Nobody in Texas was worried until Ted Cruz got on the plane

A poem for our times, by Hayley DeRoche

NICE COMPLIMENTS TO GIVE WRITERS • you are incredibly clever • your work impacted my soul • i'm still thinking about your book • i will read everything you ever write • honestly you are a monster • i put your book in the time-out corner • im crying why are you like this

If you read a book this year, im proud of you 🫶🏽 reading and literacy has become an act of rebellion in such an illiterate world

I want to read but I also want to write but I also want to bake and I also need a shower so I guess I’ll go to bed.

I love this!

We need more human beings.

As someone with a Masters in International Development, I can tell you that famines have never been about a lack of food. They are always about distribution. And it is precisely this corruption that pushed me to leave the field. #Gaza

The world is a watery shadow of ocean-love,
That sea of light cannot be contained
In single human beings, so leave fragments,
and be the mountain

Grief
Hits
Not like a wave
You see coming
More like
A punch to the gut
You lose your breath
For a moment, or two,
Or an infinite amount of little moments
Strung together
On a loose string

And then
You pull yourself
Together

And move on with your day

I’m in a reading slump. I want something light and fluffy heading into summer. Any recommendations?
