Time for Mamdani and Obama to go to a baseball game with the Pope. Let’s just blow this whole thing wide open.

Pikes/Pines | Spring sights around the Hill — Flowering currants, Bigleaf blossoms, and Bushtits (yes, we said Bushtits) Spring can be disorientingly distracting.

Claude Monet, Seine At Vetheuil, 1879 #art

Charity Meshach, Nigerian (1997- ), Red Garment I, 2025, oil on canvas, 91.4 x 91.4 x cm, private collection

This 1926 woodblock print, titled Kumoi Cherry Trees (Kumoi sakura), is a masterful work by Yoshida Hiroshi (1867–1950), a leading figure in the Shin-hanga movement. The composition features a grand weeping cherry tree with cascading pink blossoms that frame a full, pale moon hanging low in a soft teal sky. Beneath the sprawling branches, two figures in traditional kimono walk along a darkened hillside, their presence providing a sense of scale and human connection to the vast, ethereal landscape. The rhythmic, organic drape of the cherry blossoms and the silhouettes of the figures reflect a consistent Japanese aesthetic that finds beauty in the delicate balance between nature and human life.

I was just talking to a friend today about Dolly Parton's Imagination Library - new books every month, totally for free, for kids ages 1-5.

My son was part of the program - this is a copy of the letter that came with his last book, right after his 5th birthday.

"Easter Bunny on the Train"
By German artist Michael Sowa (1996)

A closeup of an embroidery in progress. It resembles a stained glass window with a central 6-pointed star and then rose window elements. So far it has blues to greens and pinks to burgundies in distinct satin stitch sections.

Progress is being made! I had intended to add some purples but they are not pictured because I’ve not yet decided.

Still no use case for this piece other than “Sometimes making a pretty is a nice change from screaming into the abyss as the horrors flicker on your timeline.”
