Coffee and pencils, today let’s think with
@caitmckinney.bsky.social who writes: “.. there is delight, learning, and even repair available through the act of looking back at how Pee-wee used to look forward, at play and in relation with all his beautiful machines.”

"If this resignation leaves a hole in the news the size of poetry, then that is the true shape of the present."
Anne Boyer has resigned as the poetry editor of the New York Times magazine: “Because our status quo is self-expression, sometimes all artists have left is to refuse. So I refuse.”

Completing the marketing “author questionnaire” for a book is by far the most shame-inducing task involved in this job, other than the job market. “Who will be interested in this book?” NO ONE? My friends…? Please stop looking at me.

Anna Anthropy has put Dys4ia back online. For those who don't know, Dys4ia is considered critical to the indie games canon of the 2010s, getting a level of recognition, and notoriety for the maker, that ultimately caused her to try & erase it from history. Dev notes here:
