rabbit holes I’ve been down this week:
what the fuck are imaginary numbers
quentin Tarantinos foot fetish
the history of dial up internet
explain binary numbers like I’m 5
my brain is a research facility with no funding and no supervision

I have to eat Reese’s a certain way or I will be personally responsible for the heat death of the universe.
Just in case anyone was wondering what’s wrong with me.

I just want to eat strawberries and read books in a world where everyone is safe. Instead I explain the difference between racism and prejudice and witness the aftermath of what bombs do to human bodies. #humanrights #wedeservebetter

When our mouths met,
I tasted it—
the grudge on your lips.
The first omen wasn’t poison,
just the way that you kissed.
Our bodies made language,
our mouths filled with flames—
if only fire
had soft things to say.
excerpt, ‘the taking light’

excerpt, “pretty little labor machine”
I gave up wishing on stars,
In favor of engineering your dreams—
white picket fence,
a pretty little labor machine.
Made babies and forgot
I was supposed to eat.
Became just another way
to transfer heat.

#Like this if you’d #read #poetry about a #Gemini moon exiled to the 12th house, working doubles at a haunted Cheesecake Factory where she argues with ancient gods in the walk-in, dodges cryptic texts from the #zodiac #groupchat, and gets spiritually subtweeted by her #exes in the astral plane.

A reminder that fiction — books, film, games, what have you — is always political. The willful absence of “politics” in any work is itself a political choice and a political act. Who gets to tell (and sell) stories is political. It might be an undercurrent — covert, not overt. But it’s there.
