Und auf Deutsch, wer möchte, nochmal zum Hören:
Ilse Aichingers „Spiegelgeschichte“ (1949) – Formexperiment und emotionaler gut punch in einem.
CW: #Abtreibung
(Quelle: Vera Teichmann, DLF Kultur)
Finally found an English version of “Mirror Story”, a powerful and haunting short story about the consequences of #abortion bans by Austrian poet Ilse Aichinger.
Remarkably, time is completely reversed here: A woman raises from her deathbed, revisits her fatal illegal abortion, grows estranged from her boyfriend, turns into a child again and eventually gets born.
This should be required reading in every state with an #AbortionPillBan.
Auch schön:

den der Park beim Einatmen einzieht."

#TagdesWaldes meets #WorldPoetryDay:
die stille und das trübe kellerlicht
des walds am nachmittag. und keine bären,
auch wenn dort vorn die gelben tatzenspuren der blätter leuchten, die der ahorn legt.
[aus "waldstück" von Jan Wagner]
I can’t wait to see #Delirium ‘s verbose existential breakdowns on live action!
Oh, man. This comic — from 1993 — could NOT be more relevant today. As usual, Bill Watterson hits it out of the park.
Beautiful example of how “avant-garde” and “mainstream” comics constantly cross-pollinate:
#Marvel’s #Wiccan walking over his own comic’s pages just as Julius Corentin Aquefaques did 20 years before.

“My reputation for the rest of my life is destroyed!” Nah bro, your reputation has been synced with who you are. If that’s negatively affecting you, perhaps some self-reflection is in order, painful as that might be. https://www.washingtonpost.com/media/2023/02/25/scott-adams-dilbert-canceled/
