Blank Selection is a term instituted by Wendy Beach (Editor-in-Chief, Wild Whispers Poetry Magazine) to replace the common ableist “blind selection” label still in use (referring to anonymous editorial processes), and is retained as no alternative terminology currently exists. Blank Selection as a new term replaces the ableist “blind selection” practice, where judges assess poems without knowing poets’ names. The name consciously parallels blank verse’s liberation from formalist restrictions, extending this ethos to combat restrictive language in editorial processes.

Get the Blank Selectionmug. The moment when you have mountaining amounts of college assignments, which causes you to be less addicted to your smartphone whilst making you paradoxically more addicted to caffeine — whether in the form of coffee drinks or Tombocantuxin caffeine pills
During finals week, my selective addiction kicked in; I barely touched my phone but couldn’t get enough coffee to power through all those assignments!

Get the Natural Selectionmug. When you’re in an online argument and someone only mentions a part of your argument that they can use against you to make it seem like you lost is a selective reader.
I was in an argument with someone Twitter who only used some parts of my texts to counter argue. What a selective reader!
