Was very pleased to get two lit acceptances today. Here's the first, "Swimming with My Father," already, in the online version of January House, a wonderful new international lit venue. The print version is scheduled for Spring 2027. Swimming With My Father januaryhouselit.com/2026/09/23/s...

Swimming With My Father
by Arya F. Jenkins Dressed in a two-piece red bathing suit with a frilly bottom at six, I waited for my Dad to come home from work every day so we could surf waves together. For him to sweep me up …

I write in all genres. The idea that one has to be limited to one road is absurd, in all areas of life.

#Tertulia is an excellent #venue for authors' #websites. I had to revamp summaries about my books, however, late in the game. I just did that. Funny how in retrospect, you get clearer about what you've written, among other things. aryafjenkins.com

Literary Veganism has the second fastest turnaround of any #literary venue I've experienced to date as they accepted and published my #flash #fiction, all in two days after my submitting. What a joy! www.litvegan.net/2026/07/fict...

He is an effing tard. I can't even speak coherently to that man's idiocy anymore. He has demoralized, defecated on, devastated and destroyed this country and is moving his toxic agenda across the globe. May nature take its course with him, rapidly and soon.

Yes, most of them are. Except for a few like MacKenzie Scott, who is an example of what a billionnaire could do to help the disadvantaged, no strings attached.

Bernie Sanders is 85, still shoots hoops (and makes them), and still fights relentlessly for the #welfare and #rights of people in America. The maggot in chief cannot even stand on his own and has yet to make a proper decision. Aren't you glad you voted for the latter, #Maga?

Well, it should be. And of course a man would say it's not a top #priority. Haven't the horrors imposed on the #Epstein victims and too many women and girls around the globe touched anyone in #Congress? Accountability, #accountability.

How many #Distractions before #America realizes the Mad King has sucked us all into the toxic tank of his fantasies? #Wars-distraction. Assass. attempts--distractions. Where are the #Epstein files?

U.S. Congress has voted to temp extend FISA, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which governs how intel agencies get info from U.S. telecom co.'s. Sec. 702 allows agencies like the FBI to mine ind.' info w/o a warrant. Dt would have full power of surveillance over anyone whenever. #FASCISM.

The most this creature has seen of war is his two little hands making like a gun. How many people must die, how many countries suffer, how many businesses collapse, how long will the entire globe of leaders with any sense or morality left tolerate this loser and his losing game?

I think they're effing with the ratings. What has led you to believe that anything we're seeing on TV or stemming from media--aside from the idiocy, irony, hypocrisy and predictable insanity of t--is true.

They are jumping ship in droves. They may have erroneous, ignorant ideas about both the Bible and JC, but they get a blasphemous lunatic meme when they see one. I guess it took bringing down Jesus Christ himself to get to them.

They are absolutely not capable of doing it. They are incompetent wolves, all of them, barking nonsense while egging on the demented tycoon that wants to rule the world. A moronic drunk fest in its toxic last stages.

Vance is the biggest turncoat since Benedict Arnold. Never has any politician ever shown more diverse shades of belief--none of them to be trusted--than this closet case on wheels.

for me impeachment isn't what we should be after. this president and most of his cabinet and staff should be prosecuted for corruption, fraud, war crimes, obstruction, and all the various crimes they have committed. i will only vote for a presidential candidate in 2028 who commits to this.

Anne Frank died of typhus she contracted in Bergen-Belsen Concentration Camp. Not the gas chambers. Dilley Concentration Camp currently has a measles outbreak. It's full of women and children. Abolish ICE. Dismantle DHS. End the Holocaust Republicans are beginning against immigrants.

One of these days, hopefully soon, the "understood" "he" that we all use and refer to daily in our posts and comments will go back to becoming the referent to someone truly good or holy instead of the basest representative of humanity.

You know the right is going to deny anything having to do with him in the hospital. He could pass away and they will be playing year old clips of him playing golf until two days pass and the entire world figures out what's happened because no one is waking up to trauma and a sudden peace has fallen.
