👨‍👩‍👧 VOL. 3: FAMILY is OUT NOW. 👨‍👩‍👧 People have killed in the name of family; its ‘sanctity’ is a motivator for far right violence across the world. Even when we break away, we remake found families. So—what IS the family? What’s so good about it? readtower.itch.io/family

As an Irish magazine, it's been hard to find our pride today as our leader lunches with Genocide Joe while asylum seekers' belongings are destroyed by Dublin city council. We encourage our international readers to learn what's happening in Dublin this St. Patrick's Day. (1/2)

(2/2) We're so excited by Irish publishing and proud of our Irish contributors, who we'll highlight another time. But today, please consider donating to the IPO asylum seekers. Fáilte roimh theifigh, saoirse don Phalaistín. ☘️🍉 thejournal.ie/mount-street-a… gofundme.com/f/funds-to-supp…
O'Gorman denies asylum seekers were moved from Mount Street because of St Patrick's Day

O'Gorman denies asylum seekers were moved from Mount Street because of St Patrick's Day

The men were taken in busses and taxis to Crooksling, near Saggart yesterday morning but some have returned.

We're absolutely thrilled to see Amitha Knight's "My Mother, The Exoskeleton" on the BNW shortlist—a well-earned testament to Amitha's beautiful, dread inducing speculative poem on childbirth and motherhood. And 👏 to fellow VOL. 1: END contributor @CKuriata for his nomination!

The BRAVE NEW WEIRD shortlist is here! Congratulations to everyone who submitted—over 1000 entrants. The quality was unsurprisingly astounding. A note: this nomination will not increase your social standing. It may in fact lower it🖤☠️ Final ToC coming when we’re good & ready.

TV is a great comfort in bad times, so it can be uncomfortable facing our own dependence on media when a show ends. We might even convince ourselves that TV is activism, and do free advertising for HBO, to avoid that reality. Read "Finished." in full: readtower.itch.io/end

VOL. 3: FAMILY is OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS. Why is the family so corruptible? Why do we keep recreating it? Why is Silicon Valley obsessed with fertility and eugenics? Why do I keep seeing stepsisters stuck in washing machines? Art and writing. JAN 10-31. readtower.net/submissions
