They both talked to a mutual friend first to find out what the other person was bringing
To commemorate years of diplomatic relation—and sure, with an eye to continued trade—France and Mexico exchanged two ancient manuscripts: the Codex Azcatitlán, and the Codex Boturini.

Who else has formed a new daily personal habit in 2026?
Me personally, I've started fixing myself a small bowl of dark chocolate M&Ms every afternoon in 2026.
In it to win it.

I am going to tell you right now that despite all the turmoil and pain we are going to win. Things will get better and the world will become kinder because we will rebuild it that way. We will carry hope and use it to craft a beautiful new gentle world. We are going to win.

There are 242 working days in 2026. If you write just one page a day - just 250-300wds, roughly 5 Bsky posts - you will have two full scripts or a novel by New Years Eve.
If you write just two pages a day - just 500-600 words - you will have five scripts or one epic novel.
Just. Keep. Writing.

IT IS A PUBLIC UTILITY NOT A PRIVATE ENTERPRISE. It is SUPPOSED to be funded by federal tax dollars and operate as an affordable way to send stuff. When perfectly run IT SHOULD NEVER MAKE A PROFIT.
The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

It is more important to create than submit work
to submit work than worry about being published
to publish at all than be too precious about where or when
to have work read than get awards
to be nominated at all than win—
And it is more important to make what you love than never risk failing.

An acquaintance on Facebook has decided, as an amateur in a career far removed from plant biology, that she can identify and possibly eat mushrooms from her backyard, against the advice of +multiple+ people who warned her how dangerous this is.

I rarely swear in the workplace. I've had at least one coworker who thought it was some kind of churchy prude, but the reality is: I'm just not that good at code-switching.
I turned off the swearing when my friends started having kids and it's either that or, just lighting up a blue streak 24/7.

I don't know that I'm figuring out what life is all about as I get older, but I'm definitely getting a handle on what life isn't about.
And mostly it's not about the things I thought it was about 20, 10, or even 5 years ago.

Lessons from a family get-together:
Never offer to take holiday photos of someone with a mild narcissistic streak. That's four hours of your life you'll never get back.
