Outrageous. @chiosse.bsky.social was protecting one of his neighbors from eviction, as a result of deed theft — a plague in Central Brooklyn right now. There was no reason for NYPD officers to roughly throw him to the ground. It sure doesn’t make anyone safer. Release him now.
My prairie trilliums are blooming 🥰 Such a treat before they go dormant the rest of the year.

I continue to be meh on the politics of Project Hail Mary but Rocky was an absolute winner and James Ortiz deserves an award for his AMAZE AMAZE AMAZE vocal performance and puppetry and they are a powerful reminder that puppetry programs, which colleges are closing, matter

Earlier this week I was giving an update to some donors and said something that totally shocked them and made me realize those who aren’t literally in healthcare have no idea how truly unstable it all is: I get at least 3 emails a day offering my clinic medium to large lines of credit.

Last night I got to play in a showcase of UNC student songwriters at Cat’s Cradle, and it was by far the best thing that happened this whole stupid year. It is wild how much great music these students just *make* despite all the bullshit in the world. That is hope.
