Best of the best, really. I've been wanting to get a pic of a least bittern for years now. I'd seen a handful but always as they were flying and gave me barely enough time to squint and go, "What ... is ...? Aww man!"

Happy Hogmanay & Happy New year to you all. Let’s hope we can all stretch out and relax a bit in 2026 and that everyone can just find a bit of peace and tranquility. 2025 has been a bit of a challenge in so many ways, so I’m sending out Big Love 🩷 to everyone who’s found it hardgoing X

Wanted to end this funky year with beauty.

We took the kids to the Studio Museum of Harlem.

Thought I’d share some of the loveliness.

If you were watching movies in the 80s, you almost certainly knew his face, even if you didn't know his name. Australian character actor Vernon Wells turns 80 today.

Here are some things I’m proudest of that I wrote this year. I’m very grateful to my editors, especially @mariabustillos.com, @attackerman.bsky.social, and the great @tinajordan.bsky.social and Leah Greenblatt at the Times, for letting me do stuff I had always wanted to do but worried was too weird:

My best photographs of 2025, a short thread.

A tobacco hornworm on one of its favorite foods, a garden tomato plant (Texas, May 2025). This one makes the cut because it is more aesthetically pleasing than I was aiming for, somehow.

Please meet fiesty little Yukon Cornelius. 5 weeks old.

Don’t be fooled by his adorable floof! He’s streetwise and tough, and is slowly learning the comforts of Being Inside.

Yukon and his sister are closely bonded. Adoptable in Feb!

The mail is a public mass communication service ie essential to democracy
“the USPS must turn a profit” makes me want to set things on fire

they put a clause in the fucking constitution about postal service, that’s how important it is

nothing in there about “only if you can make money on it”
🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.
