She wouldn’t. In a region that had legislated its commitment to life, she would spend her final days struggling to find anyone to save hers.
I admit, I’m a bit heated right now, and there are obviously a lot of parties at fault in the way this all went down, but if you voted for Donald Trump, you voted for a system that allowed/caused Ciji Graham and women like her to die.
Deaths that would be preventable in any country without barbaric laws that control women’s bodies. It feels like these people would rather let
...I just gotta get Kottke to link to Foofaraw somehow... So if you're the magical person who got this site in front of Jason last week, this is directed at you. Go tell him about Foofaraw, a zine of surreal storytelling and worldly observations, which publishes some of the best short stories, novellas, wacky columns, webcomics, and soon, a giant anthology!

So here we are… looking back at all the wonderful things that happened waaaay back in December 2025 with a completely revamped and redesigned LLoN for the new year. There are probably a few details here and there that might need to be updated and improved, but welcome to 2026.
Umm… so this happened… the godfather of linkblogging somehow came across this silly little site and linked to it… bringing over 4,000+ visitors…
I don’t ever go into the Ghost dashboard, so I had no idea until just now as I was getting ready to send out the first Little Letter of Nonsense this year (late as usual…)
