I am fond of night and darkness, but of course I live in an era when artificial light is almost too abundant. I don't like them used as metaphors for negative things since that can have racial overtones. And the desert taught me to love shade and night as reprieve from the glaring light and heat.

Unrelated…I was not expecting Only Murders in the Building to be so…sad? @nerdyrealtor.bsky.social and we’re expecting little more farce from the first couple of episodes. (Yes, we are late to the party.)

Being really into Lego has helped my fam be excellent at ikea builds. Also: got to explain industrial design to the kid in an authentic way, so, bonus.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

My favorite tax paperwork is the 990. TIL a small org is on is 3rd strategic plan in 6 years, 20% of the budget goes to a private university for a research study, and the director's salary is more than 8% of the total operating budget. Like...there's just a lot of fun info! apps.irs.gov/app/eos/

Early morning common sense thought: I’ve been working in #edtech for a while. What is easy is the tech, but the “ed” is the challenge, the systems of change harder. (1/2)

Day 3 of #bluesky and it reminds me of early social media where there were communities of folks instead of lots of ads and stuff. Anyway, Hello World!
