Want to tell the public what US government workers actually do, vs. the propaganda spewed by DOGE? This incredible website, "We the Builders," is asking for first-person testimonials from government workers about their actual jobs, and how they make the government work. www.wethebuilders.org

TELL YOUR STORIES! Post on social media, write to local newspapers, talk on the radio. We are real people who do real good for the country we love. If you’ve been fired, don’t go quietly. If you haven’t, hold the line as long as you can. #fedstrong #holdtheline www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

🦊🤠 hello!

My book (utppublishing.com/doi/book/10....) launches Wednesday! Rather than stressing,* I'm making a big thread of work by people who show up in my acknowledgments--because I'm SO grateful to all of them, but mostly because they write weird, wonderful, genius books 💜 (*still definitely stressing)

A reminder that our MFA application deadline is DEC 15. Come and join our awesome, small cohort for 3 years of fully funded work with lots of opportunities for interdisciplinary work in an amazing desert city. english.arizona.edu/mfa-creative...
