For a century, the tiny Coolidge Auditorium, at the Library of Congress, has been a wellspring of cultural integrity, innovative music and American ingenuity. (And free concerts.)

One of the kids in my daughter's class got suspended for a day for cracking two kids in the head with his Percy Jackson book after he was being teased and made fun of by other students for reading. The teacher did the worthless "please stop" like 10 times and never sent the bullies to the office

Generative AI makes me so tired.

Apparently this was a photo that popped up for a colleague when she was looking for pictures of fleas.

Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”

I think that a beautiful 113-year-old recording might lift your spirits, if for any reason your spirits need lifting.

Today is Juneteenth.

Instead of erasing the history of this country, we choose to learn, share, and grow.

Here's the history of Juneteenth, and why it matters today:

Because people keep asking, the Story of The Lizard In That Dude's Leg. Some caveats:

1. This happened more than twenty years ago. There are no pictures. There was a small article in a local paper with, again, no pictures (I'm assuming that's what the producers of 9-1-1: LONE STAR found).
