Published today: My article on author Jonathan Evison and his warm-hearted new novel THE HEART OF WINTER, which was inspired by childhood tragedies in his family. Thank you, Post Alley!
“The Love Story I wished you would have had”: Jonathan Evison’s “The Heart of Winter”
In 1976, Jonathan Evison was eight years old, newly relocated to Bainbridge Island, and a complete mess. That was the year that Evison’s father brought the family to Washington, ostensibly for a Na…

RIP U.S. Department of Education. Education Secretary Linda McMahon introduced herself to department employees with an email calling on them to join her in a “historic final mission” to downsize the agency and shift control to the states.

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address:

Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

MY LITTLE GOLDEN BOOK ABOUT PRIDE comes out today and I'm feeling extremely Ralph Wiggum "I'm in danger" about it. It's beautiful though and I love it no matter what they say

We cannot give Trump more power than he has.

As Trump gives his joint address to Congress tonight, heed @brandonwolf.bsky.social's advice: Limit the doom-scrolling, take care of you and your loved ones, and keep fighting back.

One hour before Trump arrived. He can bluster all he wants -- he is not a king.

More thoughts. More de-stressing. Time to stress eat the last two Girl Scout cookies. Not two boxes. (I wish!) Just two lonely cookies.

Hmmm… just a thought for today. No reason.

Stress eating my way through five bulgogi-mushroom lettuce wraps probably isn’t the worst way to handle a completely TOXIC day! 🤷🏻‍♀️

The past several days have proven without a shadow of a doubt that Project 2025 is real and underway.

And those who warned America about it were right.

If you live in Pierce County, WA, you have $5 PER WEEK of FREE printing/copying at any library, renews every single week.
It's .10 black and white, and .20 color.
They can print 11x17 sizes too.
I print posters, worksheets for my Care Client, contracts and invoices.

I’m officially OLD.
I was just referred to a specialist …who went to Kindergarten with my oldest daughter! Not sure how I feel about this.
Last time I saw them, they were learning to tie their shoes!
(Yes, I’m sure they’re *very* good at their job, it’s not that. But… dang, am I that old?)

When *8* of your library holds come available at once… 👀
I mean… I’m a fast reader but… Thank goodness for the option of extending some of those holds!!

Lots of people are about to be really mad that price of eggs goes up but they can’t get a 2nd job because they can’t afford childcare and when they do finally get the eggs they get E Coli because there’s no FDA but can’t go to the doctor because they got kicked off their health plan. #FAFO

Saw this message on a tee shirt today.
Might be less hassle to wear it at family gatherings than my SUPER CONTROVERSIAL teeny-tiny 1/4-inch “Vote Blue” lapel pin… 💙🩵💙
