Here’s the thing: this is probably the last one of these for a while. So, if you like the lineup and want to support the cause, tomorrow’s reading is you best bet for a while. 👍

Ok so I didn't exactly throw my back out but it feels like it could get thrown out if I'm not careful, which means, don't sit, don't lay down, don't move fast, but don't stop moving and don't twist but don't stay perfectly still...
wish me luck...I blew my nose during all this and it was not fun...

There isn't a single problem "solved" by edtech that couldn't be fixed with smaller classes led by well-paid teachers given real academic freedom

Um we pack flights like sardines make everyone travel with carryon bc fees are ridiculous and we have no leg room. Im not excusing bags in the top, but I can see why people are trying to save leg/foot space.

Yep! I'm trying for a renewed push in 2026. I have one reading at my local bookstore booked for January (with Cal Freeman & others, so come by Metro Detroit!) and an April event pending. Just need time to ask some others. 🤞🏼

Why Bother?
Because right now, there is
someone
out there with
a wound
in the exact shape

ICYMI: “No one knew what it meant when the numbers starting appearing around town: an errant 2 tacked to the bulletin board at the neighborhood pool, a random 7 spray painted in the middle school pick-up lane.
The rumors started immediately.”
