Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Six years ago a client came to me. His landlord was trying to evict him over the last payment of a rent to own contract. The client had remodeled the entire house himself with his own hands, a room at a time.

Today, client won the house.

Some days are good days.

I remember an expose about eschatological evangelicalism at the Air Force Academy during the Iraq war that everyone sort-of poo-poo'd and said 'well that's the Air Force for ya!' Whoops.

WELCH: Mr. Yoho is also the husband of your former spokesperson, Tricia McLaughlin?

NOEM: Yes

WELCH: So your former assistant and her husband are the ones that got the DHS no bid contract for $143m. Any dispute about that?

NOEM: No.

I was born in Chicago, where my Sicilian grandmother taught my German-Polish mother how to make Lasagna for her new husband. In 1960, my family moved to the suburban edge of Memphis, where I drank from a Mason jar and enjoyed biscuits and Sorghum Molasses, but I've had them at the same time!

Paramount’s Debt Downgraded to Junk Following Warner Bros. Purchase Deal Paramount Skydance Corp. shares fell more than 8% after Fitch Ratings downgraded the film and TV company’s debt rating to junk to reflect a surge in borrowings from the $110 billion takeover of Warner...

It is fueled by $24 billion from sovereign wealth funds in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi, and it has the political support of a sworn racist, pathological liar, pedophile predator, and corrupt kleptocrat.

Yeah, what could go wrong, right?

Kafka understood that an even greater indignity than being turned into a giant insect was still being required to go to work afterward.

Thanks for reminding me. It's amazing. From the review, "Inky chord progressions resolve into mystery, and lyrics leave only afterimages. The emptiness of its first two minutes allows you to adjust to the dim light of an album recorded in almost complete darkness. Then it just glows."

somethings never change

“My deepest feeling about politicians is that they are dangerous lunatics to be avoided when possible and carefully humoured; people, above all, to whom one must never tell the truth.”

 The first comic slide of “reasons to wear a mask 2026” depicts a person wearing a white mask who says “Hell yea!” Around them are bright pastel colors and cute but ominous looking SARS-CoV-2 viruses. Text reading “a lil manifesto about taking care of yourself and others- with over 50 citations! By Gillian Levine.”

This comic slide from “why you should wear a mask 2026” by Gillian Levine playfully gives reasons of why to wear a mask using a Monopoly board. Each square represents a different reason to mask, from protecting yourself and others to protecting yourself from other airborne virus. Dice and game board pieces are scattered around.

A personal note on a terrible day Hello everyone! It’s a terrible day!

Last night public radio lost federal funding. I encourage podcast producers to pull for public radio now. Reach out to your listeners. Encourage them to give. Shows like mine would not exist without public radio. www.rumblestripvermont.com/campaigns/vi...

Gloriously sunny day.

Gloriously sunny day.

Today, Mademoiselle Sunisa was born. She's as beautiful as her birth day. We're gaga. If you're wondering, the word "sunisa" is Thai/Khmer and means "beautiful woman" or "lovely woman." The name is composed of: "su", meaning "good" or "beautiful" and "nisa", meaning "woman" or "night." Perfect.

A magical moment on the trail yesterday: an unexpectedly close encounter with a great blue heron creekside. Usually we just see them as they fly away like at the end of this video but this one gave a few moment to take in its beauty first.
