I saw commodification of people as the next logical progression in the late-capitalist hellscape portrayed in Infinite Jest, with time itself pawned off to the highest corporate bidder. An interview with MEAT PUPPETS author Hannah Smart by Christian McDonough: www.bruisermag.com/mcdonough_sm...

hi. don’t usually post mag updates on here but today i have a story that’s so good i can’t not. it’s ‘empty sets’ by @chrisfogle.bsky.social; i insist you take a look at this one burialmagazine.neocities.org/emptysets

Empty Sets

New essay out in the Los Angeles Review of Books t.co/O6mAPYY85h

I announced this on Twitter but I’ll announce it here too for those who missed it: I have a novel getting published next year

I don’t think I ever announced it formally on here but I have a Substack substack.com/@howlingfant... where I post mostly fiction but other stuff too. If I somehow get to 500 subs I’m gonna drop my favorite short story I’ve ever written

QOTD: favorite dfw paragraph ever?

Am maybe gonna start tweeting on here more if I can find my 3700 best friends

How is obsessive compulsive disorder even real like bro just stop lol

How are you all, Bluesky peoples?

So is this place still a barren wasteland or can I finally quit Twitter?

Bluesky kinda flopped lowkey

I like that Bluesky let’s me emojify infinite jest in my username bc on twitter it doesn’t let me use the infinity sign

Hello. I am still alive and not dead

I’ll start using this more once all my twitter people get on here

Jack should buy back the twitter domain and rename this place twitter

If we’re mutuals on twitter and you follow me here and you have a different profile/username lmk who you are lol

So why is it so hard to get on here? Seems like what everyone wants from twitter and everyone besides the blue check morons would switch over if they could so why make it exclusive? Seems like a bad business move
