There's so much hot fire in the latest @frwell_trans issue, but this piece specifically i've been thinking about a ton since reading it. About McDonald's Diners and much more. Non-fiction but reads like the best of fiction.

stoked to be in @frwell_trans with an essay about Sum 41 & McDonald's meatloaf & the mall in my hometown & my dad and my brother & really how I just miss the early 2000s.

Big thanks to Lee for publishing!

Tyler Plofker's making a team

We are a team. A crew. A collective. We go by many names: Sausages Delight AKA the Organization AKA the Many Hands of God (or sometimes God is replaced by Lucifer or sometimes replaced by Azrael) AKA the Department of Dudes.

It's become clear that Mr. Robert Manfred has been sabotaging the Mets and Phillies because he's angry this letter went public.

not only is this a wonderful snapshot of a particularly jagged piece of This Time in Human Creative History, but it's also how I actually design board games. fourteen dead bird thumbs way up. read this or lose 3 shiny stones

@BurialMagazine @joshuahebburn @cdankland Haha, thanks man

[Tyler Plofker @TylerPlofker]

Stoked to be back in X-R-A-Y w/ a new short story. This is a good story to read if you like board games and the sun, and also if you don't like board games and the sun.

Very thankful to @joshuahebburn & @cdankland & the whole X-R-A-Y crew for publishing!

[X-R-A-Y @xraylitmag]

i love this weirdo story Tyler Plofker @TylerPlofker !

it's blog posts by a man who either invented a board game, or is having a manic break with reality, or both. a very funny story. i love writers who experiment with voice. read it !
