I haven't been in academia for 14 years, but I never requested to be removed from several of the mailing lists and you better believe I still read them. I'm still proud of your awards. I still read some of the papers. You guys are doing cool work.

It's my kindergartener's birthday today and I asked what he wanted to do tonight (his party is on another day) and he said nothing really, but could I hide his presents like Easter eggs? Bro? Abso-fucking-lutely. That is whimsical as hell.

Cheering people on is the easiest thing in the world.

My fellow poets/writers are not competition. You're my peers and my people.

And it's a privilege to be out here, making cool shit at the same time.

I want the government to give me things that make my life easier. I want these things "for free" and I don't care if people who "don't deserve them" get them too.

I hope Tamsyn Muir knows that every once in a while I think “ouch oof my bones” and have a little giggle.
