RIP, Chuck Mangione. You made my teenage years in a house where I couldn’t listen to rock music much more endurable.

This is the third come-on I’ve received in the past week from folks using generative AI to try to sell me PR services. What is most offensive is that the technology used to generate this praise was built on the theft of the very text under discussion. Writers, are you getting emails like this too?

Just a reminder that I will be participating this evening in an online protest reading with some terrific (and angry) (and hopeful) poets. It’s on Zoom tonight at 6 pm Pacific, 9 pm Eastern US time. Hope you’ll tune in! www.tinyurl.com/100-days-of-...

Score today from the laundry room! I know it’s four editions and 32 years out of date, but I’m still pretty excited.

Surprise, surprise. Look who owns one of the few Swastitrucks I’ve seen in NYC.

(This lot is next to 259 W 134th St and the gate is wide open. I sure hope no one tags it!)
