Almond cake with star anise plum compote last weekend. Star anise is really lovely with almond. I’ll have to try this fig almond cake - sounds incredible.

It's World Homeless Day, and I'll just say: Homelessness isn't some great unsolvable mystery. People are homeless because they don't have homes. This suffering persists not for lack of solutions, but because enormous wealth and power are invested in maintaining the very structures that produce it.

That's right. That man isn't leaving the White House and he's gonna use every ounce of power he has. And I don't mean legal power. Everyone desperately hoping/believing that checks and balances and the law will save us, take a look at ICE. Nothing they do is legal but it hasn't stopped them at all

NEW: The head of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a statement firmly condemning plans to livestream the execution of Nidal Malik Hasan. Archbishop Paul Coakley calls the decision “a barbaric promotion of a culture of death and must be reconsidered.” www.usccb.org/news/2026/us...

READINGS
WASHINGTON - Yesterday, the U.S.
Department of War announced that the firing squad execution of Nidal Hasan, the man convicted of killing 13 people and injuring 32 at Fort Hood, Texas in 2009, would be publicly livestreamed. Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued the following statement sharply condemning the decision of the U.S. government:
"It is with shock and great sorrow that I have learned of the Department of War's decision to publicly livestream the execution of Nidal Hassan. Our God is the God of life. In no way can Hassan's actions be condoned but this decision is a barbaric promotion of a culture of death and must be reconsidered. The word of God exhorts us: 'do not repay anyone evil for evil' (Romans 12:17). The public execution even of one who has done grave harm will only further undermine the moral fabric of our nation and be a blight on the conscience of its people.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

This is Nazi rhetoric, full stop. It's not only a call to instigate a race war in the United States, but it's reminiscent of historic European justifications used to incite pogroms against Jews. People who say things like this are incredibly dangerous, as there is nothing they won't eventually do.

This by Courtney Maum is where I am too. I am grateful to her for the words...

For me, the subject of AI detection is an ouroboros. I’ll speak only for myself, here is my opinion. I didn’t ask for artificial intelligence. It’s not something I need, it is not something I desire. And yet, it barged its way into my life and stole all of my books. All of them. Stole them. Trained off of them. Did not compensate me for this theft. So now, AI can write a book like me, because it stole my own work and learned my breed of humor and satire. So if someone runs an AI text detector on my creative output, it will probably “test positive” why? Because AI is a contaminant that has embedded itself into my work by stealing it and using my own work to perpetuate itself. It will test for itself and find AI there because it AI is a virus that has contaminated the DNA of my current and future writing—a form of intellectual rape. A kind of colonization. A raging plague that some gatekeepers are opening the door for.

If you ask me what I’m currently working on, the answer is nothing book-length. I’m not going to publish a new book in this current landscape. That’s a stance of privilege, I recognize that. And I can’t hold this stance forever, I can hold it as long as I have savings from my last book.

This current literary climate isn’t acceptable. It is not acceptable to have a thing thrust upon us that takes absolutely everything, and then be forced to prove that we are not the thieves.

The Trump administration just suspended Microsoft from sponsoring green cards, claiming it laid off 6,000 Americans while getting 6,300 H-1B approvals. Essentially this is the government saying tech companies will be penalized if they lay off Americans over foreign workers. It’s finally happened.

BREAKING: Judge Sorokin upholds magistrate judge's order requiring discovery to be produced by the Trump administration in Kseniia Petrova's vindictive prosecution claim, among other discovery and grand jury instructions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Because the government has identified no legal or factual error in Judge Dein's analysis
of Petrova's entitlement to discovery concerning vindictive prosecution— and because the record and the law plainly support her conclusion in the circumstances presented the government's third and final parry fails.
Accordingly, the government's appeal (Doc. No. 63), ably briefed by both parties, is
DENIED. The parties shall meet and confer and shall notify the Court by October 23, 2026, whether a further ruling is needed as to the scope and timing of the discovery to be produced
pursuant to Judge Dein's order, affirmed in full here. If so, those issues shall be raised before
Judge Dein at the final status conference, presently scheduled for November 30, 2026. See Doc.
No. 84.
SO ORDERED.
