Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Hegseth is now threatening to recall Sen. Mark Kelly to active duty in order to court martial him.

An editor at the #Haiku Society Of America conference was saying how he's not a big fan of haiku/senryu starting with prepositional phrases and now I want to write a whole bunch of them doing just that.

i am lost
