So when I was teaching on Wednesday I had to go barefoot to get enough traction to run and move quickly but I still needed to turn.. and I sprained some toes. So I need to rehab those.

No foot pics but there still isn’t a good β€œshoe” for modern and contemporary #dance. I’m still in one ballet flat

Patients say measles 'worse than expected' as Utah hits 350+ infections, doctors say Health officials plead with residents to vaccinate against measles as Utah hits 358 infections.

Over 120 people have been hospitalized due to measles in Utah alone. "It is, at this time a real threat in our state and something we can do to stop it," said Dr. Leisha Nolen, state epidemiologist… pleading for people to get themselves and their children vaccinated.” @jackiantonovich.bsky.social

This very innocuous videoβ€”where we merely cite a court transcript that highlighted a controversial position taken by the Trump DOJβ€”was flagged by TikTok for "violating community standards."

Four takeaways on Madison's violence prevention efforts Leaders from Madison’s public health, police, fire, parks and traffic engineering agencies presented updates to City Council members this week.

"Patterson presented a three-year comparison of crime data, which showed overall decreases in nonviolent crime from last year: a 24% decrease in shots fired, … a 14% decrease in robberies, a 42% decrease in burglaries, a 50% decrease in stolen autos, and a 19% decrease in theft from cars."

It’s been a momentous week on the dance front. Rehearsals kick off tomorrow after weeks of trying to nail down a time.

So a busy week becomes more busy but I am grateful.

Call your reps about this. Every time a book ban has been overturned or shut down, it's because the vast majority of people who believe in the freedom to read spoke up.

Whoops, I missed my chance to make the β€œ640% should be enough for everybody” joke. But it’s obviously not enough because the PicoIDE campaign keeps going. 6 days left! I’m blown away by how far it’s come. BTW the last update I posted brought even more people with weird systems out of the woodwork!

And not just one time, or in a single location. Multiple times over years; major cities across the US. TX and AZ in 2020 (WaPo), NYC refrigerated trucks and mass graves 2020/2021 (AP), US = one million C19 deaths 2022 "that we know of" per NYT. Don't forget the schools made into temp body storage.
