A woman just stopped by my office and gave me a dozen cupcakes and a Bundt cake “just because!” 😦
Shoutout to the Severna Park “Nothing Bundt Cakes” location for their generosity!

Currently reading "Proto: How One Ancient Language Went Global," by Laura Spinney. This one explores the origins & spread of Proto-Indo-European, the ancient language that gave rise to many modern languages across Europe & Asia. I'm liking its interweaving of linguistics, archeology, & genetics!

Did anyone in the 1980s ever watch “Unico in the Island of Magic?" It was Japanese anime featuring a young unicorn named Unico who battles an evil magician named Lord Kuruku, who wants to turn all living creatures into undead puppets. It was super dark for a child to be watching & it was always on!

In my continued quest to read as many of @foreignaffairs.com’s “The Best Books of 2024” as I can, I’ve now moved on to a biography of a man that I have never actually heard of before: Frantz Fanon!
