The world is violent and mercurial — it will have its way with you. We are saved only by love — love for each other and the love that we pour into the art we feel compelled to share: being a parent; being a writer; being a painter; being a friend. We live in a perpetually burning building, and what we must save from it, all the time, is love.

Tennessee Williams

"what if I've read part of it" if it's a large enough part that you would consider yourself to Have Read It in general contexts, then it counts. if it's not, then it doesn't. only you can be the judge of that, but I'm not giving you a nuance button.

any translations count, but abridged retellings don't

obviously, there are lots of other classical texts out there. you might have read none of these and be an expert on greek tragedy. I'm not judging your classical knowledge so you don't need to tell me all that. I'm just curious about combos of these specific texts and their popularity, bc a post i just saw got me thinking about it

My ex best friend- who I am no contact with- liked the public post about the art show, despite not knowing the other artist (and basically having no reason to engage with the show);

the city shut down the street and parking surrounding the gallery;

In spite of all this, the reception went well. People came, I did my talk, and we had great conversations 😌

(We will also have a closing reception in a couple weeks)

All fantasy authors wish they had a bigger bathtub in their house. You can tell by every bathing scene ever written into a fantasy novel

They don't tell you this but besides the Beloved Mutual there's also the Longterm Follower who you don't follow back but they're always in your notes and you're kind of watching them. Checking on the longterm follower's bio every so often like turning over a log. She's trans now good for her

Longterm followers I am putting fresh leaves and hrt in your enclosure

many women are excited to get old and weird, but i have great news that it's fully possible to become weird now, before you get old. just imagine the heights of weirdness you will be able to reach in fifty years if you get started now. that's what I think

[ganondorf]

i think this captures the defining pathology of the collective social media psyche right now. we are in the thrall of people who are wantonly cruel but who also demand to be coddled at all times in every way

I'm reading the bible for the first time and the song of songs has me baffled, why is it part of the bible?

because love is holy

[catholicapothecary]

it’s a grand metaphor for Christ and the Church

[eesirachs]

this is violent to the near east and the bodies of it. their love lyric is not yours to lay claim to, not in confidence. this blog never tolerates cruelties, like this, to the voices that formed the biblical corpus

One day I will be able to say something without someone immediately using my innocuous statement as a way to dunk on me 🫩
