I have been doing morning pages so faithfully lately that I have run out of notebooks and am relegated to actually writing in a hardbound journal that says “JOURNAL” on the front and has a ribbon bookmark. Had to mess up the first page to deconsecrate the damn thing from its work conference origins.

Post a book you love from the 80s. No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

Knitted myself a yoga mat strap. Noticed a nail in the corner where I keep the mat, thought why not be tidy and hang up the strap? Accidental, uh, Georgia O’Keeffe.

Reading Richard Osman’s latest, and just came to the startling realization that when a character in a book gets a text message and hasn’t looked at it yet, I get the same anxious-excited-pending feeling I would get from an unread text IRL. It’s Pavlovian rather than related to what the text may be.

I love the holidays. Spouse just walked through the room singing a traditional folk song about Tyler Glasnow.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

Been all around the country this fall, from Snowmass to Mt. Washington, but the best of all is to be on the Huron River with my boo.

@crockett.house.gov It's because the BUNKER is below the East Wing. He's enlarging and modernizing/weaponizing it for the regime to hide from us because they never plan to leave. That's why the ballroom is elevated. We MUST remove them before construction is completed.

I like to think about what it will be like when we Gen X are old. Our caregivers will have modern names like Gertrude and Ethel. They’ll make fun of our old-timey tattoos and try to up our meds when we sing classics like Chocolate Rain, Hamster Dance, and Come on Fhqwhgads.

The free market lies to you because you ask it to. When we were told not to wear antiperspirant to mammograms because it can mess up the image, idiots heard “aluminum causes breast cancer.” Instead of setting them straight, every brand, afraid to lose, made an “aluminum free” version… w/ alum salt.

Friends attending protests. Please watch for kettles.
My introverts who like to sit on the sidelines, look out for kettles and sing like the beautiful canaries you are.

131 years ago members of my family attended a singalong for Union veterans from the Civil War. Here is their song sheet.
Fair warning not all the language holds up, but Freedom and preservation of the Union was the focus. Sherman’s dashing Yankee boys indeed. Please let’s not do it again.

Just had a “doctor visit” where I was seen by a PA who used an AI tool to summarize our convo and still got things wrong, and didn’t see the drug allergy in my file so he tried to prescribe something I can’t take. Do better, Michigan Medicine!

Hellooooo I'm sure you've seen people suggest it's totally harmless to generate the odd AI image just for a bit of fun but let's take the theft from artists out of the equation...it uses the same amount of power to create five AI images as it does to boil the water for a mug of coffee.
