Newly arrived from Salt and out next month, pictured here with a rowdy plant. Includes my story "The Ice Tigs" - an M.R. James tribute featuring academic precarity, cold water, and a character with Raynaud's. Well, why not. 🌿🧊😱

Remember: the students did it first - over a year ago - and were punished for it.
Over a hundred diplomats from more than 50 countries staged a mass walkout as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu entered the United Nations General Assembly hall, crowding into aisles to file out through the room’s various exits. https://t.co/UuHosO7RWb
