ok, ok, I'll stop soon -- but I love it when readings converge, and @knarpoet.bsky.social posted Alice Fulton's "Cascade Experiment" elsewhere today: it speaks to this novel.

...Because believing a thing’s true
can bring about that truth,
...let my glance be passional
toward the universe and you.

So I did eventually re-locate my copy of _Notes From A Regicide_: a book it is very appropriate to lose and then find again. Such a gorgeous text, so much about revision in the sense of “seeing again” and also deciding to alter or change — multidisciplinary, tactile, sad, joyful, beautiful.

I fell asleep reading this book last night, and so far can’t find my copy today, which reinforces my sense that this is the kind of novel you dream up/of.*

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

can't believe H&R block has forced me to utter this cursed phrase

We don’t say ‘post HIV’ or ‘post Ebola’, so why are people saying ‘post COVID’? COVID is running rampant due to apathy, ignorance and complacency on the part of governments, public health and healthcare systems

Suggesting the world is “post COVID” contributes to an unwitting shift in research priorities

big thx to @johannesg.bsky.social & the eds — this whole issue is 🔥 w/ work from Jared Harvey, Daniel Borzutzky, Raul Zurita, the late Inger Christensen, & plenty more

& this one is the closing poem from In Finitude, my current book project; it prob wants to be both before & after gender & capitalism & all the punishments thereof

this one is something of a sprawling homage to Beth Povinelli & her work on the Eastman Kodak Company & its toxic legacy

Proud of the new issue of Notre Dame Review, my first as poetry editor. A lot of great writing in this issue. One thing I'm particularly proud of is the first translation of some of the outtakes (published posthumously) of Inger Christensen's masterpiece, Alphabet, incl the legendary "O series".

words feel useless in this moment, but silence is unacceptable. let's raise our voices and take principled action for those 400+ Palestinians that the entity massacred last night and for every single person murdered because their very existence was a threat to the settler colonial zionist project

NO OTHER LAND is a truly great film made by a joint Israeli-Palestinian team.It won the Oscar & the BAFTA for best doc this year among other awards worldwide.The Jewish community in Miami & US needs to speak up.Right now.We are become visibly morally bankrupt.

Almost $250,000 raised in 1 day for Mahmoud. Ofc he deserves support but this disproves the idea that ppl do not have enough money to donate to Palestinians in Gaza, who are being starved thru a brutal siege. If you gave to Mahmoud plz give to them:
