Since the world is on fire, I would like to share Edwin, whose favorite thing in the world is wine corks. Except for hair scrunchies. He’s beside himself with joy right now.

People get FIRED over incorrect footnotes FFS.

I made more bolillos today. They’re better than the last batch but I think the sweet spot is in the middle cos these are a little on the “almost burnt” end.

I am bookstore hopping in Guadalajara. So far, I have seen “what would Frida do?” “365 days of the widsom of Frida Kahlo” and a cookbook that purports to use recipes she left in her writings (pictured).

People … do remember she was a Marxist anti-capitalist revolutionary who would hate all of this?

It’s been one of those days. Here’s a photo of me and @pistorin.bsky.social in Guanajuato a few years ago.

After the #NoKings protest at the state capitol in #Austin, people marched through the street.

Also, everyone who had refrained from smoking pot on public property had lit up by this point and I got a contact high filming this.

I am an academic AND I post photos of cats!

Here is Amelia who apparently wore herself out jumping into the dining table and had to immediately take a nap.

I’ve been looking forward to this since I saw it in Waterstone’s in London back in September (I was traveling light and couldn’t take all the books).

Not very touristy, worth a look see!
