I'm (mostly) not here anymore. Instead, find me at instagram.com/bronwentate/ or bronwentate.substack.com/ or just email me!
A farewell post before I disappear: The day my dad was diagnosed with leukemia was also the day I got tenure. At the time, it felt impossible to tell people, much less celebrate. But in August I took two days away from the hospital to get a tattoo about it. Newsletter here!

UNSUSPEND MY STUDENTS, @Columbia!
Looking forward to this!
I have the good fortune of reading among some very skilled, but also very, very kind poets next Thursday. If you're looking for a generous poetic space in which to ponder human existence, this show is for you.
Join us at @MassyArts .

Imagine being trusted with the welfare of students and choosing to force them out onto the street in one of the most expensive cities in the world! Who would continue to send their kids to a place that did this?

I am outraged. Today the president of my university called in NYPD to put 100 of our students in handcuffs and *arrest* them for engaging in a political protest on campus, illegitimately criminalizing political dissent. columbiaspectator.com/news/2…

I especially like this bit, where Tate is referring to @oliverburkeman's FOUR THOUSAND WEEKS, which is that rare entity of a book in the "self-help" genre that is actually quite good, decently lucid, and might possibly help someone with the "feeling human and OK" thing. love!
