsmyths.bsky.social. there's something about taking on such an intensely difficult hack knowing you're going to be in some rooms for hours upon hours. Finally beating some of those rooms was such a great feeling.

I'm drunk off a bottle of sparkling wine at like 3pm today so ugh AMA and I'll answer

Underneath, as it turns out.

This is hot California does poutine?

Issue Eleven countdown 🪓 9 days until launch 🪓

I met a screenwriter in my MFA program tonight who's aware of kaizo and speedrunning, so I showed him my JokerShellOK run, and his face turning from amusement to disgust will fuel me for months.

Essay Idea: Plato's Allegory of the Vagina: Looking Beyond Compulsory Heterosexuality to the real world of the Queer.

How many craniums can @carrarium.bsky.social carry? And if Carrie Carrarium could carry her own cranium, say a crate of them, how far could Carrie Carrarium carry them, that crate of Carrie Carrarium craniums?

@seckswrecks.bsky.social @eon.gay

Okay nevermind one more I did so well this morning omg

I'm running JokerShellOK for this. Very happy to take part in some small way.

Hi btw I'm planning on doing another shovdathon (4!) in June, after I finish the spring quarter and before I head to SGDQ. If you want to see information or give thoughts on games for incentives, etc. please come by my stream and type !shovdathon4 in chat.

One more makeup shot before I just take it as status quo and no longer need to show it off every time lol.

Little bit better on the makeup today

Can confirm. Especially if they're over the age of, I don't know, 40.

A lot of things going on in my life right now. I've returned to therapy, I've put together what will hopefully be my first book, and... I'm returning to makeup after like five years away.

I currently look like I let a toddler get to me with a marker, but we'll get there little by little.

Ready to discuss poetry today let's go.
