Person who had my garden plot in the past apparently left some garlic bulbs in the soil - a fun surprise that will be used for dinner tonight!

ICYMI, highly recommend this essential report in these harrowing times.
New Research Alert! The report “Trans digital rights: Improving data visibility, privacy and belonging for gender-diverse communities” ✨ 💫🌈 Our research asks: If we could reimagine digital rights that center the needs of gender-diverse communities, what would they look like?

I only rooted for the Philadelphia Eagles to win the Super Bowl because they were the underdog.

Now that they're declining the WH trip that comes with winning, I might root for them more...

Like many Midwesterners, I respond to extreme stress with excessive crafting. But the most Midwestern thing is that when we screwed up warping the loom we fixed it with a Petoskey stone.

I wrote about why 2025 is the year of the craft night! With references to craft & political action, polymer clay pickles, and the cringey legacy of the pussyhat. Be a pal and give it a read?

Fantastic talk with Emily Bowe and Ian Spangler about their 🌟 computer maps show at the Leventhal Center / Boston Public Library — I hope to visit before it closes in late March!

Looks like the State Department decided that "TQ" was just excess baggage on the LGBTQ travel page. Because nothing says inclusivity like editing people out!
