I, Human . Content Warning.
As a "humans", I've only written once in the Humans community. Funny that, isn't it? I mean it's not funny like Norm MacDonald's drawn-out joke here, but odd funny that I'd seen that community many times and scooted passed it. Others have written in it plenty of times, but not I. I mean, there's no rules, but as a human, it seems it's worth rectifying that omission. Or else I am playing against the bot-catching, Captcha style checks that regularly pass me as a human. Or something. (As further evidence of my humans-iness, I completely forgot that I had already written in Humans a while ago, so edited this piece accordingly to reflect that. As it originally said I had never written in the Humans community.)

With No Due Respect. Content Warning.
My stories will never be labelled Trickensian. Though, I admit, it's a relief I feel most of his work is shit, apart from maybe that ghost story with Marley, the crazy cigar-smoking cabbie, and Bill Murray.

Broken Tree
Stand still please, look and see, the magic, and wonder of my broken knee. ... Did I say knee, I meant to say tree.
