Been rereading the SPQR series by John Maddox Roberts. Amazingly apt to our time plus being cracking good murder mysteries with excellent historical accuracy. And the audio book reader is perfect.

Are you even in museum work if you don't casually bake historic recipes like Ancient Roman Libum on your lunch breaks? All tested for Saturnalia

I mailed in my vote for Harris several days ago and my anxiety level is still way too high. I just want a time, a long time, to pass where I never see a photo of trump ever again. I need to find something to do that is not triggering.

Audibile + some new publisher are up to something bad. For years I had all the Terry Pratchett Discworld books and suddenly they have disappeared from my library. I can't even repurchase some as they do not turn up on my searches. Publisher is Penguin with new readers. some good some awful.

And now it's time to rally around Harris, and I don't want to hear one more fucking white guy tell me "But the racists won't vote for her", because NO SHIT SHERLOCK THEY WERE ALREADY VOTING FOR TRUMP.

My poem “Reading Catullus on Metro-North” came out 6 months ago in Milk Press from the Poetry Society of New York. Blue Sky has grown a lot since I last shared it! More to come from my Catullus 85 project but this first poem will always be special to me. poetrysocietyny.org/matthew-nisi...
