Need Hanya Yanagihara to know she’s scarred me for life bc I just watched (and cried *a lot*) to Heated Rivalry fully expecting a car to come out of nowhere at any minute and kill them both
I don’t wish to overstate this but I do think I’d sooner off myself than join a run club
Inspired
just discovered pre-heating my jumper on the radiator and I may never go back
Question: what the fuck is a widget
Of course not
I rewatched Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet the other night and I honestly think the balcony scene really fucked me up. Sobbing uncontrollably at what is arguably his least compelling play

So we’re all in agreement that Trump video is AI, correct?
This poem was incredible - would love to read more of your work!

Couldn’t tell you what happened in the new superman film. I spent 2 hrs marvelling at how absurdly supple Nicholas Hoult’s skin is. Incredible. Not a wrinkle on the man.

'We turned a corner' into a moment suspended between tequila soda and amnesia. A poem from Emily A. Taylor / @emwrote.bsky.social about longing, fleeting touch, and the quiet chaos of connection.

Don’t do a poetry reading, mention that the following poems are for your recently passed father (for context), and not expect everyone to come up after and offer their condolences. Very stupidly I did not see that coming
It’s 2025 why am I still getting cold calls
Just write words. They don't have to be good. In fact, the less you feel about them the better off you will be. Preserve yourself. You're going to be doing this for the rest of your life.
If you’ve not read it already, Men Who Hate Women (Laura Bates) would be a great place to start research for this!
Buzzing for @brettvt.bsky.social one of our hilarious and exceedingly lovely stanza members for his NPC long listed poem, which he brought to stanza! Feel v filled with much love today for our little stanza group and all our talented poets ❤️
I think if someone invented the sestina today they would be murdered
SpareRoom is actually worse than the dating apps bc there’s no alcohol involved and also bc they’re not only rejecting me, they’re rejecting my plants. Frankie and Boris never hurt anyone and don’t deserve this
I’m losing the will to post on all these social media accts but this is an important one. @queer-poetry-co.bsky.social are hosting our first ever FLINTA* open mic fundraising for @thecommonpress.bsky.social on 26 Feb. I am beyond excited for this one 🥹

Poets could find signs like this useful
A gorgeous pamphlet I would highly recommend xxx
Stocks fell sharply today as 5% of investors suddenly realized that it shouldn't cost a trillion dollars to make a machine that writes terrible poems.
My dad just called me to request we collect his ashes in a weetabix box bc he thinks it would be hilarious. My stepmother does not find this hilarious. Unfortunately for her this does, in fact, make the prospect even more hilarious
Congrats Elizabeth! Looking fwd to seeing you read ✨
