Just finished the Sarah Wynn Williams expose of Zuckerberg, Sandberg and Facebook, 'Careless People' - which Meta has successfully stopped her promoting. It's simultaneously jaw-dropping and exactly what you expect. Highly recommend. www.panmacmillan.com/authors/sara...

So my phone just put this on the lock screen. Is this a poetry prompt, life advice, or what?

Happy Valentine's Day to the most romantic line I've ever written: "Loving you is like holding ice to the back of my burning neck / like holding hands with a group of women in the public gallery when a rapist gets a guilty verdict" 😀 ♥️ #IYKYK

Can we please stop repeating 'proposed resettling' in reports and call it what it is: a proposal for ethnic cleansing.

Little treat for the poets today on the NYT Games app :)

I was reflecting on this callout, and thinking how much more it feels like a GENUINE invitation for marginalised writers to submit because it starts with that initial acknowledgement on the topic. 'We encourage x, y and z to submit' often feels a bit box-ticky, this one doesn't. Submit by tomorrow!

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
