I need people reblogging this without context to know that this is literally a quote from the tv show Hannibal.

close to the knives readalong// well it's helped knead an absurd longterm feeling alive in me from vague brain substrate into english (not much better). this has nothing and everything to do with the text: like all good books, its bones and blood found their way inside

timestamp. 3:00am on a sunday morning: I'm scared to go to the dentist because it has to be a stranger—our family practitioner, nice old Vietnamese lady, retired—a stranger who, yes, sees hundreds and thousands of mouths, and mine I know is unremarkable among them, but I'd be a stranger to them as well and I'd be laid on that chair opening my mouth within the first few minutes of meeting and something about that is so incredibly slutty. Not promiscuous-slutty, spiritually; see I've been flying solo for two or three years now and this faceless professional would be the only one seeing any opening of mine in so long. Yes, there are lines, let's draw them: Stranger to stranger. Healthcare provider to patient. Services rendered and received. Giver, taker, the dumb sunglasses the assistant hands you, the impassive gazes. Still, on both sides, a wet mouth.

—so, i can't bring myself to schedule an appointment to this day. .. would not have been able to crystallise any of that prior to reading close to the knives! also i'm feeling kinship with the anon who shared a dream of eating their minified sibling (?) after reading your hudcon fic...

i cruelly and selfishly waited to answer this because i realized with great cherishment u are ahead of me and i thought okay i'll catch up. then i went on a week long trip, brought david as my only book, and didn't even put a palm on him. but this is beautiful and deserves to be shared.

still! on both sides! a wet mouth

I assume you actually don’t spend that much time on your phone and instead spend lots of time daydreaming next story

sadly i love dat phone. but i've been trying to reroute recently. not much instagram (the gaping maw of threads!!!!! literally a trap) but a lot of depop......... i have been mostly off discord, anti-server, and trying to fill that gap up w substack. here's some i loved:

born in the wrong-generation by sam kriss (ai as your Beautiful Submissive Girlfriend)

regionally-specific award winning short story by jp brammer (self-explanatory, famed writer of the genius pantone essay)

who's on judge mathis today #305 by sam irby (self-explanatory, also famed genius. i've been reading this since before i understood what substack was, just thought: wow this hilarious icon can send me an email update sometimes, how cool. better never investigate further)

the need to feel desired by erin williams (mostly about dtf st louis but you don't have to watch that show to read this)

summer house is a television show by ira madison iii (led me to this essay by zadie smith about how people seek out fiction to feel comforted by their own morals. also obv as is my ideal, it's about reality tv)
