NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

#IStandWithZelenskyy

I don't really know why I'm even trying to publish poetry at all right now. People can say "poetry will change the world" but we've been writing steady for thousands of years and this is some terrible shit we're in. So--???

Kicking out Zelensky is...I don't even have the words. Vile.

Bluesky seems to involve a ton of folks reposting clearly fraudulent fundraisers?

I'm sad to say it seems I will never run out of reasons to use this meme

Oh great.

Does anyone have a LEGIT reason to believe the 2/5 protests are a trap created to impose martial law? Because to me it seems like fear and paranoia. There are risks in this and all action, of course. But what's the alternative? Docility? Shitposting? What's a BETTER FUCKING PLAN?

I’m getting word from academics to back up and download anything you might have on a work server or work computer.

Especially anyone who is NHS, NEA, NIH funded and doing work in any DEI field - queer, BLM - any federal grant funding

Milwaukee/Marquette--icy campus bolo

Folks, I am not the Jessica Walsh who designs things (?). I'm a poet & professor, which means I'm weird & have big feelings. Feel free to keep following me! Things are crazy these days and building community is wonderful. But if you're looking for the designer JW, I ain't it. I'm the generic one. xo

Look out, Elgin/Fox Valley--icy conditions

So are NEA grants frozen, too? If so, I'm afraid they won't be back...

Saw the musical, saw the movie. I'm just not seeing what everyone loves about Wicked. I'm broken, I think 😂

Deserves all the attention!

I've read this and it's 🔥!

Call for subs! Come get it, my good bitches.
