There is no actual, tangible reason why we allow people to starve, to be homeless, to suffer and die needlessly. Food is plentiful. Empty homes are plentiful. Medicine is plentiful. It’s hidden away behind constructs and we pretend those constructs mean something. There is an empty home and a homeless family, give them it. There is a sick child and common medicine to treat it, give it to them. There is a starving person and so much food wasted by corporations or hidden behind a dollar sign, feed them.

Hot Take: Satan’s actual aim in “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” was to trick Johnny into committing the mortal sin of pride. Since he succeeded, the Devil gets his soul anyway. But enjoy your functionally useless golden fiddle for the next few decades, I guess.

[femonologue]

Even hotter take: Johnny seems like the kind of cool and fun person who was going to go to hell for enjoying life to the fullest anyway, so all the Devil really achieved was a truly impressive self-own in the form of an immortal folk song commemorating Johnny absolutely destroying him in a fiddle duel, despite the fact that the Devil cheated by summoning an entire band of demons to back him up.

#hottest take: the devil was just trying to flirt with johnny

an incomplete list of unsettling short stories I read in textbooks

the scarlet ibis

marigolds

the diamond necklace

the monkey’s paw

the open boat

the lady and the tiger

the minister’s black veil

an occurrence at owl creek bridge

a rose for emily

(I found that one by googling “short story corpse in the house,” first result)

the cask of amontillado

the yellow wallpaper

the most dangerous game

a good man is hard to find

some are well-known, some obscure, some I enjoy as an adult, all made me uncomfortable between the ages of 11-15

add your own weird shit, I wanna be literary and disturbed

[repulsion-gel]

The Tell-Tale Heart, The Gift of the Magi, The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calavaras County, Thank You Ma'am

[allyitis]

the box social by james reaney. i remember we all had to silently read it in class, and you would hear the moment everyone reached the Part because some people would audibly go “what”

[fuchsiamae]

wHat did I just put my eyes on

[schrodingers-rufus]

“The Veldt” by Ray Bradbury

Not quite a short story, but read in class: “The Monsters are Due on Maple Street” from The Twilight Zone

“The Pedestrian” by Ray Bradbury

[asexualzoro]

the lottery by shirley jackson

[eccentwrit]

i can’t believe Roald Dahl’s “The Landlady” wasn’t already mentioned and also it’s not so much unsettling as more absurdist but “The Leader” by Eugene Ionesco definitely made me go wtf

[idlewildly]

Ett halvt ark papper. I cried so much.

Some of Us Had Been Threatening Our Friend Colby, by Donald Barthelme

[titleleaf]

We read lots of good disturbing shit in hs or in the writing groups I joined in hs but somehow the top of the heap for shit that haunted me’s still indisputably Ethan Canin’s “The Palace Thief”. It’s not horror as such but it freaked me the fuck out. 

There was another O. Henry short story we read that was also really alarming but I had to google a major spoiler (which is also a warning) to recall the name – “The Furnished Room”.  

[lesbianshepard]

there will come soft rains by bradbury was very unsettling for middle school me

[demo-ness]

I had no idea so many were all written by Ray Bradbury, why did he do this to us

[i-see-your-light]

“Emergency” by Dennis Johnson – not entirely disturbing but really weird and there’s one Bad Part

“A Small, Good Thing” by Raymond Carver – again not all that bad but sad and kind of creepy 

[asterlark]

i had to read a collapse of horses by brian evenson for a writing class last year and it’s. very fucking weird

[wuqs]

“the birds” by du maurier

[periegesisvoid-deactivated]

Bradbury wrote a lot of weird shit. But, “The Book of Sand” and"The Library of Babel" by Luis Borges.

“It’s a Good Life” - Jerome Bixby “The Little Black Bag” - Cyril M. Cornbluth “The Cold Equations” - Tom Godwin “The Nine Billion Names of God” - Arthur C. Clarke “Mars is Heaven!” - Ray Bradbury “Born of Man and Woman” - Richard Matheson “That Only A Mother” - Judith Maril “The Country of the Kind” - Damon Knight “Mimsy Were The Borogroves” - Lewis Padgett “Lamb to the Slaughter” - Roald Dahl “We Can Get Them For You Wholesale” - Neil Gaiman “BLIT” and “Different Kinds of Darkness” - David Langford (set in the same universe) (there are a couple of other “basilisk” stories and they’re worth checking out) “The Secret Number” - Igor Teper

Volunteering at a soup kitchen is one of the least productive things you can do to change the world. Art can inspire people and motivate them. Food is important, yes, but you aren’t changing that person’s life.

[femkitti]

concept: I have a job I love and work from home, which allows me to sleep in every day. In my free time, I tend to the plants in my greenhouse, listening to music, while my cats follow closely behind. At night I curl up next to the love of my life and we talk about how far we’ve come. My anxiety is nonexistent and nothing hurts.

A Concept

I invite you over to my house. I offer you a seat. You sit and immediately sink into the floorboards. My height establishes dominance.

You can’t get up. The chair disappears. All the chairs disappear. Party Time™️.
