Me on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

And then I see some cool clouds and I go “Ohhh cool clouds” and for a moment forgot about the existential dread.

It's more important than ever to support your public library. #Libraries are community. They are about opening minds and opening doors. Get a library card, and check out books. Download Libby. Libraries need the stats for funding, which is now uncertain. And thank your librarian.

We love you.

Several years ago, when things were bad, as they are now, I made a comic about art and community in the face of hate. Today feels like a time to reshare. 1/5

I've talked to a few folks this morning who were talking about stopping work on their creative projects. Because it's "not important anymore."

I don't know who needs to hear this, but DON'T DO THAT.

We win by living our lives as loudly and truly as we can. That includes your "silly" art project.

From an email to my grads:

This isn’t my 1st rodeo, but it might be yours — & I wish like hell it wasn’t. But one of the reasons I’m a literary historian is that the work reminds me I'm one of a long, long line of those who have imagined better, & more importantly, worked for better, come what may.
