Urgent: Help free Wagner, a beloved community member + asylum seeker, detained by plain-clothed ICE agents outside his Manhattan hearing on 10/6. Despite his lawyer’s objections + his family’s cries, he’s now held at Delaney Hall.

We report: the sun leaks into the sky, and we find its echoes in the clouds for a long time after. We hear the hiss of high voltage arcing as we watch, and we wonder if some turning off and back on is in order. Some of the troubleshooting pages are missing from the manual.

Digital painting of deep blue sky, half-covered in wispy silver clouds. There is bright iridescence coming up into the frame like flames, all shades of the rainbow, overshadowing the rest of the sky.

Last night’s moon rise, one day after the Full moon. Crater detail is beginning to show along the right edge as the moon enters the waning gibbous phase. The Tycho impact crater is looking down on us 👁️
The dark basaltic flows (lunar maria) are showing nicely. #skysky

A view of the moon one day after the full moon. A slight shadow appears on the right edge and so some craters can be seen on that edge. The Tycho crater with light colored impact rays can be seen towards the lower right of our view.

Highland cattle are famous for their ability to "disco nap". Normally these brief, efficient sleeps will last between three and twenty minutes, deploying a variety of objects as pillows, including moorland boulders, cars or any particularly large dog or sheep who happens to be nearby.

This is Maisie, the aloof resident cat at the nursing home where we recently moved my mother. She hangs out in a library room on her couch covered with fleece and grandma-style crochet blankets. One eye is slightly different color, I think.
