Our Shadow Woods community continues to mourn the loss of our beloved friend, Ann Everton of Darsombra. She died Friday, October 3, 2025, as a result of a vehicle crash in upstate New York while she and her partner and bandmate Brian Daniloski were traveling to their first fall tour date.
Science journalists DO NOT NEED PHDS, but I think they need some broad scientific knowledge and ravenous curiosity.The author gets to the heart of journalism: thorough fact-checking!

Still true. The math ain’t mathing. I sometimes think selling my house and renting when I did was the smartest thing I’ve done financially. www.bankrate.com/real-estate/...

Where do you draw the line with pro fascist (or pro-monarchy?) rhetoric before cutting someone off/blocking them? Will an anti-trans or racist statement do it for you? What is your tipping point? Or maybe I need to stop looking at Failbook?
I’ll be in DC Friday!
One hard lesson I have to keep learning over and over -- is that to get more done efficiently and without mistakes I actually need to SLOW DOWN -- that old meta motto of "move fast and break things" really is true. Nothing needs to be broken.
Today my baby son Sam is #35. Hard to believe! I hope we get to go on more adventures like this in the future. @goopcat
Happy Friday! I hope you resisted the oligarchy today!

I feel pretty proud to work for this organization most days, but especially today.

Sure wish I had purchased this house when it came on the market a few years back.

I am really glad I started out as a journalist. I feel like it gave me a different set of eyes to view the world. But, actually, now that I type that sentence out, I think I was BORN with that kind of skepticism and discernment (an innate bullshit detector), and journalism just helped me refine it.
My spouse and I’ve been semi seriously house hunting since last fall. We’ve found a few really good candidates but they go under contract so quickly. I’m close to just bagging the idea. Do I need to own a house again? No. Feels like a good time to save as much as possible. Maybe continue renting?
Received a copy of Philip Cohen’s book Citizen Scholar: public engagement for social scientists @philipncohen.com Seems like a good read for our current times. I’ll be reading the chapter on social media first 😺
