It’s International Haiku Poetry Day today apparently so here are a few haiku with which to start the day.
Assorted Haiku Haiku #2511   Tourists wait in line to enter Machu Picchu. Oh, look! A high queue. Haiku #564127   how dare you suggest I have a short attention spanish omelette   Limeraiku   There once was a young limerick from Kew who turned into a haiku. The Constraints of Haiku   Tied up all night with a haiku dominatrix and her three-line whip.   Shakespearean Haiku   Shall I compare thee To a summer’s day? Alright – Thou art pretty hot.   How to Write a Haiku   The last line should flow seamlessly from the first two – hippopotamus.    Brian Bilston

A man says "fuck it. I wanna be serialized. I'm tired of living comic to comic. I want to experience more. I don't want my eternally reviving body to be used for momentary vignettes. I want to be somebody." Another man says "Oh Gary, I don't think it works like that. We are doomed to nothingness after the next panel." Gary shakes his fists toward the heavens and shouts "NO! I refuse! My name is Gary! I deserve more life!"

My latest video "CONSPIRACY" now has full English captions lovingly handcrafted by an old Italian carpenter instead of the shitty AI ones.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Kanye West is now using Autism as a defence, exactly like Elon Musk.

There is no Autism here, just psychopaths who are so rich they think they can do whatever they want, then trot out this excuse to cover it up.

Word of the morning is ‘williwaw’ (19th century): a sudden violent squall or a toppling gust of wind.

Goes well with ‘thunderplump’: a sudden downpour that soaks you to the skin in seconds.

Today’s poem is called ‘Love Excels’.
Image description: This poem is presented in the form an excel spreadsheet, with words in each cell. The line ‘Our cells shall merge themselves together’ is in a longer merged cell, and there are filter arrows on the line ‘Remove this filter from my heart’. Love Excels Let's spread ourselves on sheets of love, and turn our data into poetry. Our cells shall merge themselves together as you wrap your text around me. Our sum is greater than our parts, let's crunch our figures without compunction. Remove this filter from my heart, you give me form and function. We shall frolic among the formulae, pivot our tables now and often. I will total all your rows and you can add my column. Brian Bilston

Some bros in an SUV ride by and shout at a passer-by "your fucking gay, man" and "GAAAAAY." As they speed off into the distance, the accosted man waves to them, crying tears of joy. He says "thank you boys, you've helped me come to terms with my sexuality!" The SUV bros review a list that says "closeted list: Jim Weeks, Lenny Salt, Ed Mount." One asks "OK, who's next on the list?" They drive past another pedestrian and shout "You're Trans!" and "Admit you're Trans, idiot!"
