I know I'm hitting y'all with a lot of stuff this month. That's because once April ends, I'm going into the lab for a while. Enjoy all of this. It's for you. Me? I'm already into next year.
On this day in: 1985 - Prince was in the middle of recording "Life Can Be So Nice" Also 1985 - Prince recorded "Sometimes It Snows In April" 2016 - Passed away The totality of life captured in 2 songs on the same day. Rest in peace cousin.

I don't write thinkpieces. I write essays. If my essay makes you think then it was a good essay.
No other group is stealing your art money pot of gold. The pots are too small. Your city/state/organization owes all of you those resources.

This has everything to do with her being a woman, of course, but ultimately, at the bottom of all police interactions, is challenge. Any disagreement on any level is seen as a challenge to, not their authority, but their power.
Chaos on the @OhioState campus as police drove demonstrators off the green and made well over a dozen arrests.
At Emory University in Atlanta, economics professor @CarolineFohlin was attempting to protect students by asking Atlanta police officers “what are you doing?” when they violently arrest her and throw her to the ground.
I am celebrating my 53rd birthday my seasoning my kitchen sink with Ajax as the Good intended, cementing my ascension into Old Black Ladyhood.
Happy anniversary to The Mouse on the Mile! 🎉 On this day in 1996, @StephenKing released part 2 of The Green Mile, continuing his experiment with serialising a novel just like Dickens used to do. 28 years old today!
Prince was always the most accessible of pop stars. I saw him play to rooms of under 300 five times, under 2000 at least thirty times and even on the 50+ times I saw him play a stadium/arena he always made everyone there feel like the venue was much smaller than it actually was.
To me this is very simple. College students pay tuition, and they deserve a say in how that money is spent. My personal belief is that cops don't belong anywhere in society, but especially not in that conversation, with weapons drawn on people that are calling for peace.
This is why games about history need to foreground resistance if they want any claim to historical honesty. The state represses any sign of resistance violently. In our safe, privileged little cubby holes, we forget.
Emory's Caroline Fohlin is knocked down by the police while shouting: “I’m a professor!!” Hear the disbelief in her voice. She never expected to be treated like this by her own university for protesting Israel's slaughter. But remember, democracy is on the ballot in Nov...

This picture was taken 10 years ago today on #RecordStoreDay. Then it was about supporting independent records with sales of used vinyl. There weren't hoards of reissues and it wasn't commercialised. Most independent record shops I know don't take part because they gain nothing.

@scottwoodssays here is @scottwoodssays's thread, and Scott, I think about your words often!! thank you for seeing me and my book x.com/scottwoodssays…
Recently I came across a poetry-related tweet by Jacquelyn Ardam @jaxwendy, which in turn compelled me to read the internet-available introduction to her forthcoming book, "Avidly Reads Poetry," which I then pre-ordered, received, and gleefully inhaled in 2 sittings.
1. ug prof: "you are a beautiful writer but you're using that to cover up the fact that you're not saying anything" 2. grad school prof: "your writing is muscular, like Barbara Johnson's" (SOBS) 3. internet stranger @scottwoodssays, whose thread about my book made me feel SEEN
What’s the most memorable feedback you’ve received on your work?
