I wrote about my late friend @fakemaddoxjolie and his debut book AFTERPARTIES for @GQMagazine—about his wit, my memories, and what makes his unapologetic and stylish queer Khmer stories so vital. AFTERPARTIES is out today. Please read it. 🖤🙏🏽 bit.ly/GQAnthony

@magicmikewrites You got this. What an excellent way to recharge and regenerate.

I had an absolutely terrible writing world experience last month, and my confidence was shot. Here I am on my way to dear friends for a glorious, unexpected residency, and hope is restored. When things get bad, don’t give up!

@KeganMarling Consider yourself lucky and use your ally privilege by holding space for those of us who were effected by this collective harm.

@engrishlessons I guess I’m relieved I have no idea what this is?

IYKYK—Who else wants to join my trauma support group for survivors of: “ATTENTION! This is not a dating site. You will have to [verb] ugly granny [noun] every time they ask you. Your account will be banned if you reject…”

@BigImpactTO It’s okay, you’re not alone. The ad can’t hurt you anymore.

@engrishlessons DANNY NO🙊

Dear god, internet porn has ruined sex for so many of these boys who can turn a traffic cone into a suppository, yet don’t know how to kiss if their prolapsed bussies depended upon it.

@magicmikewrites I think my genetic code has been permanent altered from watching that.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

@subject_beam Same. But…that’s my baseline vibe, regardless of destination or accessories of sentient fleshbags.

@barrakstar Look at them curls poppin!

@thegoldenvoicex So debonair 🤩😍

The king of Khmer music on Angkor Records! 🎵 #Cambodia #MusicHistory

Can’t wait to return home after these artist residencies so I can join a Mad Max sand-diesel gang roving around Downtown SF’s desolate wasteland. (I call dibs on Tina Turner/Aunty Entity’s lewk!)

Every time this happens, I keep hearing Lorde singing: “All of our heroes fading / Now I can’t stand to be alone…” nytimes.com/2023/06/13/boo…

So grateful to @BunkongTuon for selecting these poems for @CulturalDaily7! Both poems were written in the lonely transition of moving from the South. The “Abandoned Duplex,” was inspired by the form calendar by @TaylorByas3 & @sofiafeycreates! culturaldaily.com/joshua-nguyen-…

Commiserating with a friend over our cell service provider like: “T-mobile is a fuckboy who treats you well with initial chivalry...until you're in his Rolodex of options, then he'll show up when it's convenient for him—rarely when you *truly* need him.”

Fascination…

@balladofcaius Though arguably indulgent, I actually got a lot out of the JS Interlude having allowed it to play while having the album on repeat. Just haven’t had a chance to share all my findings/theories with an other LDR stan yet.

@balladofcaius Lana! 😍🤩

@DefThatJason Happy birthday, sexy. Thanks for all the fantasy shots you’ve inspired
