[[Dusting off some cobwebs, trying to write flashfiction again. Inspired by this piece of ridiculous cuteness from hitRECord.org. Ahem.]]
You left, and I shrank. The apartment became cavernous, I couldn’t make enough noise, take up enough space. Echoing and empty, all winter long. I was a seed, waiting for spring. Insignificant, a gray speck against a white background.
Spring came back, like it...

pansexualpride:
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has only been in office a few months, but he seems poised to do the unthinkable: tell thousands of homeless kids in the state that they deserve to be thrown out on the streets, so that the governor can give tax breaks to millionaires.
Gov. Cuomo will approve a budget this week that at this moment includes drastic cuts for homeless youth services — cuts...

Currently on television:
Something that involves two guys fighting on a subway, with people hanging upside down like sides of beef, and one blonde woman on the sidelines screaming “NOOOOOOO.”
Also, it’s honest-to-god titled The Midnight Meat Train.
Actual quote: Train conductor, surveying human bodies: Please step away from the meat.

Also, whenever I start to edge into some kind of craziness, I start dreaming of floods. Last night, it was tsunamis overtaking the beaches where my best friend lives.
Feeling hermit-y
And like winter will never end. There may be sunlight, but there’s also about a foot of snow outside. I miss the grass. I miss seeing green things. I forgot how gray the northeast gets.

“
Towler spends his first night of freedom with his brother in their mom’s old house. He can’t even shut his eyes. He has so much to do. My lists have lists.

shortformblog:
This is a story you should follow, not least of all because amidst all the brew-ha-ha about Rep. Peter King’s radical Islam hearings, people seem to be overlooking a near-miss attempt at domestic terrorism of a chilling sort. Last January, a backpack was left at a bus stop alongside an MLK Day parade route, inside which was a bomb. And not just any bomb; it was packed with...

Mother Jones’ Mac McClelland analyzes, scrutinizes and successfully takes down the NY Times’ article ”Gang Rape of Schoolgirl, and Arrests, Shake Texas Town”. It’s a must read.
