Even though this book is a bit of a tome, I wish it were around 500 pages longer. Loved it! Wanted to revel in Emily Danforth's magical sapphic horror/comedy/satire for days. It has illustrations! Like a Dickens novel--pen & ink. It's all very satisfactory. Try it. #booksky📚💙 #books💙

Meet Polo--he used to be my mom's cat, and he now resides quite happily in Visalia, CA. We were reunited when I evacuated--reunited with delight on my side, and polite disinterest on his. So it goes.

Feeling proud to be an Episcopalian. I don't advertise my status as a Christian, because, well, most people think Christians are insane, intolerant fundamentalists wielding burning crosses. But not all of us are like that. See example below.

Happy Caturday, everybody. Maisie and I are hunkered down in Central California, having evacuated from LA. Mais found a good spot to survey her new kingdom...#cats #catsofbluesky #catpics

I'm safe--got out of LA yesterday. Thinking of all my friends and loved ones who are in town and facing uncertain futures.

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.
