Literature
Is the butter
Of genres.
Sure, you can live
Off bread,
But when a story
Melts in your mouth,
You’re glad you’re
Not yet dead.

As we near the end of our second week of field work with the @whaleresearch.bsky.social, here is a highlight clip which includes some drone footage and hydrophone recordings we captured just a few days ago of J-Pod, K-Pod, & L-Pod!
Take a look and see if you can spot J45 snagging a salmon! 👀 🎣

If all the kids who loved geometry and geography and algebra are now the technocrat billionaires who rule the world, maybe in the next generation it will be the poets’ turn.
And there will be food, housing, health, childcare and good education for all.
That’s for damn sure.

Trump sent his “election monitors” to Paterson, NJ, where one of the most esteemed American poets, William Carlos Williams, was a physician caring for the very poor. With this and his recent Great Gatsby party, I’m wondering if there’s an evil American literature major in the administration lol 😜

I graduated Magna Cum Laude
And am a Doctor of Philosophy,
But to me the greatest education
Has come from following the Latin
Meaning of the word: to lead out.
I am amazed by all that nature,
Every single day, still teaches me.

This is Luna,
Our daughter’s domestic rabbit,
Who loves bananas
And is very fond of
Mint hidden in her hay.
She’s named after the moon,
Another celestial goddess
Who is deep black
Despite appearances
To the contrary,
And who also loves to play.

Frog pond update! 🐸
After several weeks of tadpoles getting legs and growing fatter but reluctant to leave the pond in cool weather, our family spotted this courageous little creature yesterday and our daughter-in-law and grandson were the first to hold one!
