My friend Paul passed away. He was insanely talented, kind, and soft in a world that begs us to be hard. He repeatedly surprised me with Hannibal pieces that made me feel seen, appreciated, and loved. I will miss you, friend. I’m sorry we lost track of each other over the years.

Ran into a brick wall today: my new admin can’t read cursive, which is how a lot of my clients write, so there are tasks she cannot do.
Now, as promised, the elimination of the DOE is actively being drafted.

“The lesson is that it’s not the fascists’ decision to let the fascists win: they don’t make the final call— WE DO. They only win if we consent to their victory, as millions of decent people consented to the victory of the nazis.”

My love: I know you are grieving today. And I write these words not for you, but for me, who grieves with you.
I hope you find some measure of solace in knowing that you do not grieve alone. That grief and present circumstances may feel isolating, but nothing can be further from the truth.
