Went record and book shopping (four indie shops) today in Grand Rapids,
and bought some movies and buttons at the local horror store there (Alive Again). The sun shined. We walked around in the slush and loved the sound of all the snow finally melting. The sun. It was glorious.

We will find a way soon!

This makes me sad! I wanted to see you. But of course, take care of you first!

Abolish ICE!

Memphis is under a federal task force occupation that includes DEA, CBP, ICE, National Guard, state troopers, and (I’m not joking) IRS agents (IRS jackets kidnapping people). No national news.

I want a whole movie about the teen girls in the “Syzygy” episode of the X-Files.

I wish that would have came to fruition! Was an amazing collaboration that would have been!

I’m reading about Rosemary’s Baby and abortion laws.

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

“AI is plagiarism.”

I'm so excited to be a part of this panel at AWP!

Their racism has always been loud, obvious, violent, and deadly.

It is really infuriating to see how misogyny really does unite men across the sociopolitical spectrum. And, in so far as the Epstein files go, they sort women into two categories: fuckable or irrelevant. When they near a hint of accountability they complain about not being able to make women prey.

Lanie loved this essay. She sent it to me and mom to read. And we loved it too!

One of my cats was staring out one the windows tonight. I peeked out to see what had his attention— a small deer in the snow staring back at him. It was magical.

Snowing. Freezing rain starts at 3. Wondering if campus will close earlier. But it’s Michigan, so likely not.

Doctors and nurses verify that ICE is lying about how the injuries were sustained. ICE intimidates the nurses inside the hospital. Brutality. No reforming this.

This is a country that cannot imagine the abolition of youth prisons and jails.

I’m bundled up in a gray coat and gloves holding an Abolish Ice sign. Snow is on the ground.
