enjoy the first bloom of little fruits’ spring season with the delightful “A Bigger Splash” by @chriscottom.bsky.social. www.littlefruitsmagazine.com/a-bigger-spl... #literarymagazine #prose #fiction

Every picture of ICE agents in airports is just this again

Narratively having Ever Given getting stuck in 2021 to set up Hormuz in 2026 is great foreshadowing. You want your audience to understand the basics of international shipping in a lower stakes context so you drop the real plot without a lot of saggy exposition about the minutiae of cargo logistics.

Dealing with the flu during this tumult, I’ve been rewatching TNG between coughing and bouts of reading the news. I love TNG but cannot stand how atrociously the crew treats the fantastic and wonderful Lwaxana Troi. DS9 is my favorite show for many reasons, but valuing her is one of them. #treksky

delve into some preserves with little fruit‘s first taste of the season: “Pears, Honey” by Susan Rose April. www.littlefruitsmagazine.com/pears-honey #litmag #writersky #literarymagazine #prose #creativenonfiction

Ilhan Omar is an American hero. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Crowd has dispersed, I'm back in my car. This video, to me, is emblematic of the evening. Minnesota cops protecting ICE while the agents lounge and look on, warm inside their hotel ICE commits state violence, and the state is by default on their side

Experts in authoritarianism and tyranny: "Fight them at every step. Do not give an inch or you will lose and they will kill you." Democratic Party leadership:

The Onion, 23 years ago. theonion.com/no-blood-for...

Behind the Bastards reminded me of my ex’s dad pretending the fake missile in his backyard was the nuke lost near tybee. He put a Gatorade cap on as a “red button” so people believed it would explode. A running joke was to slap the “button” and see if people flinched.

The right’s preferred gender ideology—one of male supremacy, women’s exclusion from dignity, citizenship, and vast spheres of public life, and an enforced heterosexuality of eroticized domination—is much more prescriptive, aggressive, and ubiquitously pushed than anything coming from trans people.

A perfect companion to the thanksgiving holiday, this piece considers our bodies, colonialism, and capitalism in one absolutely gorgeous package.

Savor our newest feature and ruminate on food, your body, and our place within the world: “Dispatch from a Soft Belly” by Shebana Coelho. #literarymagazine #nonfiction #creativenonfiction #prose #writersky #literary

Is…is the ranch from done and dusted a confederate legacy???? Rebel Blue ranch founded in the 1800s When the FMC’s family went west??? Romance readers please tell me if this is confederacy apologia so I know to yeet it.
