Just finished a fun interview — 20 questions— with my publisher @runningwildllc.bsky.social! I overthink and worry about sounding silly, but Lisa and the fun questions put me at ease. I will figure out the whole down loading from YouTube soon. Stay tuned! #CNF #autobiography #poetry #memoir

Check out my new #creativenonfiction piece out with @pinchjournal.bsky.social!

It’s about giving birth, “the intimacy of living by another’s blood,” to quote Managing Editor Emily Binkley, chimera and microchimerism and postpartum amenorrhea, and giving and receiving blood. 🙏🏽🩸✨

Never assume for the future that any politician will keep to any values that may have aligned with yours in the past.

Politicians do not run on consistency or liberation. They run on profit.

If they align, we leverage it, but we remain vigilant about all positions open to shifting at any moment.

Costco responded to shareholders requesting that it withdraw from DEI policies. The response was direct and to the point: Costco says, "Our board has considered this proposal and believes that our commitment to an enterprise rooted in respect & inclusion is appropriate & necessary."
