Thanks for another mind-blowing Monday newsletter, @70sscifiart.bsky.social Monday is already feeling a bit like this uncredited image from the cover of the British VHS for 1982's Parasite.
I wrote a lil newsletter about WIDOW’S BAY and the unique culture of communities reachable only by boat (having lived in one!)

Jenn R-J@jennfel.bsky.social · 2mo agoI’m deeply honored to have this senryu, first published in FemkuMag #39 last year, published in the Haiku 2026 Anthology, by Modern Haiku Press. Thanks so much to Editors Lee Gurga and Scott Metz. Congratulations to my fellow poets who had work selected. #senryu #haiku #poetry
Love Hermione Baddeley, and recommend the 1948 version of Brighton Rock, where Baddeley goes up against Richard Attenborough playing a menacing young sociopath.

Food refusal is bad news. Digby Flopwell advises, "Don't ignore it."

It's enough to make even a seasoned rabbit guardian's stomach drop! Read houserabbit.org/updates/2026-june-when-your-rabbit-stops-eating for more information.
