September Ahoy

Yeah, I know I haven’t written a real post in a while, but I’m still here. Not going anywhere, just having limited bandwidth. Work is busy, home is busy, midlife ennui flaring up and getting really weird.

So, for now, links! Courtesy of my trusty Twitter bookmarks.

If you need a chuckle today, commiserate with Hades, god of the underworld, on how hard it is to make friends as an adult (written by @_chase_____ & published in @mcsweeneys, of course): https://t.co/Se2djsVbud pic.twitter.com/uXYul0JhZq

Was told to make a young woman protagonist who eats murderous men "more likable" if I wanted people to read it.

She seemed pretty likable to me, so I declined.

That story was Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers, and it won a Nebula and World Fantasy Award lol https://t.co/jjiOAepwaM

"The thing is to love life, to love it even
when you have no stomach for it"

Sharing "The Thing Is" by Ellen Bass, a reminder we all dearly need, and then tapping out for the night to recover from today's bleak miseries.

Abortion is necessary because we live in a world where female adolescence means dodging dicks left and right. It is the quintessential coming of age experience for girls. I will die on this hill.
