Hi ho Silver, here come the Lone Ranger
He's riding on down, to rescue me.
If this resignation leaves a hole in the news the size of poetry, then that is the true shape of the present.

Anne Boyer has resigned as the poetry editor of the New York Times magazine: “Because our status quo is self-expression, sometimes all artists have left is to refuse. So I refuse.”

My attempts at a Vilnius thread haven't really worked. It looks broken and continuing it isn't as convenient as the Other Place.
It's possible I haven't figured out how to do it properly but I think it's more likely the app doesn't fully support it yet.
Nevertheless I'll persist!

Also, ladies, we have been drinking our stout all wrong it transpires, turns out we have to lick the foam off our fingers like a porn movie.
DO NOT TAG HIM OR THE BRAND IN.

Howdy folks. I'm Sean, The Pin King of Finglas.
I make enamel pins with Irish themes and the occasional poster.
Despite the deadly domain name (literally), I'm just a one-man operation, working from my spare room.
If you've any questions, ask away!

And not one of them a real estate novelist.
Just an observation, but…
There are more men named Paul on this year’s Booker Prize shortlist than there are women or people of colour.

I never saw a man who looked
With such a wistful eye
Upon that little tent of blue
Which prisoners call the sky,
And at every drifting cloud that went
With sails of silver by.
