Jon Batiste finds the Blues in Beethoven
Batiste re-imagines Beethoven compositions in his new album. It's "not that the original wasn't great and transcendent..." he says. "But there's also a lot of things since then that have happened."

Amidst all the ugliness & hate & horror….there are people in this world that help all they encounter to realize there is good in the world, they show that people can be much much more….& they inspire us to try to become the better version of ourselves. Open your heart & eyes, they are all around us.

Last week's travel for my #LiveIn parent fared well. Only select moments felt #MidwestGothic, as certain family maintains certain cycles.
#Grateful for #recovery "away" from #trauma reactions, & for #sobriety with mindful responses to difficult dynamics.

I'm thinking about how tonight was probably the first time Kilmar Abrego Garcia learned that millions of people care about him - the first time he learned that the United States Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring him home. I'm thinking what it must mean for him to know, right now, that he isn't alone.

My way, it's a weekend of #ElderCare with travel. Time for an MRI "round two" with ongoing #assessment. Seemingly, pin the tail & spin the #dementia wheel.

You know the *only* reason he got out so fast was a reporter live posted about this for hours. And, a large amount of public pressure.
Every time someone gets grabbed, there has to be a robust public response immediately.
