what’s in the pot
The sounds of the 80s.
One time my rabbi told us, “imagine you had a box with a little bit of god in it. What would you do with the box?”
So we were like ?? “We’d protect it and keep it nice and clean and polished” and he was like “your body’s that box. Stop eating markers”
Every time I come across this post the last sentence smacks me in the face
oh this post’s back
Today in obscure Doctor Who jokes:
Somebody on Twitter pointed out that the Big Finish companion Hex is canonically from the year 2021, so when he occasionally abbreviates the word "suspicious" to "sus," it's probably an Among Us reference.
The punchline is that this character was actually introduced back in 2004. It was made-up future slang that they happened to get right.
“British writer invents time travel and uses it on One Joke”

"unalive" should just mean the opposite of undead. if undead means a dead thing thats alive, unalive shuld mean an alive things thats dead. no i dont have any examples. ☝️yet

worst part about getting angry is how much it makes you want to be mean

This Friday's meme is: the perfect being
Have you seen fossilised crabs. They're hilarious they literally do just
Straight up they are just fully there. Shellfish are really fun like that, i have a shrimp fossil in my collection that's like. Yeah it's just 100% a shrimp, legs and antennae and all. When your skeleton is on the outside, it means your outside fossilises really well.
i must not lie down on my bed with my phone. lying down with my phone is the time-killer. lying down with my phone is the little mistake that brings total academic obliteration. i will face my phone. i will permit it to show me my updated tumblr feed. and when i have scrolled past a few posts i will turn over my phone and place it down. where the procrastination has gone there will be nothing. only i will remain
most important thing to remember about being a woman is if youre married you have to go under the covers with your husband and laugh cutely and play wrestle so when you die to progress the narrative he can remember it in slow motion montages
There Used to Be a Lake Here Once (April, 2024)
I wrote this poetry collection when I was in college and it ended up getting acquired by the Writers Workshop, Kolkata- an Indian independent press that has published, among others, the works of Ruskin Bond, Vikram Seth, Kamala Das, Nissim Ezekiel and AK Ramanujan.
I grew up in Kolkata in the mid 2010s, whilst juggling multiple identities- Bengali girl child, queer teen brought up under a Catholic school system, later, a transgender enby poet and writer reconciling my personal and political worlds through academia and writing. This chapbook, divided into two sections, contains twenty-six poems on Bengali trans queer coming-of-age. I wrote it for the same reason I write all my stories: in the hopes that younger queer and trans desi youths can take some heart, and know they aren't as alone as I felt when I was a kid– even if the versions of India we have lived through are quite different, for better and for worse.
Anyway, cheesy stuff over. My author copies just arrived today and well, aren't they simply beautiful? Apparently, there will be more different colour editions. Which one do you like best?
