Gotten an influx of new Bluesky followers on here since the dead bird site is tanking so here’s an introduction post:

Hi! I’m Hannah! I have 2 poetry chapbooks and write a lot about sad dad jew stuff, internet culture, and the failures of institutional poetry/presses. Also I love cats.
gotta say I’m really excited about our panel at AWP in March and you should be too :)

I’ve been so out of the loop (for better or worse) with writing and writers so it’ll be great to see some folks again ❤️

James and I finally watched Glass Onion tonight and man it feels even weirder knowing that the insert Elon Musk character’s fake company logo even looks like what X is now, knowing that Twitter is dead.

Honestly Janelle Monae should just be in every movie???? Ever???

Expect to see a lot of this classic Onion headline, from 23 years ago, over the coming weeks.

RIP Melville, you would’ve loved school cafeteria strawberry milk cartons
The milk is very sweet and rich; it has been tasted by man; it might do well with strawberries

gotta say nothing depresses you quite like mandated reporter training for my day job, especially considering that the current US government just copes for pedophiles and abusive weirdos

I feel this way about a lot of people

The year is 2028. A liberal elder millennial has taken control of the government. Everyone rolls their eyes at the new "department of good government oversight" (doggo). Until the purges begin
