Heather Christle, “The Whole Thing Is The Hard...
I am going to start posting poetry, because a) I read it often and b) because. I’m looking forward to picking up more of Heather Christle’s stuff. I bought one book a few months ago on a lucky whim that may have been 35% a result of the cover art.

what else can you do your bones are all broken
and somebody loves you ...

One of Portlandia’s catchphrases is that it’s “where young people go to retire,” but that doesn’t fully capture it. Rather, think back to the moment when you realized you were grown up enough to buy candy whenever you wanted. Then imagine extending that phase indefinitely, for years.

Amazing Craigslist Ads I Find, Part 3:
Your dog is your best friend and your roommate. Why do you live in a place that only *tolerates* them when you could live in an apartment that is designed for their lifestyle as much as yours? We invite you and your furry roommate to experience Dawg Terrace - a just-renovated apartment community for dogs and their humans…
Amazing Craigslist Ads I Run Across, Pt. 2:
Each Sunday, we share a beautiful brunch, intentionally coming together to check in about ourselves and our communal lived experience. After food, we deliberately dedicate an hour or so to house uplift / temple keeping
We host gatherings and parties fairly regularly and want to increase the community-space use of this home. Previous events: queer two-step party, double birthday, magical retreat,...

My cousin wrote this and I love it. She is a wonder.
Amazing Craigslist Ads I Run Across, Pt. 1:
I’m a 39 y/o independent lady, into cool things, art and music, whatever, you know. I like simple things, smart things, well-built things, funny things, old things, and things that don’t take up excess space. I respond strongly to aesthetics. I like people, and I dig having housemates. The house is lacking in a lot of gross things, like carpet, TV in the living room, or a microwave...

i am making a Truth Blog in which I collect assorted true things I’ve written and hidden in various small, obscure virtual caves (blogs) over the years.
it will either be a hideous mistake or a revelation.
