Went to the Ladies’ Room in a beautiful 1920s building that has few tenants. Lovely oak door, engraved brass doorknob, nicely tiled floor. On the door of the stall: “Ladies, please take a peek back and see if everything is flushed away. If not, please press the red button.”

I want to beg teachers and professors to bring back reading plays and stories aloud in class. It’s real, real-time, and different people *hear* different things in the text and are eager to discuss their takes. Empathy is imbedded in this work.

None of us can top E.B. White on this argument
“Third, there is the New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something. Of these three trembling cities the greatest is the last--the city of final destination, the city that is a goal. It is this third city that accounts for New York's high-strung disposition, its poetical deportment, its dedication to the arts, and its incomparable achievements. Commuters give the city its tidal restlessness; natives give it solidity and continuity; but the settlers give it passion.”

-E.B. White, "Here is New York"

I hate it when people correct typos and punctuation and grammatical errors in individual skeets, and try not to be that pedant. But I am daunted by the onslaught of misused apostrophes (apostrophe’s), e.g., Aaron Rodger’s.

It's implied in the conversation, but I want to make it explicit. From the Lincoln Memorial to Arlington Cemetery is a hard-won road of peace, both historically and symbolically. Donald Trump wants to convert it to war, as he does everything he touches.

this renaming is horrifyingly stupid, and this idiocy reinforces how irrational it is. The shoreline of Lake Erie is ca 870 miles, and PA’s share of it is 63 miles, so ca 13%?

MZ2 - From Judy Schmidt (geckzilla.bsky.social) - flic.kr/p/fLHuep
This one almost escaped my attention. Scrolling through the archive, I spotted a faint blue formation on one of the PC chips. Planetary nebula ho! There wasn't a lot of data for it--only two wide band filters were used. However, what was there had a good signal, so I'm happy. Still, I can't help but wonder what might lurk in the world of emissions... perhaps not much. Perhaps that's why it wasn't collected. Or maybe there's a vast and intricate pattern in there somewhere, kind of like NGC 5189, which it looks somewhat similar to.

Anyway, it's pretty big so this is only the center of it. Makes me wonder what the age of it is relative to the others. One thing that's hard about PN's is trying to figure out how far away they are. If you don't know how far away they are, you can't tell how big they are. Given the number of stars in the field, my guess would be that this is a pretty large structure.

I’m worried. The July jobs report was much worse than expected: 23,000 jobs lost and 100,000 erased from the previous two months. There are statistical quirks here. But there’s also a real signal: the labor market has less momentum than we thought. newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/the-july-j...
