when i pulled up to the bar and saw Ethan reading this is I said “what is that?” and then said “what year is this?”
Anyway, it’s a cool sci-fi lit mag with coupons and cut-and-mail subscription. Feels very good for fans of PI’s reading group and Left Hand of Darkness in particular. (I read a story about what sexual autonomy means in an age of complex body/mind modification ((which we should all aspire to.))

A fantastic, underappreciated gem of a short story. A tour-de-force of a philosophical mindfuck. A shockabuku*, ala Grosse Pointe Blank. The Egg is all of these things, and more.
Go read it now, it won't take long.

this is one of tHE most captivating & compelling pieces of storytelling i've ever seen. it's multimedia speculative fiction about a distant future. it stars sapient space probes and an immortal and infertile human race, and explores their quest for fun to fill eternity. it's devastating and hopeful and i think it's maybe my favourite thing i've ever read, in both content and in form.

Rant incoming: we need to place more value on printed photography rather than treating photographs merely as objects of our brief attention. I can physically feel a need for this. A real object of memory that we can hold and keep and watch fade. A piece of art on your wall to look at every day that reminds you of another time, a place you’ve been, a person you’ve been, how you felt. I’m so glad that film photography still exists, and that people actually care here. It scares me to think that it might not one day, and that my kids might not be able to experience the pure joy and magic of shooting film.
It also scares me to look at photography’s place in the commercial art world, and how devalued it is in the past couple years. I know a big reason for this is obviously that they can be reproduced, but I also think a lot of people don’t see the value in photography anymore. after IG became a mall. we should all be buying prints. If everyone was buying prints, the economy would probably be way better and then the film industry would be saved and photographers could live ❤️
I reserve the right to edit this post when I’m not stoned anymore
One more thing: the minute i started thinking about photography less like journaism and more like painting i felt so much better about everything. it just made sense finally. Idk how to explain it. It doesnt have to be fast. it doesn’t even have to make sense.
