Heads up!
Venerable magazine Harper's Bazaar is running its short story contest again, with the winner receiving "the chance" of publication in the magazine. Just one catch: per the wording of the guidelines, _just by entering_ you transfer copyright ownership of your story to Harper's parent, Hearst. 1/3

The White House press secretary just said she "can't guarantee" that ICE won't be around polling locations in November.

You were a fantastic tutorial partner, Catherine!! 😆 I so enjoyed our conversation! There’s nothing better than an intellectual and emotional deep dive into English poetry!
How brilliant would it be to be in one of @drlauravarnam.bsky.social's tutorials? Last night I kind of got to find out (in a good way!) when we were in conversation about #AHistoryOfEnglandIn25Poems for the @univcollegeoxford.bsky.social Shakespeare Society. What a joy! Lovely to see friends too.
