Attended the #WriteHive 2026 presentation by @Mari_Ness@wandering.shop on 'Popular #Poetry: Why the Forms Work and What's Next', which was moderated by @historyneverwas@wandering.shop. Lots of interesting & entertaining insights! Also attended the Guest of Honour #interview of Carmeline Melchior by Patchree Jones. Very good on the need for more diverse #representation in speculative literature (and literature in general).

Deb Haaland's life reads like it shouldn't have led to Washington, DC. She struggled with alcoholism and got sober in 1988. She was a single mom who relied on food stamps and started a salsa company to get by. She went to college at 28, law school at 40. Then she became one of the first two Native American women in Congress. Then the first Native American Cabinet secretary in US history, leading the Interior Department. She launched the first federal investigation into Indian boarding schools, protected millions of acres of public land, and brought tribes to the decision-making table. Now she's running for governor of New Mexico. If elected, she'd be the first Native American woman governor in US history. A 35th-generation New Mexican and member of the Pueblo of Laguna, she just published her memoir 'A Voice Like Mine.' Representation isn't symbolic. It changes who gets a seat at the table. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deb_Haaland #Indigenous #NewMexico #representation

@brandonspfit@mastodon.social every day I get on the train to go to work , I put on a dress , my makeup and my shoes and then amid the hate looks , nasty comments , I get one person who walks up to me and says “ those shoes are really cute “ or “ that fit looks really good on you “ and it makes it better #trans #transissues #lgbtqia #representation
