I live in NYC. I love reading. I cannot think of anything not snarky to add.

Roasted butternut squash seeds for the first time yesterday. Patted them dry, drizzled with olive oil, threw on some salt and paprika. Toaster over at 350'F for about 11 minutes. Happy to report they were delicious. Sad to report I have none left.

ICE and assorted local thugs are hitting LA and San Diego (surprise, surprise) hard right now. If you're in the groups being targeted, please take extra care and caution. If you're not, please check in with your local support orgs to see how you can help. ✊🏾💜

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

And it isn't like you know about safe words innately. For those of us who grew up NOT learning the language of consent beyond "No means no", there's a lot of learning ands unlearning to do.

Terrible Air Quality today in NYC due to the wildfire smoke coming from up North. So NYC is giving away free N95s. If you have to be outside, maybe you can pick some up. Here are the locations: #WhenGovernmentWorks www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/v...

Few people ever find a niche passion that intersects with a niche talent and at an age when they’re unapologetic about both. Before the world says “you should be embarrassed.” He’s gonna end up being a world renowned ornithological researcher or educator.

Somerville needs more households to try free curbside food waste collection
This past fall, newcomers joined the trash day lineup in East Somerville: Bright green, top-latching bins, perched on curbs next to the trash, recycling and yard waste receptacles. They’re vessels for the city’s food waste collection pilot program, which has been running in the neighborhood since October....

Set up for second seder complete! Pleased to report there is enough charoset.
A dining room table set for Passover seder. A tablecloth with Hebrew expressions. Each place has a plate with an egg, parsley, charoset, radish slices, and horse radish. On the table are bottles of wine, candles, wine glasses, water glasses, kiddish cups, a seder plate, and various other tablery. There's a guest book.  On each chair is a haggadah and a green songsheet.

It’s been reported locally, but I’m not sure how much national notice this has gotten. As part of this invasion by shithead goons, they are putting ICE agents in jetbridges and other parts of the airport at Minneapolis-Saint Paul. If you are flying Delta via MSP, you are putting yourself at risk.
