There are certainly more sophisticated ways of talking about how the movie They Cloned Tyrone fits so well within the tradition of Black surrealism. One can draw a line, say, from Get Out to Sorry to Bother You to They Cloned Tyrone.

Joining in the Heated Rivalry discourse even tho I haven’t seen it lol. But the show heavily—and I mean heavily—reminds me of how the creators and audience of Yaoi are never gay men, but instead are largely straight women.

Art lives in the process, in the struggle to grow and figure out the specific needs of the work, and in the arrival at a better understanding of the artist’s limitations. The product is just the end result of the art.

Instead of looking for “the next liberal Joe Rogan” or asking for donations by email or any of the “optics” which try to cater to the nonexistent “centrist”, the Dems SHOULD be out on the streets, in the communities they represent, actually doing the work

SHOW ME WHERE THE HURT IS, @haydenmcasey13.bsky.social’s debut story collection, has arrived in the SLP office! Preorders will begin shipping shortly, so if you were waiting until closer to pub day (April 22) to place your order, there’s no need to delay your gratification! Link in bio to purchase!

Copies of Hayden Casey‘s book, Show Me Where the Hurt Is stacked beside an empty glass with a lily beside it, meant to mimic the lily on the cover, except Kristine couldn’t bring herself to wait until the lily died

A very big welcome to the newest member of the SLP family, Shanda McManus, whose memoir BROTHER EPISTLES, a series of letters to the author's murdered brother, was selected from our 2024 NF/H submissions period! We cannot wait for you all to read Shanda's book in June 2026!!!

Absolutely donate to libraries, but…I would heavily caution donating to Wikipedia. The people who write the articles are volunteers (a third of which have been written/edited by 1 person). Which means that those donations don’t go the people who keep the site running.

One of my first contributions in the new year will be to the Wikimedia Foundation to help support Wikipedia. And then my next contribution will be to my local library.
