Michael's art supply store locally has instituted self-checkout only. My elderly mother couldn't figure out the system, she couldn't pay with cash money. There were no human employees to help. She abandoned her purchases and went home. This is a horrible business practice.

I often think of pursuing my PhD, but at other times I catch myself cutting bread with the dull side of the knife and I realize that maybe I should simply be content that I’ve made it this far.

Don’t allow anyone to tell you that reading Edgar Allan Poe in a dimly-lit café on a cobblestone side street in Vienna during a raging snowstorm whilst enjoying cappuccinos and croissants “doesn’t classify” as self-care.

Seriously.
Amazon, please stop asking me if books I bought month ago met my expectations. I still have unread books I bought in 2012. Be real.

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

You think everything is fine and dandy, until you look up at the calendar... and it shows December.

oh my god
Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.

The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal:
"orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Since we aren't in a war, Pete Hegseth isn't technically a war criminal. He's just a garden-variety mass murderer.

I don't remember it looking like this the last time I made a blueberry clafoutis. It was much more cakey. But it's blueberries and more or less custard. Gonna taste alright.

I'm old.

If you're not, listen to this.

Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.

Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.

It's literally never been more important.
