A somber literary scene unfolds as a young poet gazes out at a river view, their thoughts consumed by creative turmoil and introspection.

I'm #listening to #redrising and no shade to the #literary craft of the series but I really #dislike the #roman #trope. It shows a lack of imagination in my #opinion. And I feel the same way about #suneater.

when late winter returns
home your inmate
in your nightgown
with your candle kneel
beside your bed and shiver
after you go to bed
after you go to sleep
when the horizon's become a purse
that today's early summer's
returned her sun to
when the warm breath
of today's spring's been
expelled from your chamber into the
late winter's dawn at dusk
the cold air seeps into your cell through
gaps between the casing and the shutter
between the door frame and the door
through cracks
in mortar and masonry he oozes
in inhaled
the late winter returns
home not to warm you out of your bed
but to freeze you in -

More on Meg Keane's upcoming publishing imprint.
"Over the next year, #MegKeene #Books will release four to six #novels that she and the founders of #WickedSon believe will elevate #Jewish voices and reconstruct a bygone communal Jewish #literary conversation. She will also edit a forthcoming #literarymagazine designed to shape the Jewish #book-buying audience.
"My goal is to make Jewish #publishing feel really cool,” #Keene told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency.
“I’m planning to acquire books across genres — male #authors, female authors, #romance, #thriller, literary #fiction — you know, the works,” she added. “I also intend to put everything I have behind each book, and sort of ask the Jewish community to support these books and make the case for them.”

This. Build our own institutions. They'll succeed.
"#Keene is the eponymous tastemaker at the helm of a new #imprint within #WickedSonPress, a 5-year-old #publisher that has released mostly #nonfiction that leans right.

"Modern #textual #scholarship has shown that #ToledotYeshu never existed as a single, fixed #composition. Unlike the #Mishna or the #Talmud, whose textual traditions gradually stabilized through widespread printing, Toledot Yeshu remained fluid for centuries. #Scribes copied from whatever exemplars were available, frequently introducing additions, omissions, stylistic revisions, and entirely new #narrative episodes. Rather than preserving a single "original" version, the #manuscript tradition reflects a living #text continually reshaped by its transmitters.
The #Łomżamanuscript is especially noteworthy because it preserves a substantially expanded #recension. Its elaborate title-page introduction immediately distinguishes it from many simpler copies. Throughout the text, the #Hebrew is unusually polished, employing a consciously #biblical style that lends the narrative an air of #antiquity and #literary refinement."

"Among the many #faiths practiced by millions of #Texas #students, a new statewide required #reading list that includes #biblical passages draws from just two traditions: #Protestant #Christianity and #Judaism.
Yet Texas #rabbis say #Jews had no role in shaping how #Judaism appears in the #curriculum, and they disagree with how the lone #Jewish text is presented. Rather than teaching about Judaism on its own terms, they argue, the lessons filter Jewish texts through a #Christian perspective.
The #readinglist, which is expected to go into effect in 2030, will have #publicschool students across the state reading passages from the #NewTestament and mostly Christian #translations of the #Hebrew Bible alongside #literary classics. Of the curriculum’s six #HebrewBible readings, just one uses a Jewish #translation."

before the south gate
was unlocked
while he waited
to ask the watchman
if the pestilence had come
to wittenberg before he had
the east gate
was opened like an eye
and the morning’s early sun
that had risen from where it waited
its shining entered
the town like a tide -

Female gaze mails male gays, baits male gaze; female gays' gaze gates no way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrDML1ZaNaM
Idk, there's something in there. OH!Hey! Hays hates, hazes gays; Hays gates gays' gaze. Gays train blame game (fame), gain grace. Hays laid hate-bait, days say "Nay, ain't great," and rein place shame.
Came they late, the lay debate brays same: Gay gaze may stay!Omfgggg Ouran High School Host Club but Uranian -> Ouranian.

Aton Petrov: Time Travel May Be Possible Without Major #Paradoxes
Short 12-min #video on the #cultural & #literary #history and #theoretical #physics of Time Travel. Thinking on the subject rapidly generates paradoxes of #mathematical #logic, which #Petrov says cannot exist.

Someone sent this to me earlier today.
Now it is stuck in my head because I apparently never looked at them as I was stuffing them in my mouth.
It's like the winning lottery numbers in that old fortune cookie I threw away years ago all over again. Sigh.
I don't believe I was always so oblivious to details but here I am.
