First of all, look up Ernie Pook’s Comeek and read a few. If you like that style, and also aren’t upset by violence, you might love Cruddy as I do. It’s sweet, charming and grotesque. Link goes to an excerpt from the book

so damn good. currently reading the lady in the lake and man it rips. I love the sense of humor, the descriptions , the storytellin. read some of James Cain earlier this year. even though these works are almost a century old the themes feel v relevant & human.

an excellent novel — it explores the violence and exploitation and treachery within the carceral system, the slippery slope of complacency, queer love, prison abolition, and more. those descriptors may not be very alluring but the right people will still pick it up.

I’m not a parent and do not plan to be. Kids can wear me out fast with their high energy and noise level; it leaves me very over-stimulated. But it’s pretty extreme when people say they ”hate kids” and I often feel it’s a reflection of their childhood and beliefs around how kids “should be.” That they were expected to be quiet, obedient, and out of the way by their parents when they were little. It’s fucking hard to be a kid. You’re dealing with a rapidly-changing body and underdeveloped brain, managed by flawed adults who are enforcing boundaries that you do not understand. It’s confusing and hard to manage your feelings and honestly just a lot. People are impatient with kids when they‘re brand new to the world and figuring it all out, and this is a time kids need a friend the most. Children can also be teachers to adults with how they are less habituated to the world. They teach us how to be free and open-hearted and silly and imaginative. A good practice is to be kinder and gentler with kids. If that feels difficult, start with gentleness toward your inner child. Maybe that’s the child in your life that needs your attention and kindness most.

They keep you grounded and sometimes they keep you caffeinated, too.

I meant to post this yesterday. Absolutely beautiful morning for walk. This morning is also beautiful but in a spring rain kind of way.
