![Poem by Orchid Tierney, titled "dear dr. Williams :: hypotrich conjugation [suctoria]"
some sessile ciliates fuse at their mouths :: to share genetic material :: and sometimes one absorbs the other :: to multiple their animal :: until you can no longer see where memory and midnight curve in the middle :: although this one pair here :: you watch spin their improvisions in the fluid :: until their cytoplasmic bridge collapses :: and membanes grossly rupture :: slip their cherry organs into the wet together:: with such grace that it aluminises the light debt :: and you think :: how you wish you could shatter like that](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xn46t6pplphbqbzzhfcw6ahn/bafkreigqemkrjqkmbus6v4txbi3ri5pljbqcxizop6zwoimcxa4eoebncm)

It’s fucked up that one of the requirements to be a successful writer nowadays is you have to be hot online. Writers used to have Gremlin’s Privilege. We must retvrn
It's world collage day. Here's an old one of mine from "Greater Vegas..." (which is also an erasure of both "God Save the Queen" the national anthem and the song by the Sex Pistols of the same name)

Imagine if empire cared about life as much as it cares about death and destruction. Late capitalism's prophet is Schumpeter; its guru is Heinlein; its soul is cyborg-tweaking.
MJW@wilsonmj.bsky.social · 4mo agoFuck these people. They are evil. They are disgusting. And they are dismantling all the things that are good. morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/breaking-t...
Slight delay on the 10th Anniversary issue. It's our biggest in 10 years, so there's a lot to put together. But it will be worth it. In the meantime, subs open in two hours yaaaaay.
