I will never stop being grateful that I can easily walk at the beach whenever I want.

I loved this. @joannechocolat.bsky.social is one of my favorite authors, and Vianne didn’t disappoint. Right up there with my other faves Chocolat and Five Quarters of the Orange. Joanne narrating is an added dash of magic ✨

After the Ivory Tower Falls connects a lot of dots on this. Recommend. Among other things, he talks about “the great sorting”, and the political impact of it.

Finished this last night. Very good, especially if you’ve read some Didion. Still making my way Through Slouching Toward Bethlehem, but have read Play It As It Lays and The Year of Magical Thinking. Weaves America, Hollywood and Didion’s writing and perspective together well. #Booksky

Seems like a good day to remind folks to read Empire of AI. Lots in here about Data Centers and their impact.

This is making me miss my grandmother. She and I did this a lot. It was good. Now I wish I’d asked her so many questions. We’re so much alike 💕

Well yes, because there is only one ❤️

Still no cygnets. Everyone walking in the area is apparently monitoring and vested. It takes a village 🦢

It was 20 degrees cooler at the beach this evening. Also, swan ruckus.

I recommend Karen Hao’s excellent and well researched book, Empire of AI, to everyone.

This novella, The English Understand Wool, is witty and entertaining. A great one sitting read ☕️ #Booksky 📚

Yes, that is a vintage Rock n Roll Elmo that my grandson plays with and adores in the foreground. Yes, the temp is 82.

This is so sharply written. An absolute indictment of a lifestyle. Just brutal. Similar to Eve Babitz’s Sex and Rage (which I loved), but Didion goes for the jugular. #booksky 📚

Ann Patchett and I are the same age. I’m about 2/3 through this memoirish book of essays, and I can’t tell you how much I love this book. Like I want to call her or fly to Nashville and visit Parnassus Books, that’s how much. It’s so incredibly real and grounding. #Booksky 📚

TFW you’re walking at the beach, and one minute it’s 85 and you’re sweating, and the next the ind shifts and the temp drops 15 degrees. Local girls had a jacket tied around their waists, natch.

What a privilege it is to live near the beach on a sunny spring day ☀️

Sunday evening gratitude ❤️ Spent hours on the phone last night with BFF since we were 4. Spent the morning asking to college roommate/bestie. Walk in the spring sunshine with Frances Ford Pupala. Cooking fave post college struggle meal bc I love it. Find the beauty ❤️

Best thing I’ve read about AI is Empire of AI by Karen Hao. It’s long, but it’s worth it. I did it on audio. She narrates. Recommend. Also, please keep writing your little things.

If I turn on C’est Toi by Satine, my 18 month old grandson will immediately start dancing, so there’s that. I’ll take joy wherever I can find it.
