I'm excited to be part of this!! If you or someone you love will be at AWP, then leave AWP and come to this!

To love, and bear; to hope, till Hope creates From its own wreck the thing it contemplates. —Percy Shelley

I frew up

In many cities, few to no stars are visible at night. Our starlessness erects one further barrier between us and the nonhuman world, and removes the historically lived nightly reminder that we are a small part of something much, much larger than ourselves. I truly believe this causes psychic damage

It's Thanksgiving and I'm feeling generous so here's Busta Rhymes and the TMNT

Tomorrow! Also consider donating cash if you’re able! Nearest ATM Santander at 125 Broadway 👖🥰💵

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies. Trump just won’t release it. 440,000 Minnesotans - and millions more Americans - will pay the price.

So my 5th (!) book of poetry will be published by Slope Editions in Feb/Mar 2026. It was chosen for publication by Ariana Reines, who's a hero of mine. It's called *Want for Nothing* and I'm SO excited for people to read it!!

One policy solution to Young Men we should be considering is Universal Basic Electric Guitar (UBEG). I'm not joking, by the way. Kids of any gender should get a low-cost starter kit for some hobby of their choosing once they turn 13. A camera, paints, a cheap sampler, etc.

A new kind of heist game. South African game studio announces Relooted, a game all about stealing stolen cultural artifacts from museums and bringing them back home to Africa. Get the details here:

Get your alive ass over to a poetry reading at 7pm tonight at Antidote Books in Brattleboro VT with Lesle Lewis and Ben Pease and me. #poetry #reading

I made a gallery of almost all of the poems I wrote at Somerville Open Studios this year. It was a joy to spend a weekend writing. The clunkers were outnumbered by poems people were actually happy to receive, which was nice! jonwoodward.net/openstudios2... #poetry #typewriter #somervilleopenstudios

Spreading misinformation

I'll be writing poems on my typewriter for anyone who wants one this weekend at Central Street Studios (57 Central Street, Somerville MA), which is part of Somerville Open Studios. Stop by and I'll write you something! #poetry #poem #typewriter #openstudios #somervilleopenstudios

My copy of “I’m I’m” (my new poetry chapbook) arrived today.

I have an aim assist feature working now. Kind of beautiful! #gamedev #godot #gravity

Yeah I don't know what this is or what it's going to be. Pretty fun if gravity's not just "down," though

i just realized decorator crabs would be a perfect inspiration for a weird playable character. you can stick things into yourself from points along your journey. a pebble from the town you were born in. a piece of seaglass from a place you met a cute lizard person. some antlers you find in a field.

Video game idea, quick mockup. There's a two-player competitive game lurking in here. The "sun" (and center of gravity) relocates when you collide with it. I didn't expect to end up in a stable orbit... #games #videogames #perihelion #gamedev

A moth doth this, anon

A new chapbook of my poetry came out yesterday -- can I tell you about it? theeconomypress.com/I-M-I-M #poetry #museums #taxonomy #wittgenstein #language #incompleteness #love

dreamt a political candidate claimed, as if it were something to be proud of, that he never dreamed, not once, and when a journalist called him out for being out of touch because dreaming is such a universal experience, he shrugged and said he had no interest in “getting nintendoed by the moon"

I am going to make more of a concerted effort to make more of a noise here

Say hi if you see this (if you want)
