Been hunting for a favourite panel but that's pretty much everything with Jennifer in it. File 5--the perspective over the staircase is particularly memorable.

2025.09.16 // Well two days ago I woke up, put on the over-ear headphones, and listened to /The Sign/ in its entirety, as usual. I can't write without Amelia's favourite album running through my head, duh. Is it time at last?, I thought--enough brain space after weeks of helping two separate parties move house? Then I saw a sticky note reminding me to update the glossary. Ch. 10 still awaiting transfer from brain to

If anyone is ever like, I'd like to know what the hell is going on with this story but I don't feel like reading the whole book so far--rest assured, email me and I will send you a 3k word, hypomanic screed about any and all of it.

Well today is the day to get my gecko a new front-opening terrarium, I think. Sometimes I'm like, why did I set myself up for a chapter like this. "Dune-scale sci-fi epic about sentient trees" playing out while the main character narrates through a massive dose of THC? Literally two chapters ago I had to research and think up a whole opera.

readsable's avatar readsable 1 week ago

And then I recall that this isn't my style, necessarily. Karim/Cuprate *cannot* turn down a challenge, even his final and greatest challenge of writing a story about himself. So of course he's going to make ch. 10 happen. As his invisible god, I can't let him down.

Thank YOU so much; although most of the work is the writing, I take a lot of pride in visual design. My code is probably garbage but it seems to work.

Hi! Thank you for your reply to my poetry post last week. I didn't recall hearing of Lear, but I have plenty of respct for any fan of birds. And as a fan of Zhuangzi, Li Bai, and follower of Lao Tzu, I think I'd quite agree with the philosophy behind literary nonsense.

2025.09.09 // Waking up and not knowing what to read is worse than waking up with your last pack of Spirits on empty. The drive to read the next book I've *planned* is overwhelm---What's this? Moby-Dick; or, the Whale? The Arion 1983 paperback edition I picked up for $5 because it looks like someone dipped the edges in the UV machines they use in hotel air purifiers? Don't mind if I do.

This copy of Moby-Dick is a reprint of an unbelievably fancy version from four years earlier. Some gorgeous hand-set thing that sold for $1k *in 1979*. You can now pick one up for $22,000, or $50k if you'd like the white-bound version.

Coming in late November I'll be reviewing Alan Moore's Jerusalem. Check out Reading Project, if you somehow know of my page but not theirs. It's quite the collective database.

Hello! Thanks for responding to my post earlier this week. I've looked into Xuan Quynh, who is unfortunately not featured in my Norton Anthology. In English, I found a few paragraphs of biographical information on one webpage, four poems translated by Thanh Kha group, and one by K.T. Tuan. Archive didn't even have any books by her :( However, I did find a YouTube video of "Top 5 Bài Hay Nhất của Xuân Quỳnh", recited

by Viet Thanh. The translated poetry I read was so wonderful and song-like, more so than most poetry by a long shot. My favourite was "Heart sings". I found myself smiling softly quite often, the unknown quality of these translations nonwithstanding.

After listening to the original Vietnamese, I understood much more why they feel so song-like. Thanks again for the recommendation :)

I'm glad you enjoyed "Heart sings" poem, there is also "Waves" and "Noon rooster", are the poems I like a lot. And yes, I think you do realized some of her poems has been set to music a long while now :]] Maybe I would post some of my favorite poem translations to the site and link the sources

I turned to my old Norton Anthology to see if we had read any of her work in my courses, and I immediately remembered Coal. Her enjambment makes her work very fun to read aloud.

I also read the brief bio on Lorde on Poetry Foundation. My personal favourite line of anything I read was the second from Hanging Fire: "and my skin has betrayed me". To speak of lived experience, this is mine every day! Take care.

readsable's avatar readsable 3 weeks ago

To be clear, the line is likely about race and/or puberty, but it really hit home re: autoimmune diseases. I think some variant of that line every week it seems.

Oh, finally, I was excited to hear about *Zami: A New Spelling of My Name* as it brought the term "biomythography" to me. I'm quite passionate about the seamless blending of truth and lies in the context of fiction.

so happy you dived into her work, her legacy and words are so so important to me. and totally agree about the enjambment, she's also such a great orator and and hearing her read her own work aloud is so satisfying

Thanks for replying to my post. I do remember hearing about the Smith version, now, but not the fact that the second stanza shifts ahead to a fallen London, reclaimed by nature. Real cool to hear from the early 19th c.

I ended up on a tangent via Wikipedia, finding "Eighteen Hundred and Eleven" by Barbauld. It presages the hegemonic rise of the U.S. by 130 years, somehow.
