Abolish the university

I like a lot of things poems can be but in some basic way this is what I want from them most, the kind of attention to notice nests built "Of pliant twigs and the softest moss and grasses" and clarity of language to put that into a latticework of being however briefly alive

One thing I’d be nice if Schatz and others acknowledged is that even judging their hard right turn on immigration in Spring 2024 on its own terms it failed miserably. In July when Harris took over Trump led on “immigration” by 9pts, by election day he led 13pts. At best it, electorally, did nothing

But why I'll definitely be rereading it again soon! 500th episode BATHTACULAR! Well, not really, but I did think it was worth mentioning. (Boy do I have a lot of free time!) youtu.be/lnbWH8ACRqc

My story, “The Seventh Expression of the Robot General,” appears in the recent issue of SF World in China.

Gonna just paste in a bunch of tweets from right wing media and influencers who were stating that Charlie Kirk's assassin was proven to be a transgender person. This was a lie, and beyond irresponsible. It's obviously targeting trans people to stir up hate and violence against them. 1. Andy Ngo

the leftish podcastersphere triangulation on this has been disgusting to watch: there was almost no evidence for an entire day, and the right wing pushed a trans shooter narrative. Our beloved podcasters then triangulated based off far those right talking points. Truly pathetic. Sad!

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hala. Hala is only 16 years old and is a very popular singer in Gaza (you should check her out www.instagram.com/hala_e_omar?...). Her and her family are being forced to flee Gaza City and live in tents in the South. They need help ❤️

I just learned that Charlie kirk was also a podcaster. Its caused me to have a rd 2 Damascus moment; regarding my colleague's brutal murder by a yet unidentified extremist shooter. We podcasters must come together to oppose the political violence we condone every episode

The funniest thing the martin beck novels do imo is when the authors describe the police going thru some exhaustive set of procedures and then end that paragraph with 'and nothing happened'
