Garden update! The plants survived the move and this is the harvest so far. We had them for the first time in the morning on German bread with cream cheese. Really tasty. I could not have done it without my little assistant ❤️

Excited about this but still wish we could have had the Adam Guettel version that never came to light. Happy it is coming here to #Chicago!

@Kaution

That is fair. What I had in mind was all of these schlocky B movie horror films stating newly released public domain characters.

Can’t wait for this Mickey to enter public domain for the inevitable “Godzilla vs Mickey” film. The original film here from 1934 sounds bonkers.

I sometimes wonder what will happen to the BJP after Modi. I feel like there is really no one on the wings. That it what happens when you make a cult of personality - it all begins to fall apart once the leader is gone.

I went to stay in Noida in February to visit family and I saw Yogi everywhere. Trying to emulate Modi in branding but it comes off as forced. Plus Modi's people don't like him so they try to undermine Yogi when they can.

Am packing to move to another part of the area and found this. Hurts a bit harder than I thought it would. Sigh. May we all be cursed to live in interesting times.

Thinking about a career change but feeling like I need to start off small. Very small.

@wtrmt @skinnylatte Was just about to say that! 😂

@andrew773 Precisely on everything! I also find that cappuccinos and lattes - in addition to being overpriced - often come out warm not hot. I think it a style in some places.

I am pretty American in that I usually prefer getting a drip coffee outside the house versus an espresso, cappuccino, or latte.

My one exception is a good cortado. I first had one in Spain when I walked the Camino in 2016. They just hit the spot when you need a good, strong coffee l. It feels like a little moment of peace.

@georgiamuseum I grew up near Lake George!

@Paulatics Wonderful essay. The LOTR metaphor was particularly inspired!

@timkmak I find this guy grating but I will hand it to him that he has a way of talking in terms of exchange and transaction with a bit of dramatic flair that people on the current US administration would be attracted to.

Earth scientists reviewing satellite imagery have found devastating clues: geomorphologists Kristen Cook & Dan Shugar say the bedrock beneath the glacier appears to have collapsed, taking a massive section of ice with it, sending boulders & ice crashing into the valley.
It is not yet over.
Nepal is facing yet another terrifying warning at the same disaster site. 469 confirmed deaths. Search & rescue operations halted as water levels continue to rise as a dam on the Tibetan side has burst again.

I really like this idea. Speaking of both #Regrowth and #Degrowth gives a more positive and balanced framing that might bring more people in. This more positive valence (the world we have to gain rather than only what we are giving up) is one of the reasons I like #Solarpunk.

For @skinnylatte and all the other Hedgeheads here…
