this poem contains several of the worst sentences i've ever written

there’s a girl working at my favorite diner who i swear to god has the exact appearance and vibe of an irl wendy from gravity falls and she is really doing something to me good lord

this probably looked really nice like a week or two ago

that episode of voyager where she let down her hair really did something for me as a kid

the quintessential american pastime might be forcing yourself to do things that happy people do spontaneously

every picture or video of an animal is pretty much universally good, like it's really hard to go wrong with those. the fact that the same isn't true of humans points at some things that i think are very sad

any of y'all exactly the right age to remember STREET SHARKS

what's a piece of media you love(d) that a person younger than you would not believe actually existed? here's mine

the worst curse i can imagine inflicting on someone is deluding them about what love is, waiting for them to fall in what they think is love, get married, raise a family, and then fifteen years later cursing them to actually fall in love for the first time with someone else

when jorge luis borges was 19 his father arranged for him to lose his virginity to a prostitute. he apparently found the experience so scarring that he was unable to have sex for the rest of his life

No more selfies. Please. I don't care what you look like. Say something interesting

what's the dumbest thing you've ever done to impress someone you were into i once jumped into the basin of a waterfall from 10 feet up b/c a girl asked me if i was joining her in the water and i didn't know how to swim and almost drowned

if you'd like to know what kind of musicposts you're missing out on from me b/c bluesky doesn't have audio or video yet here's my most popular musicpost from twitter so far: i write sins not tragedies by carl wheezer https://twitter.com/QiaochuYuan/status/1639782027477282816?s=20

imaginal practice is the art of navigating mythopoetic currents. It’s dismembering limiting beliefs, uprooting invasive psychoflora, rewilding the ecosystem of your bodymind https://open.substack.com/pub/inthewilderless/p/mythopoetic-cognition-is-the-engine?r=lqhc6&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post

should i *mathpost* on here? do you guys want *math hot takes*? that could be fun and it's not something i've really done on twitter. anyone have any math questions?

thinking about how mathematician paul erdos took amphetamines to fuel his work and once a friend bet him $500 he couldn't stop for a month. he did and afterwards complained "you've set mathematics back a month"

if we had video and not just pictures i could start posting music but,,, currently i'd have to post external links which are a million times worse than embedded video. even voice posts would allow me to start doing some fun stuff

there's a depth of discussion that doesn't really seem possible on bluesky yet, or at least i haven't seen it and the momentum doesn't seem pointed towards it. people seem more focused on... finding their people? talking about the protocol and moderation?

anyway in case anyone was wondering what i actually do, i have a substack and this is my latest post, "fuck me / marry me / kill me"https://qchu.substack.com/p/fuck-me-marry-me-kill-me

i actually know what tpot is. @sonikudzu.bsky.social gave me the last piece i was missing. not gonna give the game away yet but i'm cooking

once i screamed so hard at a workshop i burst the blood vessels in my neck and my neck was covered by hundreds of little red dots for a couple of days. at the same workshop i cried so much my feet changed shape and didn't fit my shoes afterwards

tell me about your most primal scream

when i was a kid i tried to make an imaginary friend out of one of the beetleborgs (the gold one) but it didn't work and i never tried to make another imaginary friend again

a person dedicated to hatred is a person deeply starved of love, a person who does not believe that love exists and has trapped themselves in hell by acting in such a way as to make themselves as unlovable as possible

the most hateful person you’ve ever met was a baby once. nobody is born that way. things happen between being a baby and now to turn people towards hatred and they are all heartbreaking

this reminds me that i always wanted a tool for visualizing the full structure of twitter threads, *including* QTs. it would be a collection of trees where QTs are like warp points from parts of one tree to another. to do it really satisfyingly it'd have to be in 3d i think

the most confusing part of the seattle bsky meetup was trying to figure out which of the girls there were single

threading doesn't really seem to work here (subsequent posts after the first don't seem to show up for other people or something?) which messes with my main twitter workflow but i suppose i can just keep throwing out individual random thoughts and practice being more unhinged

i never thought i'd say this but i don't actually want to look at titties, i'm on day 60 of no fap + no porn and i want to keep the streak up for as long as possible. still waiting for the day 90 magic powers

it’s been pretty fun so far but my god i have not had to have so many object-level opinions in a long time

about to head to the seattle bsky meetup, looking forward to meeting all kinds of filthy degenerate poasters (affectionate)

2.5 hours in and we’re finding out who the truly dedicated poasters are
