I saw a woman on Instagram who is carrying a ziploc bag of confetti in her purse for when it happens. Be prepared!
What a time to be alive
Watched Marcel the Shell with Shoes On last night and it was FANTASTIC. We started it a bit worried, such movies tend to be cutesy and inane, but no. From the first minute we were completely hooked. Absolutely incredible.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

A 4x3 array of glossy picture postcards, each a looming digital mathematical overlay on an original landscape photograph. In the bottom left corner sits a gallery card of the same size. The assemblage exhibits the Droste effect to one level.
Last month I completed a set of mathematical picture postcards. Each is a reminder that math is beautiful and powerful and larger-than-life, yet resides in the mind. Printed for snail mailing, but also suitable as small, inexpensive decor.

Two hooded figures with lamps approach a moonlit, isolated cottage. A woman answers the door. We have come for the child, says the hooded figure So soon? she asks It is time, says the hooded figure. The woman is distraught. We should never have got him a library card! What is done cannot be undone, says the hooded figure We couldn’t see the harm! We just wanted him to enjoy reading! For most, it ends there, says the hooded figure, turning away and walking into the wilderness Oh lord, What have I done! says the woman, the child walks past her and out into the darkness with them. Do not cry mother. I am a writer now.
