Writer (poetry & fiction). Doofus. Old man hooper. Metro Detroit. Posts are my own, obviously—that's why I said it & not my employer, parents, or dog.

Hey! Here, have a pinned thread of my writer stuff.

First, my debut poetry collection came out in June. I'm proud of it. Readers have said it's good, so that's cool. You can get it all the usual places—my favorite is asking an indie bookstore to order it for you via Ingram.

In other news, coffee grinders make terrible teachers and your ottoman makes a lousy tennis coach.

Has new jack swing ever had a comeback? If not, seems like it's overdue. Someone with influence get Teddy Riley on the horn.

The phrase that keeps floating up for me after watching the Bad Bunny performance:

“I, too, sing America” —Langston Hughes

yeah well Rage Against The Machine's lyrics are in english and apparently you can't understand those either

Well I guess it turns out I have never heard Kenneth Walker speak until now.

Highlight of the Super Bowl for my kids by far at this point is Adam Sandler in the crowd.

Anyway thanks to the 3 of you who aren't AI "ladies" searching for a lonely man or whatever. Sheesh there's a lot of them.
For whatever reason, I have a lot of new followers, at least 3 of whom might not be booty bots, so if you're wondering why I talk so much about writing and basketball, it's because that's kinda what I do lately. Basketball novel coming...someday?

We’re coming up on episode 8 of the @inthreepoems.bsky.social poetry podcast. If you haven’t listened yet, here’s a flashback to sixty seconds of episode 2 with @mitchnobis.bsky.social

Making the rounds this week among Christian progressives: new poem by Rob Hardy, poet laureate, Northfield, MN. Yes, the protests and all the work being done to throw sand in the gears and provide aid to those at home and being released from Whipple are a kind of liturgy — “work of the people.” ⚓️

At Whipple where expired dicks are being thrown at ICE vehicles and those believed to be agitators. The area has been a place of protest since thousands of federal agents arrived in the city.

The groupchat has expressed concern over this excellent Detroit Pistons team having only 1-2 top-notch nicknames. Beef Stew is of course great & Big Dawg for JD suffices, but we need more. Might need a very special episode of @oobh.bsky.social to address this.
The groupchat is aware that Boston and New York got better with trades, to which the groupchat says, this just means Kevin Heurter has to be GOOD Kevin Huerter, and to guarantee that, he needs to follow in Duncan Robinson's footsteps and grow the 'stache.

Was driving my kids to school and the first thing on the radio was reporting about Trump's video depicting the Obamas as apes and I think many people still don't fully appreciate what it means to have to raise Black children in a country where the president is so brazenly and consistently racist

DEEETROIT!
The Wright Museums Instagram page is HILARIOUS. Think The Office but it's the staff at a Museum for Black History. Better believe this is on my list of places to visit.
