My story "Ice Man" is up at @MISTERBULLBULL today. It's about mothers, memories, and miracles, and why you shouldn't stow away in the landing gear of an airplane. Many thanks to Bull for publishing it.

"What he remembered was the earth unwinding below him like a bedsheet, patched in yellow & green. All intoxication blown away by the killing wind. He saw it clearly. The world was vaster & more various than anyone knew." @grnpointer mrbullbull.com/newbull/fictio…

Benjamin Franklin@Gyeff01

While his acting may have been better, taken as a full package Sinners is a superior film to Marty Supreme because it offers a new fresh approach to seeing reality, meanwhile Marty Supreme offers the same shallow anti-capitalist messages that we're seen a million times already. The brothers in Sinners are capitalists themselves, so it's not just shallow "capitalism BAD!" as we have seen so many times, with the latest iteration being presented in Marty Supreme.

if you don’t prefer led zeppelin ages 11-17, you have no heart. if you don’t prefer steely dan as an adult, you have no brain

hyper mega bummer boy@danceyrselfdean

I don't like that we live in a world where people think Steely Dan are a better band than Led Zeppelin

This cruelty is being done in our name. Shame on this administration. Shame.

Rodríguez had never set foot in Mexico and had never heard of this city ... The deportees wandered in the dark until they found a park, where Rodríguez spent the first of what would be many nights curled up on the ground, trying to sleep via @katelinthicum latimes.com/world-nation/s…

It's so cool that the world's most dangerous spider lives only within a 60 mile radius of a huge metropolitan center

When a guy is shouting on the subway, that's Crime. When people do stuff like this it's something else

@CharlemagnumPI The stuff anti-canon people prefer is uniformly more formulaic and generic

I’ll never stop saying with my whole chest that the western canon is weirder and wilder than any of us could expect. They are enduring works precisely because they are NOT stereotypical of their times and places.

The whole "dead white men classics" shit from booktok people is absurd because I read Moby Dick and one of the first things Ishmael does is get into a tensely homoerotic two-men-one-bed situation with Queequeg and even goes "it's like I'm his wife... jk haha... unless?"

High Point University in NC, which beat Wisconsin in basketball today, conducts campus tours on golf carts, offers wealthy students private housing for $40,000 per year and built an "airplane-cabin interior" so that students could rehearse sitting next to an executive on a plane.
