Today I'm releasing my new digital chapbook. It's a single poem I wrote over the course of 10 years. Free to view and to download. If you like it, a retweet would be appreciated. This is a 100% DIY effort. But even just a read would mean the world to me. https://t.co/tWJjfZElY6

We are on ULP strike. We gave @nytimes management months of notice of our strike deadline, we made ourselves available around the clock, but the company has decided that our members aren’t worth enough to agree to a fair contract and stop committing unfair labor practices.

[Desert Sun NewsGuild @TDSNewsGuild]

BREAKING: A supermajority of The Desert Sun NewsGuild has voted to authorize a ULP strike. The vote comes after @Gannett's refusal to offer consistent cost-of-living raises and health care protections that allow our members to sustainably live in the Coachella Valley.

@formermissNJ Very “Paris, Texas.”

I poetry's reason, cause and modus operandi. In case anyone was wondering who to blame.

[Nicholas Beren @BerenNicholas]

I would like it to be known that 14 years ago, I had a far better nomenclature to describe the form of fragmented lyric essays, which was “parastanzagraphs.” There are credible witnesses who can attest to this.

If this wasn’t probably a hokey spiritual reflection on the troubles of the Pandemic it would be the biggest fucking turn-on ever posted to a dating app.

@jedediahjoseph Thanks so much. Didn’t even know you’d seen it/was aware of it/had read it. Truly means a lot coming from someone with such discerning taste.

@Fender plz stop putting medium jumbo frets on your MIM models and plz watch your quality control. Seriously, $1k+ for a guitar that buzzes at multiple positions w/o crazy high action no matter how many times you have it set up! Who told you ppl like those frets?

[Nicholas Beren @BerenNicholas]

@formermissNJ Clearly, you can never kill anyone. You're dropping DNA like a poet dropping their STEM requirements.

@hfayefaye Tried to buy streaming tix to the E6 doc last night and this AM and both times couldn't do it. One time it even told me it was "sold out." Which is odd because how can a stream sell out? Anyhoo... That's a long way of asking, do you have a promo code?

[Nicholas Beren @BerenNicholas]

@EWRairport Thank you. It was in Terminal B.

[Nicholas Beren @BerenNicholas]

@EWRairport the gate area I arrived at last evening on Spirit flight 2308 from Austin had no soap in neither the men's room, nor the nearby single-use bathrooms. Clearly foaming hand sanitizer was put in the soap dispensers. That's disgusting. Put soap in your soap dispensers.

Two decades later, I finally found an Unwound album I like track for track. Congratulations to all the Unwound fans out there. https://t.co/AslpCRA84z

@formermissNJ @himinthefuture Nice to see you two spanning time.
