just reminding everyone that my reputation as a bog witch stems from when i met the oldcroghan man, went summarily mad, and the spagnum moss refused to let me go. this poem is from back in 2019-ish.

Her wounds leak blood prayers to place, cry out to gods we shall never truly know the names of. She has crossed the mire’s cold threshold into a territory of low oxygen and high acidity. Her supplications answered with transformation. - Emily C. Banting

@tomsbrown.bsky.social She falls into her bog bed. Peat-pillowed. Moss-blanketed. Cradled by its brown waters. A protection of humic acids, tannins. Heather honey on the tongue of her bitter dreams.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

wow you'd think this would have been bigger news huh weird that i keep getting told by the grownups that Labour under Starmer gets the roughest possible ride by our media
🚨Keir Starmer named in UN report on complicity with Israel's Gaza genocide
UK planes are also alleged to have spied on Gaza for reasons 'beyond' official claims of looking for hostages

If anyone lost a bag of books from LRB Bookshop on the Metropolitan Line between Baker St- Watford, I handed it to a cleaner when the train terminated at Watford tube station. And if you have far more followers than me, please share this status. LRB bookshop is not cheap!

As a biologist, It really is a great analogy. Also trees. It's like saying, "There are trees and grass, you have to be one or the other." Ok... where is the line that defines "is a tree?" what about bush-like grasses? Palm trees? NON-tree palms? What about horsetails and their tree-like ancestors?
