One of our ANMLY comrades told me they can't continue reading because they lost their housing. If the work at ANMLY has ever meant anything to you, or if the work that I have ever done in any capacity has ever meant anything to you, please consider helping them stay safe. gofund.me/0e09177d

Poetry saves our (debatable) souls but healthcare saves lives (not debatable). Please take action to save lives here in our current hellscape.

My little contribution to @thepinkpoetryclub.bsky.social. Social posting is something I feel is sorely needed right now. It’s exciting to see a venue pop up that brings writers together in a way they can easily uplift each other. Ways that aren’t tied to traditional expectations of publication.

Hey there, LGBTQ Midwesterners. It's a pretty scary time to live in the Midwest, especially if you're in a red state (like me). We have to help each other right now, bc we know our gov'mnt sure as shit ain't. Drop mutual aid & ed links below. I'm in MO, so sharing what I know, too.

Point of delicious clarification: we give priority to Midwestern LGBTQIA voices. However, non-Midwestern and/or cishetero voices are also welcome!

Happy snow day for some of the Midwest! Thanks to technology, we're out here working remote instead of playing in the snow and eating potato bacon soup. You gorgeous poets should send us some poems between emails <3 💗✍️♣️ 🏳️‍⚧️🌈 #Midwest #poetry #poets #queer #trans #lgbtqia+

The hardest part about doing a lil IG+Bsky lit journal so far, is when we get absolutely gorgeous works that just won't fit into the format. If you got a rejection bc of that, just know, I got into canva and TRIED for whole mornings/afternoons to make it work before I sent out that rejection. 💔

Gorgeous poets, what music are you feeding your soul today? The awkward EIC is listening to RM and *gasp* Our Lady Chappell of Roan (while writing skeets in third person), and reading your gorgeous words. (subs always open, link in bio)
