I see the wings in everything
My life at the moment exists in irregular alternation between nights I can avoid the construction with other stress and mornings visited by the asphalt roller of the apocalypse. We have a steel plate in front of our house and a sort of trench across the block. I slept on and off in the morning and toward evening went for a walk.

The milkweed is turning ghostly.

These flowers looked hand-painted and were orbiting with bees.

The hibiscus was crystallizing with pollen.

Last night, Hestia made a persuasive argument that we should feed her—again—instead of watching It Came from Outer Space (1953).
Have some links.
1. I wish Adam Schlesinger were around to appreciate Sub-Radio's "Stacy's Dad" (2022).
2. Please anyone with sense make a movie from the photo which leads off this interview with Chloë Sevigny.
3. By stumbling into one of its chapters, I have just discovered the full open-access text of The Dybbuk Century: The Jewish Play That Possessed the World (ed. Debra Caplan and Rachel Merrill Moss, 2023), my sole complaint being that I feel it stole its title from Gwynne Garfinkle or Rebecca Fraimow or Jeannelle M. Ferreira.
4. I have not yet listened to Michael Symmons Roberts' Danger 2023 (2023), but I will be fascinated to see if it works with its conceit as directly as Richard Hughes' Danger (1924).
5. Because everyone is sharing it and I can't draw Jack Griffin covered in cheese snack crumbs: "The dye in Doritos can make mice transparent."

Thank you. It has now been actually six months. We are fairly confident it caused one set of our next-door neighbors to move out in the middle of a month. It just feels like so much stolen time.
