Tuesday
I was going to do micro blogs after school or whatever but ran into trouble on my phone, but then I realized, I still have a few minutes before my night class and I’m in the library waiting for my second wind and wishing I had coffee, and I might as well write a thing.…

Feels: College wk 1
First week of school was sort of a whir. Hard but good….looking at essays as intensely as we have has sometimes been really hard to handle emotionally, and in a way I wasn’t — am not — prepared for. I love doing school and being in that environment and I want to be actively involved…

An Open Letter to Hillary from Quivering Daughters
Dear Hillary, I don’t even know where to begin. You’ve grown and lived and thrived and your life journey is a beautiful work of art, it almost feels wrong to bring up Quivering Daughters even just to say thank you. But I’m not speaking just for me, when I say, sincerely, thank you for writing…
