  1. The Collected Poems of Delmore Schwartz Reviewed

    Illustration by Jan Robert Dünnweller Delmore Schwartz died in the early morning of July 11, 1966, in an ambulance on the way to Roosevelt Hospital. He’d been living alone in a seedy hotel near Times Square, reading compulsively and scribbling in the many notebooks that he kept during his last, itinerant years. At fifty-two, he was no longer the precocious young writer and critic—“blazing with insight, warm with gossip,”….Story continues… By: Maggie Doherty Source:  The New […]

  2. I'm #GratefulForYou @pathfinder 🥰 #AutisticElder and #WordSmith.

  5. “Taught from infancy that beauty is woman’s sceptre, the mind shapes itself to the body, and roaming round its gilt cage, only seeks to adorn its prison.”

    Thank you for your conspiratorial analysis of what Harris was REALLY thinking. And I'm not the one thanking you: Trump is.

    Remember: Only a vote for Harris stops Trump.

  7. I've been thinking about #kamalaharris 's speech at the DNC (1st night) for a few days. OK, the part about #Gaza, specifically.

    I decided to annotate my thoughts with terrible graphic design.

    Note: the part on Gaza/Israel was about 200 words, just over 5% of the speech. It was placed 4/5 of the way through the speech.

    I believe Harris emphatically promised to never stop selling weapons to Israel, but maybe that's just my interpretation.

    I think this speech was carefully crafted to walk a fine line: expressing sympathy for Palestine while never implicating Israel in Gaza's destruction and reinforcing Kamala's commitment to #AIPAC.

  10. STATUS: in an entire SEASON of #ADHD #hyperfixation on #WRITING

    GOOD! I'm accomplishing oh so very much #wordsmith-ing! Yay!

    NOT GOOD! I'm completing ~5% of tasks & other projects that *need* *my* attention!

    Also, spouse & offspring are making noises about missing me?😬

    Also, I live in the hope that during my literal 6-8 hours of daily butt-in-chair writing, something external will remind me to drink water & eat. 🫤
