ICYMI - this week’s Rumpus Original Fiction by @kateisabroad is an absolute stunner. An emotional powerhouse that I can’t stop thinking about. A perfect Sunday read!
Reupping this 2020 article by law professor @JoanCWilliams about organizing and building power to codify abortion rights in state legislatures. If it can be done in Ireland it can be done in Red States. #RoeVsWade

@fklein907 Thanks for the shout-out, Frances. Still extremely happy to have published 'Meditations on the Body' with @Ghostbirdpress. Peter Vandenberg is putting out some great chapbooks and this reminds me that I need to buy some of the newer ones I don't yet have!
How many people have lost the plot due to Twitter & their Instalives? Interesting time to be part of the largest psych experiment in human history. "8 Signs of Histrionic Personality Disorder" | Psychology Today https://t.co/9Ivj6ubbYn

@mongibeddu@vjoshuaadams@aliciaawwright Apex of the M is where I first encountered Pam Rehm's work (@floodeditions), which was (and is) important to me. It's definitely been more than 20 years! Randomly found it as a college freshman in that magazine shop on 6th & 11th (??) in Manhattan. https://t.co/jjKCQaHQCy
