Out today! An essential new book of writing about abortion before Roe-- edited and introduced by @kweingarten.bsky.social, foreword by @rtraister.bsky.social and afterword by @renee.bsky.social
A great discussion of a life-changer of a book!
And a reminder to donate to abortion funds regularly if you can! abortionfunds.org
The main thing I remember from my years of trying to get pregnant and experiencing pregnancy loss was that I usually had no idea wtf was going on and felt totally unprepared for all of it. This is helpful and good to share widely as the stakes keep getting higher.
Happy Birthday Edward Gorey! I hope Ursula is still bugging, bothering, cajoling you in heaven to finish your book.
The Pitt (which I love) is like Mr. Rogers for desocialized adults (most of us?). “When someone dies, we take a minute. [show forces us, too, to take a minute].” Didactic mimetic sentimentalism is back and not a moment too soon.

A collection of colorful Norton Library editions with an emphasis on the lilac and navy edition of Little Women
The best color combo to date in the @wwnorton.bsky.social Norton Library series arrived this week. I’ve never finished Little Women as an adult. !
oh wow-- they look beautiful all stacked up together like that!
Hello!
Officially out tomorrow!
alt text didn't save! 16mm b&w performance footage: pairs of people stand side by side and, grabbing one another's arms or a small piece or rope, lean away from each other and try to walk around cobblestoned Wooster St. Forward motion can be achieved only through contrapuntal balance.
Thank you for reading-- I loved writing this one!

Congratulations to Alejandro Heredia on this incredible debut novel (edited by the one and only Yahdon Israel!)
Congratulations!
This is great!
Have been thinking about Trisha Brown's "Leaning Duets" (1970) a lot this past month.
