Make the bloated polticians shut up and sit down with real work and stop thinking a party with no soul is your only mouthpiece.

What alarms me, stepping into this new era, is that Americans aren’t in the habit of caring for anyone but themselves, individually, and so we are ill-prepared to do the work that must be done. We are spiritually and emotionally deficient, if the last year hadn’t proven it.

Nous sommes heureux de vous annoncer que notre association devient officiellement la « Société des ami•e•s d’Hélène Bessette ». Nous conservons notre appellation d’origine : Gang du Roman Poétique, en éternel hommage à notre Romancière, car, le saviez-vous ? 🧵⤵️

I just can't believe I'm spending my thirties making sure my friends don't die in childbirth.

I have been asked on two different networks and by two different male hosts today whether abortion rights are as important to women as the economy. I can't say it more clearly: reproductive freedom is economic freedom. They are intrinsically intwined, as every woman knows.

J'étais au rassemblement en soutien à #AhouDaryaei, étudiante iranienne battue et arrêtée par la «police des mœurs» et pour la libération des femmes emprisonnées en Iran.

Thank you, @Dalai_Mama_ , for the incredible experience of hearing your work and meeting your artistic universe last night. Your movement through research and poem-making as a continuation of the vast legacy of Black ecologies and literary expressions is completely inspiring.

Tonight, with @Dalai_Mama_. 19h30, Rerenga Wines in the 10th. 🪩🖤
We are excited to welcome Joy Priest (@Dalai_Mama_) to the Mnemosynes stage on Thursday, October 31st at 19h30 at Rerenga Wines (3 rue de la Fidélité). Hope you can turn out, Paris!
I wonder what we’re doing suggesting people “think of it as buying me a coffee” instead of saying “PAY WRITERS.”

That is the question that is being wept through the tears of Antigone. It is more than a question, for a question doesn't cry, but it is perhaps the origin of all questions. And it is the question of the foreigner -- of the foreign woman.

“Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Thong” is a poem I published in August via Spiritual Material: Musings from My Second-Hand, Parisian Wardrobe. Here is a recording of it: youtube.com/watch?v=n0jHm7K8…
