So every year's end I really appreciate their handy list with links.

Video taken across a 12 minute period, sunset lit water fans will REALLY like this one!

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

It's very clear that unlimited wealth causes brain damage. That's not an exaggeration.

the plethora of depressing articles about reading lately made me think about how a person winds up a reader—and stays that way. it's not a science, that's for sure! the weird alchemy of childhood and curiosity and countless variables that all could have easily been different
It doesn't take a lot for people to start reading. But year after year, what keeps you coming back? In this week's Mark As Read, @mollytempleton.com discusses reading as a lifelong habit:

Happy to have an essay from my forthcoming collection up @literaryhub.bsky.social today! "The time a library lends, I suspect, is a little like love: the more it gives away, the more comes back to it in kind."

"How is one to live a moral and compassionate existence when one finds darkness not only in one's culture but in oneself? There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light." - Barry Lopez

They all have a name. They all have a story. They are someone’s son or daughter and have hopes, dreams and aspirations just like you and me. We must judge our society by how we treat the poor and the homeless and on that count we are failing miserably.

Robert, a new portrait from the Outsiders project. He told me he became homeless, together with his friend Rory, when they were evicted from their accommodation after the pandemic. They haven’t been able to find any safe or stable housing since. They have been at the tent encampment for months

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

There is no shame in having let your self care slip a little-- or a lot-- during times you've struggled. Don't lecture yourself. Just take the littlest, least effortful step you can today to get back on track w/ eating, moving & hygiene.

Think "goals" so small they seem silly.

Hey Megyn Kelly,

14-year-old Eloise would like a word:

“If my voice makes you uncomfortable, good…
because the minute adults start defending predators by defending the age of a child, you’re not protecting the truth, you’re protecting the predator.”

Sound up! 🔥🔊

Sade releases her “Promise” LP 40 years ago today.

Of “Sweetest Taboo,” she said:

“.. It’s about a love that feels almost TOO good, the sort of feeling you don’t talk about because it makes you vulnerable. I like writing about that kind of emotion — the danger .. of loving someone that deeply.”
