Beautiful essay by Kelly Masked&Vaxxed Caldwell in @SugarSugarSalt_ Perfectly in sync with our upstate snowstorm. “Deep in the dead of winter, not long after the Solstice, we wake to the illusion of summer, to the brightest daylight of the year. Perihelion.”

Closed up the bar I work at downtown and was devastated to see how many people were hunkered down trying to stay warm on our sidewalk. Below freezing, and with the constant Elm St winds it’ll be a rough night. No one deserves to live like this. #HousingFirst #HousingNow

"It would take me years of therapy to reconcile all the time I wasted chasing the wrong men, suppressing my desire to be a mother, pursuing a music career that never fully materialized. I had lost track of the truth." — starina in today's must-read! open.substack.com/pub/oldster/p/…

I just taught 10th grade English and had an eraser thrown at my head. Honestly what teachers these days have to deal with…I can’t even. This day has been too much. I’m getting ice cream. #substituteteacher

Do I know anyone in Kingston or NYC who has a cassette tape player I can borrow for an hour or so? Doing research on my book and need to listen to some old tapes. 📻💥

I had a writing instructor at Gotham Writers who used to always say ‘hopes, dreams, and fears’. Give all your characters hopes, dreams, and fears. Sometimes the simple dreams are all you need.
