I am cooking up guest editor ideas for 2025-2026. I think that is how I would like to exist (in the strict sense of mastheads): a regular reader-level contributor to organizations I believe in, and regular spots elsewhere to create themed collections & cultivate community

I know his cabinet pics are horrible people, but stating that they are mentally ill just stigmatizes those of us with mental illness even more. You don’t have to be mentally ill to be a bad person. Some people are just bad.

Each cabinet pick is a new fresh hell so here’s a poem from @agnimagazine.bsky.social 100 (!) about birds’ nests made from detritus, extreme weather, + swimming at summer camp. Remember ‘buddy check’? Let’s re-implement buddy check for the next few years maybe for, like, everything? #ecopoetry
