Hi. I’m almost 25 with no license.
My dad is blind. My mom is unsafe to teach me. I need to get driving if I want work at all or to move. Please help.

Please note that kofi takes 5-10% of everything donated. $700 is the low estimate.

2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.

Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀

IT'S VITAL TO SUPPORT indie pubs that encourage risk & diversity. Here's a 🧵 of em you can support directly:

In 2025, I’ll have lived in three states, worked three different jobs (hopefully), and will have written two books.

Between that and *waves hands around* this is a whiplash year.

THAT IS THE LESSON OF HOLOCAUST EDUCATION YOU SICK FREAK
I'm struck by this clip of former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz saying Holocaust education has backfired in part because people Palestinians as victims: "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people."

Even on the worst Tuesdays there are books waiting for you to read them
Hello, I write literary horror and surrealist trash. You can find links to all of my publications on my website, and a page devoted to free stories & audio online. I'd be immensely grateful if you'd buy my books or request them through your library to support my writing.

So for various reasons, we’re going to be moving down to Florida.

Any horror/weird writers living down there?

Forget LoZ and Moana. Someone should make a live action remake of my book LUMBERJACK.

The CGI J Sterling Morton would be incredible and Josh Gad would be delightful as the voice of the axe.

@tenebrouspress.bsky.social let’s get on this!

When they aren’t busy reenacting their favorite scenes from FUNNY GAMES, Tenebrous Cult members @beardedbetts.bsky.social (TRVE CVLT) & @anthonyengebretson.bsky.social (LUMBERJACK) hold down the Tenebrous remote table.
Your service is appreciated, Weirdos🖤☠️

If anyone is in the Lincoln area, swing on by! If not, send your positive energy (and caffeine)
@anthonyengebretson.bsky.social and I are hanging at Lincoln Nerd Fest until 6 today. If you're around, swing by. It's been a fun event. #LNK

Cars need to be abolished
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

I’ve been told my books are depressing. But frankly I think my melancholy is something I should lean more into rather than less.

I’m a melancholic person. How can I not be? I’m a deeply sensitive little guy in a deeply troubled world.

I love to see Lumberjack get some love! Thanks for reading 🪓
My last read: Lumberjack by @anthonyengebretson.bsky.social A tight, tense historical novella with a protagonist so dangerously delusional, I had to take a breather after one particular chapter. 5 🪓🪓🪓🪓🪓/5

Do I know anyone who lives in the DMV area and is looking for a dog? Young, well-trained male lab/pitt mix. He’s adorable and sweet and goofy.

If you know are interested or know someone who might be, pass it along and DM me for info.
