A small thing I've started doing that has had a tremendous positive effect on my mental health is listening to music instead of podcasts

Around this time every year, I share a list of ways to support Native people. From supporting Indigenous people seeking abortion care to defending Native voting rights and keeping Native families together, here are some causes worth supporting. 🧵

The most Pittsburgh of Pittsburgh days. This kind of morning. Tornado warning by nightfall.

love a good “O” in a poem, little fearless halo, the line’s volume knob turned all the way up, the stanza’s submarine window through which we glimpse an ocean of thought and feeling

Louise Glück.

MATINS
You want to know how I spend my time?
I walk the front lawn, pretending to be weeding. You ought to know I'm never weeding, on my knees, pulling clumps of clover from the flower beds: in fact I'm looking for courage, for some evidence my life will change, though it takes forever, checking each clump for the symbolic
leaf, and soon the summer is ending, already the leaves turning, always the sick trees going first, the dying turning
brilliant yellow, while a few dark birds perform their curfew of music. You want to see my hands?
As empty now as at the first note.
Or was the point always to continue without a sign?

Weirdly, *every time* they do a “just give people enough resources to live” experiment it works to reduce misery and save governments money but they gotta keep studying it forever I guess.

I always wake up after an intense night of doing submissions ravenous to read some actual good poems. Reading Audre Lorde this morning...this snippet is from the close of her poem "Touring."

A selection of text from the poem "Touring" by Audre Lorde:

"I leave poems behind me
dropping them like dark seeds that
I will never harvest
that I will never mourn
If they are destroyed
they pay for a gift
I have not accepted.

Coming in and out of cities
untouched by their magic
I think without feeling
this is what men do
who try for some connection
and fail
and leave
five dollars on the table."

Just finished "The Call of Paradise" by @majda.bsky.social out from Two Sylvias. Really love the musical references in this book (as in this snippet from "Under the Moon") twosylviaspress.com/the-call-of-...

Small section of the poem "Under the Moon" by Majda Gama, which begins

"My twenties were trance-based. I worked on my moontan
& listened to Underworld, to the Rabbit in the Moon."

I am so obsessed with Taylor Byas' "I Done Clicked My Heels Three Times." This book is so thoughtfully constructed, it's nuts. Little snippet from "mother" that I've been rereading this morning. softskull.com/books/i-done...

Snippet from Taylor Byas' poem "mother" which starts...

"The first time motherfucker
felt like anything

it was my father calling my
mother the name."
