Lincoln Michel@thelincoln.bsky.social · last mo.When your brand is being pompous know-nothings pontificating on topics you're too lazy to even Google, well... I guess you might as well lean into it.
Loving all the banal Americana the World Cup has made fun again, esp the cute little PE pinnies players have to wear on the sideline
Cool people are judging this. Cool people with fabulous, discerning taste, who want to read YOUR words. (Also, me, I am judging too.)

Great but also, what?? Hate to disappoint the AI agent but at this price, I might be feeling very, very disappointed indeed.
I am once again begging, praying, weeping for lists of written instructions rather than videos. I do not want to watch your two minute video in the hope of catching the two seconds where you whizz past what goddamn menu the thing is under. Write. It. Down.

The Ordinary Contest returns! In full transparency (since this is a very transparent contest) I’m excited to be on the other side of Submittable as a judge 👩⚖️
foofaraw press@foofarawpress.bsky.social · 3mo agoSomeone good at self-promotion would probably tease this sort of thing out... but I'm excited to announce An Ordinary Contest is coming back! Early bird entries will open next week for $5 and then go up to $10 in June, with writing occurring during August.

Aaron Burch@aaronburch.bsky.social · 3mo agoformatting @mrscavedowrites.bsky.social's Short Story, Long Q&A for next week and first answer ends, "Maisie’s arc also owes a great debt to my being a hapless teenage horndog." Doesn't that make you wanna go read the story rn (if you haven't already)?!
On this day in Prince history: Prince died 10 years ago today and everything has sucked since. Also on this date (in 1986): Two (!) #Prince songs topped the Billboard Hot 100. “Kiss” at 1 and “Manic Monday,” which he wrote for The Bangles, at 2. #ripprince
You know that teenage feeling of, anything could happen, and also, not really understanding what‘s happening? I wrote a story about that feeling, and am very grateful to @jessdawn.bsky.social and @aaronburch.bsky.social for getting it out into the world. 💫
