Mondays are for odes, but last night I had trouble finding gratitude to fill a page. It's okay not to be okay. #ode #poetry

"Loving you is not separate from the struggle for liberation. It is liberation itself. I fight for you, and for every Palestinian child whose life deserves safety, tenderness and freedom. I hope one day you will stand tall knowing your father was not absent out of apathy, but out of conviction."

1) USPS did not lose $3.3b. It provided a service that cost $3.3b. The Pentagon loses you money, however, every time it accidentally yeets a fighter jet off the deck of a carrier

#Fascists are bad. Being #anti-fascist is good. Being loudly anti-fascist is best. I'm proud to have three #poems featured in the first volume of the #Antifa Lit Journal, which you can pre-order anywhere books are sold. Or, contribute to the Kickstarter for Volume 2 (🔗 ⤵️) to get Vol. 1 for free!

Being scary on purpose seems like a really lonely way to live.

I need words poured into me the way an Italian adds salt to a pot of water before bringing it to a boil

Sometimes when I'm feeling down I reread the comments people have left on my fanfictions and wow does it help.

Me: sends a message to @schumer.senate.gov to ensure his opposition to the SAVE Act Chuck's reply: "Check out these voting rights bills I helped pass! Aren't I the best? Don't forget to vote for me again in the midterms!" Your time in office is fast approaching its end, my dude.

Every time I hit this level of exhaustion I'm so grateful to not also have kids.

In addition to his heroic actions these past 20+ hours (and counting!), the powerhouse that is @booker.senate.gov just took a moment during his filibuster to acknowledge that the #BuffaloBills are the only NFL team in NYS 🤙 Thank you for your incredible advocacy and patriotism today, Senator.

When you figure out the phrase you want to write the day's #acrostic #poem from and then realize you've trapped yourself into starting a line with X 🙃

I'm both wonderfully energized by the potential of my #D&D campaign and completely overwhelmed by the planning required ahead of each session.

Last night someone defaulted to referring to me using they/them pronouns and it made my heart so happy 🥰 (the fact that they were complimenting my outfit didn't hurt, either)

Plain clothes. No identification. Unmarked vehicles. An unreadable photo of a "warrant" shown on a phone. This is not legal. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

I didn't take pictures of the #BloodMoon eclipse last night, but I did write a #poem.

Creation is not passive, it is powerful. If you're a #poet, #author, or #artist, and you are against #fascism in all its forms, consider adding your voice and vision to this international anthology through @notapipe.bsky.social. Submission deadline is March 15.

@kirstengillibrand.bsky.social looking forward to your statement in defense of the First Amendment right to free speech of your unconstitutionally detained constituent. #FreeMahmoudKhalil

This is the weakest sauce response to a clear violation of our Constitution. Shame on you @schumer.senate.gov for feeding into the bullshit narrative that being anti-Israeli occupation/genocide and pro-Palestinian liberation equates to being antisemitic.

Okay honestly the irony of my pen giving out as I force myself to write an ode to #resilience is a whole damn mood. Time to frantically tear the house apart until I find an ink that matches because I have ✨️compulsive tendancies✨️
