For Lent, I am giving up making excuses for not writing

Looking for a book for the times? Might I suggest @cadwellturnbull.bsky.social's No Gods, No Monsters? It's far from light-hearted, but it's heavy on community care, organizing, and portraying policing systems realistically. (Plus it's just straight up fantastic fantasy.)

Flash fiction acceptance! 🌪👧👧👧👧👧👧👧

Can't wait to share this poem with you all!

Issue 10 has its bones! Our exquisite corpse will be affixed with short fiction from: @pbarmby.bsky.social Rachel Esser @crystalkoo.bsky.social @bookended-islal.bsky.social Anne Liberton @parkeriswriting.bsky.social Scott Payne Julia Raye

This episode has been a nightmare for my city and state, but I hope people realize it’s also a profound defeat and political catastrophe for Trump and DHS, who are slinking away having accomplished nothing. Minneapolis simply wouldn’t bend to them and they lost

I am going to finish these novel revisions. I am going to query this book. It is going to be accepted and published and sold in bookstores.

Awards season is in full swing, and I have some speculative poems that I'd love if you considered when making your nominations. Really, though, I'd just love it if you read and enjoyed them 💜

For those following the Red Ogre Review saga, he has made good on his promise to change his licensing terms...by doubling down. On left: the original (awful) license. On right: the new license, mostly the same as the old license, but with some additions that I've circled in red.

This is outside my favorite coffee shop. ICE hasn't let up here at all.

Once again, the weekly spiral is hitting: I want to throw myself completely into writing, but capitalism.

Looking to read poetry? I have recommendations!

Back-to-back poetry acceptance days 🎉🎉 🌳👽🌳 (This eases the 7 rejections that have come in the past week.)

Reminder: In light of Bad Bunny's Superbowl performance spotlighting Latino culture, here's a hefty list of Latino speculative fiction authors I curated if anyone wants to take a gander and read some phenomenal work. Much love to all! go.bsky.app/6BAmgpi

Every Winter Olympics I think of Surya Bonaly. I hope she is thriving.

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

The world is on fire, and the algorithm just tossed me a horoscope.

It feels weird to say "Buy my book" given everything, but I stand by the dedication on this collection's first page: "To the women of Saint Paul, who deserve endless praise." The resistance here is strong, and I'm so proud of my community working every hour of every day to protect our neighbors.

If anyone is wondering where I'm at mentally, the soundtrack of my days has been almost exclusively Rage Against the Machine and the three released songs from Charlie xcx's Wuthering Heights.

We are seeking submissions of articles for Interstellar Flight Magazine that revolve around the topic of queerness, disability, and/or speculative poetry as a complement to our new poetry series, Infinite Branches: www.interstellarflig...

@katmabu.bsky.social I would like to highly recommend MN author @jordanrhirsch.bsky.social's collection of sci-fi/fantasy short stories that take place in her (currently besieged) state.

If you see this, post a character that starts with A.

Time to call your reps again. 5 calls hasn't got a script up yet, but I'm sure they will soon. Or write your own. Either way, pick up that phone and start hassling.

Tonight, most (if not all) the Zipps bar locations throughout Maricopa were raided by federal agents. Community members arrived to legally observe and agents pepper sprayed the crowd least one location. Workers were taken.

👀 Judge Schlitz, the chief federal judge in Minnesota, has ordered the head of ICE, Todd Lyons, to appeal personally in court Friday and threatened him with contempt for the agency’s repeated violation of court orders. “The court’s patience is at an end.” storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: Minnesota's top federal judge says ICE has been violating court orders repeatedly — detaining noncitizens or rushing them to Texas despite judges' commands. He wants ICE's director to answer for it "personally," and could level contempt sanctions. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

So glad to see the Senate Dems taking a stand against there being too few camera angles of my neighbors being shot.

The violence and chaos from the federal government that has the Twin Cities under siege is an effort, it seems, to trigger the legal ability to neutralize the Constitution nationally. The only thing holding it off is Minnesotans adamantly refusing to step over the line.

For real I am so fucking sick of this conversation Y'all wanna talk about Minnesotan organizing? It's 90% on signal right now. It's fucking working. Everyone wants to pretend that nothing works so they have an excuse for doing nothing of consequence but posting on fuckin Bluesky

Minnesota ICE-watchers did this. By relentlessly documenting ICE/BP/DHS abuses—taking on personal risk to do so—they’ve gotten the horrors into more information streams. Got more people to pay attention, undermined Trump regime lies, and shifted the stances of some Democratic officeholders.

Protesters chanting "We're not cold, we're not afraid, Minne[apolis/sota] taught us to be brave" in Boston tonight outside Government Center station.

Genuinely the only thing keeping me going—but it really is keeping me going—is how good it is to see people link arms and push for this to end. I cannot stop thinking about how much love people can have for their neighbors, and how much work and money is poured into breaking that love apart.

And hey, it really does matter to me that some of you are checking in with your Minnesota friends personally/individually. Knowing that there is support is part of fueling the resistance. Thank you. Love you. Stay strong. Fuck ICE.

There are verified reports that several witnesses of this morning's murder have been taken by ICE to the federal building where their operating hub is.

Yesterday, Minneapolis gave us hope. That’s what they’re trying to kill: the will of a people who are willing to fight them.

If a state governor activates the state's National Guard to protect civilians, wouldn't that prevent the feds from taking control of them? ICE is getting away with murder, Walz. The constant chorus is always "do something." We're so beyond any words at this point.

Turn off auto play videos on all your social medias. Just trust me on this. You don't need to see this.

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.
