My eating disorder and sleep disorder combine at 2am and so here I am in the kitchen making a double bowl of oatmeal


I’m at the age where any conversation I start is either about gardening or healthcare. I’m so sorry.

I wish the English language wasn’t using “dropped” as “introduced” as WELL as for “let go” because it is quite confusing


Do I HAVE to get out of this bath and go to bed?


My fridge has started to make excited “woo!” noises in the middle of the night. It’s either prepping for robot takeover of the world, or it’s dying, because the food we have in there right now is not that exciting.


Submitted a batch of poems to a couple of journals today. I feel quite proud of myself!


Love going to the gym first thing in the morning so I can be absolutely destroyed for the entire rest of the day


Woke up this morning believing the two-goats-one-car game show calculation was the “Mel Tormé problem”. Good morning.


Why are there two “32 Poems” accounts? Who is the real account and who the imposter? @32poems @32_Poems Fight it out, you guys.

Bitcoin and NFTs were invented because of a scarcity of scarcity. Someone decided that there isn't enough scarcity around and decided to make a bunch more scarcity so now we have an abundance of scarcity. A bona fide cornucopia of dearth.


There’s a story about a man who sits down at a cafe with biscuits, and the man opposite starts eating them. The narrator takes one and they eat, silently, until the other man leaves and the narrator finds HIS biscuits under his paper. Who wrote it? Douglas Adams? @neilhimself ?
