I recently started trying to keep plants alive and I didn't realize that eventually I'd have to punish the plants by hacking off the parts that were growing too well. What kind of sick hobby is this

Around this time every year, I share a list of ways to support Native people. From supporting Indigenous people seeking abortion care to defending Native voting rights and keeping Native families together, here are some causes worth supporting. 🧵

This is how you become a writer: just pick one of the things that is deeply wrong with you. Make it a character. Now send it on a self-help journey or try to kill it. Now call it a book.

I checked with an editor at the NYT Magazine this week and they just… don’t publish poems anymore.
People underestimated the impact of Boyer’s refusal at the time but whew. Powerful refusal.

Anne Boyer has resigned as the poetry editor of the New York Times magazine: “Because our status quo is self-expression, sometimes all artists have left is to refuse. So I refuse.”

Take it from a librarian, the smallest things count! Website traffic, social media likes, newsletter sign-ups - this is vital data, evidence we use to prove that we are needed. And of course, every item you borrow, every resource you use, every program you drop in on ACTIVELY helps us.
Public libraries remain one of the best things ever about this country. Support your local libraries, friends.
This went great! VERY engaged audience!
I love doing library events.

Scavengers Reign is one of the most original and beautiful shows I’ve watched in a long time, I hope we’ll get a season 2!!
Preview of "Scavengers Reign" Season 2. Unfortunately, this new season has not yet been greenlighted. So the creators of the show (Joe Bennett & Charles Huettner) and Green Street studio produced this concept trailer in-house.
