My mom’s annual “home for the holidays” email to me and my siblings just dropped. An incredibly thorough, detail-rich look ahead at how it’s possible for me to gain 15 lbs in one week.

Graphic design is my passion.
A screenshot of a text message thread with my exhausted boss. It reads: Boss: Before you log off, we need to tweet a reminder about Labor Day Fire Safety. Me: Prevent these flames or we'll call you names. Boss: Not this again. Me: Watch your pile or we'll get hostile. Me: Illegally start a fire? Your situation'll get dire! Boss: Can you please just make a cute graphic or something? Me: On it.

A teen who hadn’t been in for years was in the library today. Neither of us recognized each other. Then she squinted and asked if she could see me without the mask. When I took it off she gasped, threw her arms around me and said “I used to come here FOR YOU!” excuse me while😭

I had a giddy-happy-then-sad experience attending a conference. I saw that a young postdoc had the most amazing live captions for her talk. Not the usual run-on buggy stuff with auto-recognition. Not because anyone asked her to. But she wanted access-for-all….. – at Fairport, NY

Now that I’m on the other side of Paxlovid, I’m ready to share that I’m still recovering from COVID. I was terrified to say anything, fearing that I was somehow a failure after 2+ years of not getting sick. But it’s not a personal failure. It’s a cultural and political one.

"For Native Americans, there can be no better remedy for the theft of land than land. And for us, no lands are as spiritually significant as the national parks. They should be returned to us. Indians should tend—and protect and preserve—these favored gardens again."
