This morning and afternoon’s books. Mary Oliver’s Devotions are psalms for the myriad earth we are part of; Speculative Starry Corpse (volume two of three) for anyone who loves Lovecraftian experience. Spending more time offline to mend my mind. But miss my Bluesky friends. #booksky #poetrysky

Today’s poetry by Keith Waldrop, my favorite professor. The noon hillside for which I’m grateful. Morning reading is my refuge of sanity. #poetrysky #poetsky #booksky #breadandroses

To recap: Trump said Zohran isn’t a jihadist and is going to do a good job, even as Zohran still maintained Trump is a fascist.

Extra points for the butcher's MacBeth handwashing gestures:
'Will all great Neptune’s ocean wash this blood
Clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather
The multitudinous seas incarnadine
Making the green one red.'
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

This morning’s #booksky Civil War by @barbarafwalter.com is excellent, very readable insight into today’s America. Definitely recommend! Andrea Gibson’s poetry is fiery and tender. She was a dynamic reader. Her death this year was a loss 1975-2025. (Her readings are available on YT and elsewhere.)

I just watched the whole video, and not a single reporter stood up for her. Everyone just pivoted to asking questions on other topics.

This is shameful.
When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

History has taught us that this is precisely when Donald Trump is most dangerous — and when Republicans turn to voter suppression, election subversion and worse. With the 2026 midterm elections less than a year away, Trump is already plotting his next moves.

Here’s what we all need to prepare for.
