When Uncle Travis’s brand new poetry collection, WHAT’S LEFT IS TENDER, arrives, his kitty nephews celebrate. As for me, I’ll be teaching from this in my health humanities class this fall! @travisclau.bsky.social

Wild to me that this is out of print! Just got my hands on a copy off of eBay. It contains an introductory essay by Joe LeSueur.

Blue book that is titled selected plays by Frank O’Hara, published by Full Court Press.

Is it really a protest in Wisconsin if there isn’t at least one sign that says “fuck Ron Johnson”?

Proudly casting my vote for #SusanCrawford and against Musk-Trump here in Wisconsin.

Hi #RunningPunks, I completed a 10-miler along icy Lake Michigan today. Heard a punk band called Memo PST on KEXP that really got me excited. 😆🤘🏻

It just seems like the perfect night—frigid and dark here in Milwaukee—for a rye manhattan + some early Silver Jews.

My turntable setup. On the left is the record player and on the right is the Silver Jews “Starlite Walker” album cover. Also visible is my manhattan in a martini glass.

Just ran my fastest 10k of the year thanks to Brian Foss’s Sonic Reducer show on KEXP. Fave songs on the set by Dead Pioneers & Body Farm w/ a track called “Trans Day of Vengeance.” #RunningPunks

My Apple Watch screen shows my total time as 54:06, total distance as 6.27 miles, pace as 8’37” per mile.

Béla and Liam wish all of you a wonderful short week. Take time for naps is their counsel.

Two cats curled up together: a tuxedo is little spoon, and a giant orange tabby is the big spoon with his chin resting on the tuxedo’s back. They rest on a blue heating pad.

My dude is on here now! Alan is an epidemiologist who researches HPV & anal cancer and is developing self-screening strategies for queer and trans men. He’s also a helluva cook w/ excellent taste in music. Give him a follow @nyitray.bsky.social

S/o to all of our furry ones helping us through yet another political nightmare.

Only one way to end this day of teaching.

The record player is open and an album is spinning. It is Belle & Sebastian’s “If You’re Feeling Sinister.” The album cover is propped up. It is red and has a picture of a pensive woman’s face on it.

IDK, Horace is still on my mind. And now that I have his entire correspondence in my office, I especially can’t help it! Top row.

This is my office bookshelf but what I’m really hoping to pour out is the top row where 48 volumes of Horace Walpole’s letters are stacked side by side in blue and white covers from Yale UP.

Hi, everybody. Checking things out after hiatus. My heart is shattered but I’m putting the pieces back together. Even managed a smile here. Let’s connect. ✊🏻

Here I am in the high desert, above Palm Springs. I’m wearing a white hat and white t-shirt. I’ve got glasses and a beard. White and middle-aged.

Hi, lovely ppl. I’m reconnecting today. If I’ve got to start planning for the semester (ugh) it may as well be at my neighborhood park beer garden.

This is a picture of my point of view. Visible in the foreground is a blue, yellow, and orange cup that has beer in it. I’m holding it. In the background, picnic tables, grass, gray sky, and a white mobile trailer with beer taps on it.
