@BrinkerhoffPoem Saw this right after reading your poem and thought you’d like it @loveswimming . Dark days here, but not giving up

[Clare Hall-Craggs @loveswimming]

We had word of dolphins
Up from Amble
As we journeyed north.
Skeletons of trees against the sky
Leafless fingers reaching out.
Salons of curlews, scurrying oyster catchers
Pausing to look out to sea
Down at shells.
Striding on
Through the gloaming
Into the dark to Craster.

@lastpositivist What man? Didn’t you just write a thoughtful and humane and enlightening lil essay about truth? Yup. It was you. Loved that.

Giuliani is still tough to beat for worst but he didn't hit his peak weirdness til after he left office

[benedickraikes @benedickraikes]

@alomshaha Yes you are, Alom. I have followed you for a while, and seen lots of your work, so I’m confident that I’m right about this

[benedickraikes @benedickraikes]

@DavidEdmonds100 @PrincetonUPress Agreed! Loved @Raymodraco ‘Duty of Genius’, and am just rereading your ‘The Murder of Professor Schlick’. Couldn’t recommend them too strongly. Will have to get your new one!

[benedickraikes @benedickraikes]

@mvbulutay @page_eco Agreed.

this is not remotely close to being one of nature’s most unnerving birds. Be serious

@alomshaha I made it. I scoffed it. A proper marvelous medicine. Thanks!

@lastpositivist I like Milton’s ‘On his Blindness’ on this kind of dispair.
