New Abortion Stories
Originally posted on Tangled Locks Journal:
The important work of authentic stories. I wish I were writing an uplifting review of the year. Sure, there were many bright spots, but the truth is, America and the world became more dangerous for many people. The culture of contempt has remained firmly in place. Dehumanizing and denigrating… -
Sending Smiles
Celebrating a religious holiday? Have a merry, happy, joyous one. Not celebrating anything? Have a great day! Having a complicated day? Sending comfort. I think I am doing a little bit of each! Wishing you all the very best.

Oh no! Toxic Relationship Alert!
Admittedly, I was too comfortable in my relationship with Twitter. I let Twitter be my everything. I even started ghosting my close friends and family on FaceBook. My partner Twitter was EXCITING.

This morning, the earth’s shadow ate the moon. Too ravenous, not even leaving a brilliant bite. Even with all my science, I am struck with awe by the celestial drama. Whispering incantations of hope between sips of my morning coffee. #LunarEclipse Morning poetry by Teresa Berkowitz.
