Post from Amanda Gorman’s Instagram that says 

amandascgorman
Minneapolis, Minnesota
For Renee Nicole Good
Killed by ICE. on January 7, 2026
by Amanda Gorman
They say she is no more, That there her absence roars, Blood-blown like a rose.
Iced wheels flinched & froze.
Now, bare riot of candles, Dark fury of flowers, Pure howling of hymns.
If for us she arose,
Somewhere, in the pitched deep of our grief, Crouches our power,
The howl where we begin,
Straining upon the edge of the crooked crater Of the worst of what we've been.
Change is only possible, & all the greater, When the labour
& bitter anger of our neighbors
Is moved by the love
* better angels of our nature.

Amanda Gorman wrote this poem for Renee Good and that’s it for me tonight.

I wish I was writing then! Instead I was practicing Immigration Law. Those 4 years wrung me out. So happy that I can escape this time with you all.

Ending the year with my story about Antarctica (fiction) published in the amazing #Grim&Gilded. Special thanks to #Smokelong where all my stories hatch and grow, but especially because someone suggested this publication. (Sadly I dont remember who).

The flip side of cancel is that just like anyone can speak (within the limits of constitutional protection) one can also cancel with that same freedom. Btw: I don't even know who Thrall is

This is a terrifying development from India regarding the legendary writer Arundhati Roy -- one of the Modi regime's fiercest critics
