If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment. This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.

idk guys when i see a lot of similar headlines insisting that editors & authors are all already embracing AI, i don't assume these things are true. i assume there are a lot of very rich people with an unpopular product pushing a particular narrative in my industry!

I'm not waiting till National Poetry month to start posting delicious poems. Especially when they cross over to my other favorite genre: steamy lit. You're welcome! Go eat an apple and fall from grace. 🍎🔥❤️ #poetry #writersky #romancelandia

My favorite part of AWP? Seeing the C-dale MFA crew from back in the day. That's Indiana poet laureate Curtis Crisler, who is just as sweet as he was in grad school. #AWP26 #SIUC #WritingCommunity

Baltimore AWP. The AI resistance was in the house. ❤️✍️📚 #EduSky #NoAI

Friday 3/6 (7pm), at this historic church, 5 minutes from AWP. Free event, wine & beer. Featuring Clare Banks, Jan Beatty, Armen Davoudian, Barbara Hamby, David Kirby, Campbell McGrath, Bradley Paul, Alexis Sears, Dean Smith, Chris Watkins & David Yezzi. #AWP #AWP26 #SmartishPace

Number of times I evoked Jacqueline Susann's Valley of the Dolls on our panel yesterday: 1. Number of times John Waters evoked Jacqueline Susann's Valley of the Dolls in his keynote last night: 2. Guess who's signing books at the Steamy Lit table on Saturday? @nikkipaynebooks.bsky.social #AWP26

AWP bound folx: Hope to see you in Baltimore! I'll be haunting the bookfair, conspiring with the AI resistance, & buying out the Steamy Lit table. Romance at AWP! John Waters! Catch our panel on Thursday at 10:35AM: A Psalm for the Wild Teacher: Building Genre Fiction Workshops That Inspire #AWP26

This is one of the most reasoned & persuasive arguments for not allowing LLMs anywhere near reading & writing intensive classrooms. We can 100% choose not to outsource our reading & writing labor to a bot, and model for our students why they should do the same. #EduSky www.tue.nl/en/our-unive...

If you want to connect at AWP Baltimore over romance craft or AI refusal, my panel is Thursday morning (A Psalm for the Wild Teacher). You can also catch me at the Slippery Elm table at the bookfair, where I'll have copies of the resistance zine LOOMING. #AWP2026 #amquerying #CraftBeforeBots #NoAI

This is so Toledo. 😂❄️🍆

Jeffrey Epstein did not stop raping children after his 2008 conviction. Jeffrey Epstein did not stop facilitating the rape of children after his 2008 conviction. He kept doing it. That is the context of people treating him as a normal person after his conviction. /1 www.cnn.com/2020/01/15/u...

Peter Attia is in the Epstein files and I read a bunch of the emails so you don’t have to. I can’t imagine taking the first call or email. But longevity is about proximity to wealth and power. substack.com/@vajenda/not...

When silicon valley's incel bro culture meets the longevity manosphere quackery. Of course these pervs admired a known pedo. They all dream of hacking immorality on Mars with AGI, raw milk, & teenaged concubines. Everyone in Epstein's orbit knew what he was and deserve the consequences.

This is the Toledo Zoo's new baby giraffe. I can't even with that hair. His name is EUGENE. I ❤️ him. @toledozoo.bsky.social

From the petition: "Recent polling shows that CSU students share these concerns, with the majority of students expressing that they are worried about the negative impacts of generative AI on human creativity & the environment." LLMs are not ed tech tools. #EduSky actionnetwork.org/petitions/ca...

In health news, Dr. Brain Worms endorses whole milk instead of vaccines. Dr. Oz agrees, but advises adding raspberry keytones (or butter) because that's how Paleo Jesus ©️ drank his milk.* *NB: Paleo Jesus ©️ is white. Just like whole milk and Santa. #IsThisTheRealLife #IsThisJustFantasy #AI=MAGA

As covered by @politico.com #MorningTech, we've written to the PM to call on him to end the use of X for Government communications in light of the appalling generation of sexualised images of women and girls via the platform's #Grok chatbot. Read more here⬇️ www.onlinesafetyact.net/analysis/let...

Chuck Wendig's response to Underwood & SFWA is an f-bomb balm to my writer's soul. Writing about AI resistance in academia can feel charged with phoney civility. We need to stop pretending that LLM implementation is reasonable & inevitable. #EduSky #publishing #AI terribleminds.com/ramble/2025/...

The Head of Preparedness holds the collective memories of all safety & ethics folks who quit Federation Broligarchy. Funds for a new sleeve if your longevity protocol was a bust and you're aging like some kind of plebe will be deducted from your first paycheck. techcrunch.com/2025/12/28/o...

An excellent piece by @sonjadrimmer.bsky.social and Christopher Nygren, and I thank the authors for linking our open letter in their call for collective action against AI in education. If you center compassion in your classrooms, you need to read this. #EduSky www.publicbooks.org/four-frictio...

I’m sorry, but it is disgraceful to be an academic who uses this technology to conduct research. It should be prohibited in all of our scholarly institutions, including universities and journals.

Students deserve a voice and an understanding of the "whys" of teachers' opposition to unethical technology. We need to understand their whys, too. This article bridges many audiences, and I think it could be a primer to kick off that dialogue. #EduSky www.currentaffairs.org/news/ai-is-d...

Krampus wants you to love my cozy-but-fierce paranormal romance. Don't make me get witchy. #amquerying #writingcommunity #writesky #paranormalromance

Happy last week of classes! Remind me not to teach overload in the same semester as my search for a literary agent. My hair may be shiny AF, but inside my witchy soul is unraveling. #amquerying #writingprof #writingcommunity #poet #romancelandia #witches #solstice #redheadedmagic

Stop calling poetry a "soft" skill, mofos. Ain't nothing soft about it.

If ya'll could send me a grading elf, I'd be much obliged. Oh. Bourbon, too. ❄️ #amquerying #writingcommunity #edits #writinglife #romanceauthor #queryingwriter #WhoWillGradeAllThesePapers

Querying perseverance tip #1777: Don't let all the rejection force you to conclude that "no one likes" your fiction. That's doubt talking. No one likes your poetry, either. Now go make fauxpirational memes! #amquerying

Dud wellness goals? Replace them with FERAL. ©️ Example: "I am kind" becomes "I am feral." Dump toxic gratitude & ask: what witchtastic balm* will set my feral heart aflame? *NB: FERAL is not an actual balm, but if it were, it would be free of sulfites & tech bros. #amquerying #cottagecore #feral

All I want for Christmas is a literary agent, but in the meantime, I'm working on my side hustle as a Toast Influencer. ©️ I test all recipes and do not use bots. I will never ask you for financial information unless I really need a bougie facial. #amquerying
