@AsteadWH Had so many moments of "ugh I can't hear this anymore" but then "but I need to keep listening anyway because it's Astead."
English
@AsteadWH I hated everything you were saying and didn't believe you... but I kept listening and following because I always knew you were basing your reporting on actual shoe leather and rigor. Nobody doing it better. Been following since Boston Globe.

Tuesday didn’t fall out of a coconut tree!! And too much of the immediate reaction is focused on the past two months and not the past two years

Shout out to @AsteadWH his coverage of this campaign on the Run Up has helped me understand why and how things have played out the way they have.

@walkipedia It's my memory that in EVERY of my Dallas childhood years, October started out like this, and you'd plan your costume accordingly, and then suddenly it was a cold snap the day before Halloween and you had to wear a big coat
English
@austingragg Granted, my personal "made the big time" dream isn't a fancy watch or a house, it's being able to put out my projects and not then have to post anything about them. Have someone else triage my mail, etc.
English
@austingragg Immaturity is pretty exactly the vibe. It's not that it's awful, it's more like "oof don't post this." Somebody this suddenly famous should probably not be acting as their own media team. Like, I negotiate my own contracts NOW but I wouldn't if I was Steven King.

@liu_angela It's all creative commons but with the requirement that you add more to whatever bit you use. Somebody wrote a thesis about it, but I don't remember where.
English
@liu_angela 2014-2016, I wrote public daily microfiction, and then less frequently since then; I think some of it got down to four words. Some of the stories are better than others. postorbital.tumblr.com/archive

Writers, what’re the shortest stories you’ve ever written and published (top 3)?
Mine are:
Tiny Fires on the Toyoko Line (250 words)
paranoidtree.com/read/vol-39
The Nightmare Delivery Service (424 words)

Human Trash (432 words)

@liu_angela Meanwhile, I love reading Boulevard but their submissions policies are trash. Would never.
English
@liu_angela it's my experience there's a big falloff in pay once you step outside SF and are un-agented. With that in mind, I like Moist Poetry Journal (where I've been published) and I like Psaltery & Lyre (where I haven't been, but I like what they do).

Question: what're your favorite places to sub lit poetry? I've got a few non-spec poems that I love but have no idea where to send.
English
@romiesays Omg Romie, I think we are talking about the same place 😭
English
My favorite story was accepted nearly two years ago, and I still have no idea when they'll publish it 😭
English
@sillysyntax I panicked reading this because I went too fast and thought you'd done all this since June *2024* and was like how? how? is time bending? and yes it was but in a my fault way.

IT'S HAPPENING!!!!!
Alex Cora, @RedSox manager, has announced that on Monday, Danny Jansen will substitute in for Reese McGuire at catcher (who is not on the current roster) for the resumption of the 6/26 game with the @BlueJays), meaning he will not only become the first player to play for both teams in the same game in MLB history, but he will catch the at bat that he himself started and must be pinch-hit for.
MLB Scoring Changes@ScoringChanges
So there is a lot at play. Jansen is the batter that is at the plate when the @RedSox and @BlueJays game resumes, and he had an 0-1 count. Since the pinch hitter doesn’t inherit a 2-strike count, all action will be charged to the pinch hitter. However, to make room for Jansen, the Red Sox DFA’ed Reese McGuire, who was the starting catcher in the suspended game, meaning there is a high probability that Jansen will come in to catch.

@dereknason I feel certain that it's only a matter of time before we get double dutch jump rope in the olympics. I look forward to the day.
English
Olympic breakdancing is evidence that we sometimes get better, cooler as a species and that it’s not 100% bad out there.
English
@dereknason This is the closest I've found so far.
So far.

I’m not making up my mind until we see the record, playbook,
& depth charts for the football team Walz coached.

(I transcribe a lot of boxing for work. It's 30 to 40 minutes of trash talk trash talk trash talk hype, a couple minutes of boxing, and then 15 to 30 minutes of analysis. Not always, but often.)
English
I think most people's understanding of boxing is based on climactic dramatic slo-mo moments from boxing movies. It's common for matches to end very quickly. Even if you go a full round... that's three minutes.
