Dumpsters rot in the alley below us, and in the sky ahead distant roofs flash intermittently, silver and bright, and birds sit defiant. The true lords of the city of Phoenix.<br/>Walking downtown, we look for a bar, any bar— but not that one— landing in the Mortgage Matchup Center. Final destination. I watch the arena fill until every wall is made of faces except for the one in front of us all, and then I watch them smile, dance, and move as music drowns the room. James Mercer on the stage is like an animal who crawled out of my memory, and he sings the songs the 12-year-old under my face still sings when she stirs. The moment fulfills a prophecy I didn&#39;t realize I’d written, and I’m aware of all the others that hang— fruit ripening on the vine which dangles over my open mouth.<br/>I will grow older again.<br/><br/><a href="https://anymoreanyways.bearblog.dev/quick-trip/">https://anymoreanyways.bearblog.dev/quick-trip/</a><br/><br/>#rss #feeds #linksharing #qwibbit 2026-10-25T02:46:16Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqs9fxxazj6sjtmsj8dt4838h5exfehgr29ykh2876fyql27n7xt69czyp6wfcqyzt4dxxypk04e2xuewrexh60czdln4nyj29xr4ulyl47rczk6ukz small talk<br/><br/>&#34;If it doesn&#39;t snow soon<br/>this summer will be all smoke&#34;,<br/>we say and say<br/>again,<br/>this small talk<br/>serving as some<br/>mass recitation,<br/>the human organism<br/>calibrating itself through<br/>every mouth until<br/>the words ring true from<br/>each body.<br/>&#34;Yes, this summer...&#34;<br/>I&#39;ll say it too.

Victor Frankenstein is an idiot<br/>B. I can’t believe he created his monster and then abandoned it<br/>⁃ there are ties here to child rearing. what happens if you do not help a child safely navigate the world, do not support them in finding a place for it<br/>C. Frankenstein has no sense of consequences<br/>⁃ if you abandon this creature you made, it is still going to exist and it is going to take on a life of its own.<br/>⁃ If he’s killing people he’s probably going to kill more people.<br/>D. When Frankenstein returns home, his family keeps trying to resolve his malaise without ever actually touching the heart of it<br/>⁃ he is not just melancholy because he’s melancholy, he’s melancholy because his creation is killing those he loves and threatening him and is still at large. How is he meant to move forward from his pain if the risk of it still remains and the creature still exists? His ignorance of the problem of the creature throughout the book is what creates all the strife he endures. Don’t be so self absorbed by your own feelings, look to reality and repair it. You cannot play pretend.<br/>E. Throughout the whole book Victor is trying to pretend the monster does not exist while also contending with the consequences of its existence, like, come onnnn<br/>F. Be a little rational Victor, please. Use your brain, or talk to people who can use their brains<br/>G. Only once the monster has taken everything from him does he stop pretending that he can somehow evade him, and then he is consumed by revenge<br/>I. But I understand the horror of feeling powerless in having your whole life stripped from you by something you have created which feels insurmountable<br/>K. His emotions alternately power or incapacitate him<br/>L. Once the vestiges of his life are stripped away, Victor assumes his true fate which is to destroy his creation, whatever the physical toll. He was always going to wind up there, but everything that could distract him had to fall away first. Like flowers cut for a vase, his family was dead as soon as he created the monster, it was only a question of when their death would come<br/>M. It feels unfair to call his creation a monster, yes it has agency, but it did not initially desire to be evil. It was turned to that course by society&#39;s rejection of it, of which Victor was a key part. I find Victor more monstrous in his thoughtlessness and carelessness. Ignorance and neglect.<br/><br/><a href="https://anymoreanyways.bearblog.dev/notes-on-victor-frankenstein-unfavorable-spoilers/">https://anymoreanyways.bearblog.dev/notes-on-victor-frankenstein-unfavorable-spoilers/</a> 2026-10-16T04:08:51Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqstmmqftw83t5sh08mgemr9rd0wex4rh6cjsx75fp3ythxxxnfx6lczyp6wfcqyzt4dxxypk04e2xuewrexh60czdln4nyj29xr4ulyl47rc92jhys Closed moments<br/><br/>Dead on impact. And she asked if there’s a pulse. There wasn’t. I know now, having looked it up weeks after. I know now what neither of us knew then. What we wondered. I sat in the car, 70MPH, thinking I don’t know if he’s dead or alive but I’m glad I’m alive. I don’t know if I will be dead or alive tomorrow but I’m glad I’m alive now. That moment is closed with a bow on it now. Over. Wrapped up. For me at least.<br/>“There was time for us” sings Pinc Louds. Before we knew that things would end there was time. We didn’t know how much time. There was time. The time is over now. The question answered. The moment closed with a bow on it. Over. Wrapped up. For me at least.<br/>The people on the islands of Shishmaref have known since they moved there that the land they call home will one day be swallowed by the sea, and they chose to live on them anyway. We make the promise of adaptation to ourselves with every temporary condition we submit to. (This will end. Who it allows us to be will end. We will be okay. We will learn to be in a different way. That’s the only choice we get. Most things are unholdable. Just passing through. Me too.) And we take what we can until then. I want to say we plunder the moment, but that’s not right. Plundering implies depletion, and depletion is not the goal. Rich sustenance is, ideally mutual rich sustenance.<br/>What does it mean to hold an ended moment inside of you? It feels like a cryo chamber. Something that has reached a stable point of decay— you could deepen that metaphor to explore a human fear of decay and our framing of decay as dangerous, but it’s normal for events to rot inside us, and their byproducts are not poisonous, they are just new nutrients. An addition to the ecosystem. They leak out, disrupt, and then you stabilize.<br/><br/><a href="https://anymoreanyways.bearblog.dev/closed-moments/">https://anymoreanyways.bearblog.dev/closed-moments/</a> 2026-10-16T02:54:21Z
