indianapolis you have my whole heart today ❤️ thank you @schizophrenicreads.bsky.social for giving me the chance to talk at length about what’s happening in DC at my launch party, and thank you indianapolitans for singing such a rousing Solidarity Forever with me about it

I get constant comments on my posts about people telling me they walk around bookstores with screenshots of my videos, so I thought this would be a helpful substitute for your indie book shop day tomorrow

Sure, maybe I should go to AWP next year because I’m doing an MFA and am hoping to sell my proposal later this year, but the most motivating thing for me in going to Baltimore is the almost non-existent but not impossible chance of running into these legends

My partner went to bed a half hour before we heard the tornado sirens go off.

Indianapolis is having an indie book crawl this weekend. I went to my local shop this morning and bought Empathy Exams for someone to claim. A few people liked that so donated some money for me to buy some of my favorite books for people to go in and claim. Here’s the stack:

I hate Elon. He ruined my favorite holiday of the year… watching the Oscars while scrolling Twitter. That site is dead and we’re living the corpse of it on all the other places of the internet

It’s helped my nonfiction reading a ton too. Love that book!

Obviously there’s no money in the humanities but I want there to be an English Lit version of nonfiction (that isn’t writing) so bad. Media studies, I guess? Maybe that’s what’s next for me?

Loved our chat! Thanks so much for driving some boring highways to hang out in Indy for a little while!

Favorite thing I’ve read so far this year. This chapter is on mental illness and the fear of losing your mind and gothic representations of that horror, specifically with Haunting of Hill House (show and book)

it’s definitely easier to destroy shit than build something but i don’t think i’ll ever stop thinking about how we were told biden couldn’t do anything at all, ever, while elon musk and donald trump run around like rats gnawing on cables stopping the governments functionality completely

Do you ever think about how in about 15 years there will be a major study and headlines about how sites like FanDuel and DraftKings led to about 100,000 suicides of young men
