We are collecting things that can be done in the lights of #IMLS and #NEH being shut down. In short: Focus on what you CAN do, not on what you CAN'T do.

whatever US based website and the info stored there you (and your work) rely on:
- save and/or mirror what you need
- backup your own stuff and take it down, find a new home for that
(same goes for apps and services - find other stuff you can use. do NOT give the fascists access to your life)
@jwassers.bsky.social's point ↑ about appreciating " #contingency, rather than a grand vision" recalls my first review @lareviewofbooks.bsky.social:

I had an enjoyable and wide ranging conversation about #contingency with Pat Flynn yesterday.
Hello (is this right?), I #teach at #Michigan and research in C20 and C21 Anglophone #poetry and poetics, including #lyric theory. I published a book called _Lyric Shame_https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674734395 and am currently thinking about the #contingency of taste, the figure of #genre in contemporary American #poetics, socially significant #ambiguity, irony, and poetic representations and theories of audience. On twitter I also posted night sky pictures a fair amount. :/
