We saw @pdxcenterstage.bsky.social's fabulous production of Little Women on Louisa May Alcott's birthday.

I never met Alice Wong in person, but like so many great writers I felt like I knew her - and unlike many, when I emailed she emailed right back. ❤️
Peds neurologist @dianacejasmd.bsky.social has a beautiful essay in Wong's Disability Visibility collection - I recommend it to physicians. #neurosky

For the person who fills the most envelopes - even little envelopes!!! - I will embroider a neuron on an item of clothing that you send to me. We can plan this together. See examples here.
