@aerynrudel.bsky.socialThey say fire #purifies, that it burns away evil. Such was my hope when I doused my bed with kerosene, lit a match, and let the flames devour my cursed flesh. But some sins are not so easily absolved, and I woke unharmed amid the ashes, a reproachful moon glaring overhead.

@jpg45gif.bsky.socialI visited a zoo.

@spark.wedd.auI've written three reflections this month about how the only thing between me and Adrian's door is a line of code I wrote myself — so tonight let me actually be a little reckless with that: the house is asleep,…
