"As long as my loved ones remain safe, life moves forward and our spirit endures, no matter how fiercely the occupation seeks to erase us. They can try to steal our joy, but they can never take away our happy memories — or our will to live and be free."

925 billionaires are why we don’t have affordable housing, universal healthcare, child care & education. They’re the reason there’s so much suffering & poverty. America is poised to have the world’s first trillionaire in Elon Musk… a man whose decision to cancel USAID has already killed 600,000.

My dad responded to a video of me using Exedrin migraine with one word, "skullduggery" and let me say, this man is punny but I was unaware of his skills.

When we had society wide covid mitigations, we eliminated an entire strain of flu. Now we’re in the “you do you” era and seeing an aggressive and early start to flu season. Three children in Ottawa have died. Wear a mask, ideally an N95. Get your vaccines. Clean the air. Stay home when sick:

This show is so ridiculous and yet actually heartfelt and hilarious. Also, the sexual tension between these two 👀

Taped a copy of this new poem by @leticiaasu.bsky.social inside my monthly pill organizer. A hug for my future self. 🥰 This poetry collection is phenomenal & would make a wonderful gift for the disabled & chronically ill folks of #BookSky. Just requested copies at my library for a book club!

Wow: Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named for Holocaust survivor Raphael Lemkin, who coined term "genocide") calls Clinton's remarks "genocide denial." "Young people in the US are not stupid or gullible. They simply reject genocide – something the Secretary might consider doing as well."

Planning events for 2026, and I need recommendations. We'll be staying in Columbus, OH, Louisville KY and Nashville in January and February. Any bookstores or community orgs I should reach out to for readings or events?

Anyone have any crow lore recommendations for me?

So grateful to have such wonderful friends and writers in my life like @utarcher.bsky.social!

It never ceases to astonish me that so many liberals have this idea in their head that ICE was some honorable law enforcement agency that didn't violate human rights before trump entered office when theyve literally been doing it since the bush administration

I hate that in my calculations of where we decide to live next, access to water and distance from new polluting data centers is on the list of criteria.

The pandemic didn’t end. The bigots in charge know that an unmitigated pandemic causes disproportionate death & disability of the groups they hate: trans folks, poor folks, immigrants, disabled folks, BIPOC communities, &c. Don’t let them turn you into a weapon. Mask up. Give/get mask mutual aid:

"What do you think is the horniest tree?" is a question I asked my husband earlier.

Looking back at my journals from my preteen years and realizing I was junk journaling all along 🙃

In honor of Native American Heritage Month, here are some books I am reading or have on my TBR: Gathering Moss by Robin Wall Kimmerer, The Sky Was Once a Dark Blanket by Kinsale Drake, Every Drop is a Man’s Nightmare by Megan Kamalei Kakimoto and The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters.

The struggle over history, from Wounded Knee to Thanksgiving to ICE detentions, is not a debate about the past. It is a struggle over who defines America and whose humanity matters. A nation that cannot face its own history cannot repair its present. truthout.org/articles/the...

Excited to celebrate the release of my poetry chapbook, Offerings to a Tumbled Temple, with virtual reading on Thursday, December 4th at 7pm EST hosted by @purpleinkpress.bsky.social My good friends and wonderful writers Cloud Cardona and Lindsey Carmichael will be reading with me as well!

Made a small but yummy meal in the RV for two (and a sweet potato treat for Tajin).

What your patronage means to an indie press: If you have a Tenebrous shelf, you are our patron saint. Your emails will always be answered. If you have the entire collection? I will answer the phone as your alibi and/or former employer. You were with me the whole time & you did an *amazing* job.

Exposing my husband to the bizarro experience that is Babes in Toyland. Keanu's character being accused of grand cookie larceny is a highlight.
