In the midst of my recovery, received these beautiful contributors copies of my poetry chapbook From the Yew from @the-ethelzine.bsky.social. I’m inordinately proud of this little book and hope you can pick up a copy from the publisher.

we're supposed to be the party that embraces the fact that we're a diverse and chaotic nation, stop test-polling yourself to generic national oatmeal!!!

the city of los angeles burned in january in part because of a man who couldn’t stop generating images of burning cities on ChatGPT, and then after he lit the fire he asked if the fire he started was his fault

Want to crowd fund the mass production of ‘Kristi stop fucking the country like you’re fucking Corey’ signs for wide distribution

One weird trick for both things

Picture here is from 1992. LA riots. Ive seen this called bad news judgment. In any real journalism outfit this is more like a firing offense. I basically say such things. Beyond belief.

Thank you!
