"Music has always been a tremendous part of my life, so it makes sense that plenty of songs show up throughout the collection." @silashouse.bsky.social shared a playlist for his poetry collection All These Ghosts at Largehearted Boy largeheartedboy.com/2025/09/13/s...

“Today’s poem is by one of my favorite Kentucky writers, a fellow dog person,” shares host @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social in today’s episode. Read “For You Who Have Loved Old Dogs" by @silashouse.bsky.social and our full episode transcript: bit.ly/4gHW4zT 📸: Carey Neal Gough 📖: Blair

. @jasonkylehoward.bsky.social has written something exquisitely beautiful about something horrible. Please read and share. @salon.com www.salon.com/2025/09/11/a...

The contrast is stark.

I abhor ALL violence. No one deserves to be shot for their opinions, no matter how reprehensible. I just wish we lived in a country where our elected GOP reps publicly mourned for murdered schoolchildren as passionately as they do for a person who devoted his life to division and vitriol.

Last day for this great deal. #BNPREORDER www.barnesandnoble.com/s/Dead%20man...

I recommend Lark Ascending by @silashouse.bsky.social - it’s really about love, I think.

In Issue No. 11 @silashouse.bsky.social writes about home as a place that both hurt him & loved him. A place he still loves with all his heart. How do we find common ground with those who raised us but who also voted against the dreams we have for our lives and this country? Silas points the way.

Lovely short KET segment about Kentucky's outgoing poet laureate, @silashouse.bsky.social youtu.be/Bwpr4OlBYds?...

Reading @silashouse.bsky.social book Southernmost. This line hit me hard as the daughter of an ev. preacher,"I reacted the way I'd been raised to:I called him an abomination. Being afraid of somebody who's different'll make an awful meanness come over you.I said lots of things I'm ashamed of now." 😢

Poem by @silashouse.bsky.social Title: John Prine #poetry #poem #JohnPrine #KYPoetLaureate

Kentuckians, learn about SB 89, a devastating bill that allows unprecedented pollution in our water. Then let your reps know you want them to uphold the governor’s veto. Please, this is our last chance to stop this bill. legislature.ky.gov/Pages/contac....

Urgent Action. Kentuckians: I am a private citizen begging you for help. Please give me sixty seconds to explain why. The Ky General Assembly has passed a bill that endangers us all by allowing unregulated pollution into our water supply. Luckily, our governor has vetoed SB 89… 1/3

Seniors came to JD Vance's event to demand the Trump Administration stop cutting Social Security. JD's response: "Don't you all have jobs?"

Alina Habbard posted: NOTHING CAN STOP THIS MAN FROM FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY. David Simon had a succinct 2-word response: “Bone spurs.”

If SB 89 passes Kentucky will be the only state that has no water regulations. Kentuckians, I beg you to research this bill & contact your rep. Water is our greatest natural resource & should be protected at all costs. The message board is: 1-800-372-7181 or apps.legislature.ky.gov/findyourlegi...
