Shoutouts to Kingsley’s Meats and Wiltshire Pantry here in Louisville Kentucky for providing the majority of our thanksgiving meal. Each grown child bringing a side, and I made homemade cranberry sauce. Will still wear me out, but makes it all easier.

Here’s the truth: Democracy begins at the table. Not the one in DC, but the one in your kitchen. The one with the gravy boat and the quiet resentment
To save democracy, we’ve got to start by saving the relationships that sustain it

Flushed face and low grade fever after yesterday’s steroid injection into thoracic spine. At least hoping it’s that and not a germ picked up with wedding festivities.

Successful, beautiful wedding. We are 39.5 years married, all 3 kids are now college educated, married homeowners, now with the baby boy marrying his love last night. Our parents, both sets having been married 60 years, were in attendance, as well as our 5 grandchildren. Definitely blessed.

I was kinda nervous about giving this speech TBH. I don't usually get nervous about public speaking but going to a fancy Washington DC event and talking about fascism and why AI sucks felt like a lot honestly. I was so relieved people seemed to like it.
So I was invited to accept an award for "imagination in service to society." This forced me to think a bit about what "imagination," "service" and "society" mean to me.
Here's the speech I delivered last night:

Louisville's accepting apps to open a temporary cold weather shelter this winter. It made the process simpler, with less red tape, at Metro Council's request after the city shut down a shelter at The StrEatery Food Hall last year. Details on the requirements here:

For many, the holidays don’t feel like joy. It feels like pressure. Like shame. Like trying to stretch a dollar that just won’t stretch anymore.
Know this, you are not alone. You are not a failure. You are not less than. You matter.
Hold love close.

If you read one thing today, make it my former colleague Krista Johnson’s essay on how poverty shaped her reporting.
What childhood poverty taught me about covering education
"The condition of poverty is rarely reflected in the reporting I see — or even the reporting I do," writes Louisville Courier Journal education reporter Krista Johnson.
