"He explained that the fountain was about transformation. Water is motion. Life is motion. The flap of the wing, the angel, the bird. The carrying of each from one world to the next."

loved this haunting flash by @bybethhahn.bsky.social.

“It wasn’t the thing she was supposed to die of, but an accident. While it was happening, it felt like a cartoon.”

The roulette issue of @ettereview.bsky.social is out! I'm in love with ette's design for this issue and Beth's illustration for "Landlines." Huge thanks to Nora and Beth for including my work.

Shooting at Evergreen High School in Colorado leaves 2 students hurt; suspect also injured Two students were wounded in a shooting at Evergreen High School in the Colorado foothills. The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office says the suspect is also in the hospital with injuries.

Enough is enough.

We cannot continue to be a nation that meets gun violence with inaction.

This is a public health crisis and we must end this cycle of trauma once and for all.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

Note: COVID hasn’t changed that much recently, so while they will be updating the vaccine in fall to match the latest variants, the current “old” vaccine should still provide good protection (and better than no vaccine if access is restricted).

The story is that Emily Dickinson was this odd little lady who never left her house but recently I was in Amherst and saw her house and wow so nice—big w eaves & whatnot. Even from the outside you know it’s nice to be alone in. She was busy.
