Alice Notley passed away Monday night in Paris, where I'm writing from. This will come as a shock to many, but she was battling a number of maladies in recent months, and things had gotten difficult rapidly. Her work is out there. Please feel free to spread the word.

The Nashville police released a report on the 2023 Covenant shooter and there's a lot to say. It's incredible how much false information has been used to create a story about this shooter and this event that is just *not true.*
