Koyaanisqatsi isn't quite as haunting if you replace Philip Glass with the music from the Wii Shop Channel.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Go MIT! Major breakthrough. -- A stunning new theory out of MIT suggests our memory capacity may owe more to astrocytes—the brain’s star-shaped support cells—than to neurons alone. Slow slog though, as since the 17th century most science does not even acknowledge or study consciousness.

How odd and invigorating it will be when we all look back and wonder why on earth we were drawn to taking and sharing pictures of ourselves(?!?) when there are a zillion other things far more worth our time. I look forward to it.

I am begging people to actually read some Crenshaw and bell hooks, comprehend intersectionality, and learn why “wealth disparity also creates advantages and disadvantages” doesn’t disprove racial inequity or obviate the need to address it.

The July blooms at night 🎆 Rudbeckia, echinacea, asclepias and a few garlic bulbils.

A wildflower garden on a slope photographed at night. A yellow rudbeckia bloom is the focal point surrounded with various green foliage freckled with splashes of colors from purple echinacea blooms and orange butterfly milkweed blooms. Some gnarly garlic bulbils give off some bright purple pops of color from the camera flash. nativeplants pollinatorgarden flowermeadow wildflowers rudbeckiahirta blackeyedsusan

Anger is a mental storm deeply felt in the body, often masking sadness or fear. Just as it does no good to lash out at the rain, acting out of anger will never make it go away.

Thank you to Christoph Giese from Jazzwise for a great article about our time at the Bergamo Jazz Festival! 🙏🏾 “What a sound painting… there is simply a telepathic understanding between them.” www.jazzwise.com/review/artic...

Pérez/Patitucci/Blade, Joe Lovano, Ravi Coltrane and Enrico Rava make for a beautiful edition of Bergamo Jazz

Bergamo in Lombardy, Italy is a beautiful place. But if Bergamo Jazz is happening with a first class programme, held in spectacular venues, it is even more worth a visit
