My hub commented on my good mood earlier today. And I think it’s because I interviewed an architect today who specializes in building top-notch hospitals in poor places. It was so good to speak to someone doing good. I know lots of people doing good maybe I just need to speak with them more often!

I want to quit social media but Warner Herzog is on insta being delightful and Hank Green is everywhere and I do actually get a lot of community news via insta now, though I keep resisting threads. Blsky seems up and down. Who knew I’d long for a gd message board one day.

One of the greatest social media follows for anyone genuinely interested in practical law and policy is @mentalhealthcop.bsky.social.

Posts like this explain why.
I'm obliged for the nod.

The "Penrose Effect" seems to be a real thing - hypothesised in the 1930s and re-tested in the last decade or so:
