I just got back from the Middle East. What I saw made clear that Trump and Hegseth aren’t telling the American people the full story about the cost and damage of this war. Here are my four biggest takeaways.

I know the feed is bleak, but please have a brand new lamb picture. I wasn’t expecting this one, and he might be a premie, but his mom is great and he is eating well.

Cranes in Kushiro-shi, Hokkaido Prefecture, Japan. Photography by Toru Kona on 500px

Standing side-by-side upon a blanket of pristine Hokkaido snow in Kushiro, a pair of red-crowned cranes (tancho) throw their beaks to the winter sky in a synchronized, trumpeting courtship duet. Their arched necks and gleaming crimson crowns (tan) project a striking graphic silhouette, their jet-black secondary feathers fanning outward like flared kimono sleeves against their snow-white plumage. In the soft-focus background, another crane stands in quiet witness across the frozen field. The photograph captures an electrifying, elemental sensory experience: the piercing, clarion bugle of their call echoing across sub-zero wetlands, steam condensing instantly into mist from open beaks, the dry rustle of wind-ruffled plumage, the blinding glare of winter light reflected off fresh powder, and the sharp, freezing bite of northern air settled over the marsh. Captured in Kushiro-shi, Hokkaido, by photographer Toru Kona, this scene celebrates Japan’s most sacred avian icon in its ancestral winter sanctuary. Known to the indigenous Ainu people as Sarurun Kamuy (God of the Marsh), the red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis) has long endured as a cornerstone of Japanese cultural iconography, symbolizing longevity, good fortune, and marital fidelity due to its lifelong pair-bonding. From Heian-period court textiles and Edo-period gold leaf screens (byōbu) by masters like Ogata Kōrin to modern heraldry and ceremonial origami, the crane’s posture is woven into the nation's visual heritage. Once feared extinct in Japan during the early twentieth century, a small resident population was rediscovered in the un-freezing spring-fed reed beds of Kushiro Marsh and saved through decades of local community winter-feeding programs.

This video of a Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) was taken by Sondre Eriksen Hensema (@itseriksen on IG). There are 4 species in genus Lynx & what's striking is that 2 of them are in North America, 2 in Eurasia... but the lynx line originates in Africa. Let's learn more about these right-sized kitties.

I absolutely will not go into detail (seriously), but that is a barely healed over scab in NM.

Came back bc Prof. Ha's work was close to mine--his new project was on blackness and Indian Ocean Islam. I had a series of negative interactions with him after Oct. 7, read the room, and quietly added him to my blocklist, non-reviewers list, and refused requests to give feedback on his writing...

The “discomfort” white people feel when we discuss race is an inheritance that was taught to them. Teaching children to become complicit in the horror of enslavement and segregation is horrible too. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a masterpiece b/c it tells that story of that negotiation.

@beaubaumann.bsky.social is right: everyday, until the supposed day of public execution, is a struggle over the message. I would add two things: First, when I say that the Civil War taught us No Kings, No Masters, this is what I mean. The master had sovereign authority over the plantation.

My mom is excruciatingly left handed. One of her first teachers kept putting her writing instrument in her weight hand to the point where she started stuttering. My grandfather went in and gave that teacher holy hell (early 1940s).

For better or worse, the classroom atmosphere in my upper level courses seems to encourage very honest venting from students about all manner of things within earshot of me as I prep before class, drive the van for field trips, etc.

I’m ok for now. But pharmacy fuck ups and drug delays are getting to be the norm, not the exception.

Ossoff and El-Sayed took different tacks tonight vs their opponents—El-Sayed was more of a subtext of “you dumb fucking racist jackass” while Ossoff’s was more “if you fell down at a gas station I’d toss a lit match on you”—and I don’t think either of those is a bad choice tbh

Jeez @heinrich.senate.gov what are you doing? Listen to @riogranderift.bsky.social who "said the changes reflect the “greatest attack on our bedrock environmental laws in U.S. history.”" You have your constituents baffled with your support of extinction of wildlife and destruction of sacred sites.
