Overall, this slim book articulates well the politics of our current times. It’s in convo w/ Hartmut Rosa, Byung-Chul Han, and others. Importantly, Jager includes Baudrillard in the discussion. #BookSky #AntonJager #hyperpolitics #politics #criticaltheory #mediastudies #philosophy #literature

Keeping the party going with this Jim Daniels poem

“It is that freedom, the freedom to imagine alternative ways the world could be, that the tech billionaires’ rhetoric of inevitability tries to wrest away from us.” I highly recommend this engaging, enlightening book. #BookSky #AdamBecker #MoreEverythingForever #AI #Tech #nonfiction #science

“[A]ll horrors are dulled by routine.” A powerful novella that reminded me a bit of “Omelas,” another deeply philosophical story that speaks to our current times. #novella #literature #BookSky #RobertoBolano #Bolano #story #narrative

An old phone booth I ran across in the UK a couple of years ago. What a great example of recycling. #librarians #recycling

Man, did Yeats have our number or what?

I love how this poem moves from funny to serious I've seen this. The bar in Belfast International Airport. We heard the alarm, could smell the smoke & sat on & finished our pints. I have witnessed the second half of the poem too. It's time to pour our pints on the fire #Poetry #Poemoftheday

Which book saved you as a child? #BookSky

When I know it's definitely a trap, but I'm going anyway.

Definitely lives up to the hype. Tremendously moving. Lots of seemingly lived-in moments. I love how writers can pack so much into a small space. The ending had me in tears. #clairekeegan #foster #novella #shortfiction #fiction #literature #irishliterature

Today, in my Introduction to Literature class, a student said, “I don’t hate poetry anymore.” I will go to sleep happy tonight. #education #educator #professor #teacher #literature #english #poetry #poem #college

I love painting. Always have. It often provides resonance (Rosa). Out of my recent paintings, I’m most proud of this one, which is 8x10 ins. #oilpainting #oilpaint #painting #painter #artist #watermill

I’m not even done with this book and am already thinking about how much better society would be if everyone—yes, everyone—read this book. I wish someone had given this to me when I was a boy. #bellhooks #culturalcriticism #literature #philosophy #masculinity #feministtheory #love #liberation

The Thing (1982) is a Thanksgiving movie. Thought of it while prepping a Friendsgiving turkey today.

Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

Well, this is a first—my flash piece “Bakewell Tarts” was nominated for Best Small Fictions, 2026. Thank you to @hotchpotchliterary.bsky.social! Congrats to the other nominees! #bestsmallfictions #flashfiction #flash #literature #creativewriting #writer #writing

Today, inspired by some of my students’ podcasts on mental health, I ran. It was my first run in months—and it very much felt like it. They’re all getting zeros. #mentalhealth #exercise #running #teaching #teacher #professor #educator

Pleased to have “Batboy,” an unsettling short story told from two POVs, published by Wilderness House. Not for the easily upset. #fiction #story #shortstory #narrative #literature #writing #writer www.whlreview.com#fiction

Thrilled that @hotchpotchliterary.bsky.social published “Bakewell Tarts,” my flash story about a failing relationship (among other things). #fiction #flashfiction #literature #literary

I kind of laugh at the idea of a "reliable narrator". Have you met people?!
