Man, this flash by @kathyfish.bsky.social. Like, heartstoppingly good. "My childhood best friend was beautiful. For many years, she had to wear a back brace. It gave her a dignified air, as if a string were attached to the top of her head, pulling her up tall." ghostparachute.com/issue/octobe...

"I closed my eyes and held my fingers to my temples. Nothing. Just the quiet field. The two of us sitting in the truck cab, the summer sun still hot in the evening. She said anyone could do it but no one was like her. I’d known that right away." This is an honor--thank you @okaydonkeymag.com 🌟

"I’m not saying I know how to live. I’m saying I may have invented having cake for breakfast, wine for lunch, and breakfast for dinner. I’m saying I miss my father, who is very much alive." Thank you to The Disappointed Housewife, @offbeatlit.bsky.social , for giving this micro the perfect home.

"people want to be free and not held down especially on top of the head what they want I think is freedom on a large scale and freedom on a small scale but they also want to be in love which means you are not free but a captive held in a prison of irrational attachment"

"I dream of giving up on working hard for a living and instead finding a passion project like designing hats that bring hats back into style for real" Always a fan of @jeffreyhermann.bsky.social's writing - so much creativity and verve to this

“Sure, AI can do _______, but it’ll never be able to ______” is BS. It’ll do it and make money and be popular and enter the culture in every creative field. You might despise it but you’ll be fooled too. Where does that leave us? No idea. And it'll get messier. But I appreciate this essay so much.

Check out this perfect little gem by @addisonzeller.bsky.social. "My owners feed me rich mush with no irritating spices. I get to lap clear water out of my calming blue bowl. I was not always a dog. I was once an unconventional cop with a Polish surname."
