thinking about back in november when many self-described leftists & even more libs (to this day largely unaffected by trump) were smugly talking down to & wishing ill on immigrants & other marginalized people who voted republican while zohran & his team were doing this instead
Why did so many working class New Yorkers vote for Donald Trump last week — and even more not vote at all? I went to Hillside Ave in Queens and Fordham Rd in the Bronx to find out.

Highly recommended for the Edouard Leve and Joe Brainard sort of reader. Also an autoportrait with an audiobook read by the author.

The situation in the Gaza Strip is increasingly worrying and painful. I renew my heartfelt appeal to allow the entry of dignified humanitarian aid and to bring an end to the hostilities, whose heart-rending price is borne by children, the elderly, and the sick.

Kathryn Scanlan wrote about Alice Notley - one of the great poets of our times ! - last year https://t.co/maXcFKVPyr

In Being Reflected Upon, a memoir in verse, the poet moves through the moments of her life with an almost cosmic sense of knowingness.

goodbye alice notley — hard to know what to even say. she was one of our greatest living poets, but even this feels like a cliche and understated with respect to her spirit and work. love you forever
