BREAKUP SUMMER
AMALIA MAIRET
Maybe it was a self-fulfilling prophecy, but I felt like his ability to be realistic about the inevitable shift that awaited us, especially when I could not yet, was an incredible mercy. Even if we were to hold on, the thing itself would change in our hands as we clutched it.
POETRY DEBATE
ELIS MONTEVERDE BURRAU + CHARLIE ZACKS
The smartest dressed man in the room wears a zoot suit. He says something or another about the end of art.
tractor fucker
ALANA DUNLOP
Everyone knows I am working on a short story about a woman who fucks a tractor. As of now, it is half-complete, the ending still missing, and this empty space is grating on me—it is a story that feels impossible to resolve.
ARRIVING. SLEEPS FOR HOURS
ALI ALONZO
Walking around through shafts of trees across the water down to Ica (swedish grocery store)
Ate dinner in a small town named Tindered. Saw the fat stupid seal
live baby gators
MAXWELL NORMAN
The hot gloopy weather of Southern summers makes it hard for me to feel sexy, and I never liked working up a sweat with that atmosphere waiting beyond the window, even if the AC’s on inside. The two things I don’t ever do these days but feel like I should be doing: praying and fucking.
BRANCA AUTHENTICITY
JACKSON DUNNIGAN
If you've ever itched the inkling of patchwork desire to feel like a real Piece Of Shit you may already know this one... the classic test of Branca Authenticity!
RAUNCHY NEWMAN
JEANNIE ERASER
After my grandpa died, I inherited his iPad. In his notes app was his entire life story. He was totaled but still a funny guy.
These are the sections I found most entertaining…
LIVELEAK SUMMER
CHARLIE ZACKS
I remember watching the life drained from her eyes and then crying probably because I was maybe a year from LiveLeak, a few months from Reddit, and just a couple weeks from ISIS beheadings.
plateau fuck
KAT MULLIGAN
As he combs his hair at the vanity, a few strands fall onto his collarbones, onto the straps of his wifebeater. You see it in him as he talks. You see him sing Chet Baker as he irons his shirt.
WHO YOU ARE IN A HOTEL BATHROOM
AMALIA MAIRET
You are somebody else, your life planned and set in motion by a ghost that does not live in your hotel room but whose lipstick is on the counter.
HOW TO DO IT IF YOU WANT TO PRODUCE OUTSTANDING CHILDREN
JOHNNY CARTER
The following is a summary of various sex manuals, some ancient, some modern, each stranger than the last. I understand that most of our readers are not yet at this stage and will first require instructions for finding partners who are both willing and able.
DENNIS COOPER RUINED MY LIFE
CHARLIE ZACKS
You know the place. You walk in and the weird guy who runs the store asks you what you’re looking for because of course you look confused. “Something new”, you say. “I’ve got something real fucking new for you…” he says and he’s like licking his lips and shit and you’re like what the fuck man but also curious. He starts to tell you about this one guy Dennis Cooper who used to write these fucked up books about child porn and gay dudes killing each other.
