Now if Melania can just hurl herself off a long flight of stairs tonight we will have almost finished Macbeth on July 4th, 2026.

Looks like little Don Jr. is going to have to snort his cocaine indoors not outdoors. Oh no Covfefe... Titans 1 Dr. Christ 0

They are collecting trash now.

Man alive if he is electrocuted live on tv I might start worshiping lightning again. I do not own a tv though so just keep me posted everybody.

Enjoy the Metro line too crackers. Maybe you'll run into the Khaki Virgins.

Fairly certain somebody just unloaded a .38 less than 100 yards from my kitchen window so I am remaining on my sofa.

People are chanting U.S.A. U.S.A. to thunderstorm clouds. There's a clinical term for that.

Ohhh Covfefe...yeah, hits a little different when cops are telling you all what to do for a change, doesn't it?

Strange person in American flag shorts: "but we drove all the way from Missouri for this..." Park Ranger: "please evacuate...please evacuate. Everybody evacuate your brains please..."

Freedom 250 has been eliminated. Everybody please leave the Freedom 250 grassland. Freedom 250 is over. Thanks.

I'll just leave this right here.

The March of the Khaki Oakley Sunglass Virgins is now inside 12th Street Tunnel, so lost one of them is trying to use a compass and does not know how.

I like pages of books are composed of trees.

I like poems I could never write but I see what they are doing.

I like thinking about what certain writers do not choose to write about as much as what they do write about because they have either thought about that a lot also, or not at all.

It is the hour I want to write but I already know it will take three hours.

Somebody should tell Republicans when they are asleep they automatically become Communists so maybe they should just get some fucking sleep.

The Virginia Humanities just gave The Muse Writers Center in Norfolk, VA a grant to support the wonderful youth classes I help teach. Wowzers.

🎉 We received a grant from Virginia Humanities to support our youth programming that help youth develop their voices, strengthen their craft, practice open discussion, and grow into confident communicators active in their local communities! Thank you, Virginia Humanities!

A frozen skyscraper, covered with gigantic starfish staggering badly, was heading toward us. -- Breton

Heat index 114.

I like how there is a random video from WOUBPBS Ohio where Mark Halliday is getting interviewed for three minutes.

What you must know is that beneath all the windows that you may take a notion to jump out of, amiable imps hold out the sad sheet of love by the four cardinal points. -- Breton

I was going to share the woman on the Metro photo too today but I hesitated because there is always a chance Reuters did not get that woman's permission to publish that photograph.

For ten straight days on this platform I have seen a person post a video about how Lake Superior is not an ocean (because it is a lake) but it behaves like an ocean. The video is like bragging on Lake Superior for acting like an ocean. I don't like this video at all.

Look the racists are in a straight line!! Easy to find!!

The worst decision my parents ever made was to remain in my childhood house their entire lives.

Happy birthday America read a fucking book for a change.

The good and bad news is I personally feel much older than 250 years.

Trending button sequence: Adam Sandler, Elon Musk, Force of Evil, Messi, Fox News. Reads like a bad toy store called Independence'R'Us that is completely empty except for a man in a giraffe costume waving hello or goodbye can't tell which one.

So many poets watching soccer on this platform I am a little surprised there are not AWP teams each year, a monetary tourney. They would never do that because poets would kick the shin guards off each other. Poets would get hurt, popular ones too, like hospital hurt. Separate book table tournament.

When you click the Elon Musk trending button it is just a series of posts about Canada and a random clip from The Omega Glory Star Trek episode where Kirk reads a bunch of cavemen the U.S. Constitution.

Taylor Swift gets married but Adam Sandler is trending? Math is not mathing.

If you fluctuate between writing for the living and writing for the dead the dead get real angry but the living cannot tell any difference.

If a firework blows up and nobody sees it, believe me it exists.

<---has not watched tv for seven months.

The audio version of The Bell Jar read by Maggie Gyllenhaal is not the way I read that book.

If poems are not experiments, get out of the lab. Run out of the lab.

I never believed Tom Cruise was in Vietnam in Born on the Fourth of July.

This cracker needs to start recycling soda bottles again, like right now.

I think if I heard a Lisa Loeb song in a pharmacy right now I would just start weeping openly.

I am going to write poems until I am struck dead ha ha eat it America.

In the real year 250 the Goths beat the shit out of the Romans.

Taught one of Kate Durbin's The Hills poems to the Teen Fellows last night and none of them knew what to say after we read it. I consider that a win.

Problem with teaching a night class is now I'm keyed up.

I know we work for Russia now but the stage is fucking Tetris too?

Well this is not good...

Can we have a Congressional probe that actually results in somebody going to jail please? All these probes. People just pointing and probing like Fire in the Sky doctors.

Speaking of paid manuscript consulting panels run by presses that also publish books, how many old people make all your edits then ask you to publish their books too, and you are like well, we do not publish books like yours but thanks for making the line edits, um, so long now? I bet it is a lot.

I am grateful Invisible Cities was never sent to a paid manuscript consulting panel.
