I am incredibly grateful to @aaronlelito.bsky.social and @wildroofjournal.bsky.social for including my essay “Fear Is a Rabbit” in their summer issue. I’m so proud of this piece, which explores the way we (humans) dispense hurt & what we mean by it. wildroofjournal.com/issue-30-gal...

A Rant: On the American Healthcare System (again). I work in pharma. I am a Compliance person. I have above average knowledge for a healthcare consumer about our healthcare system, including where we interact with insurance plans. So please explain to me WHY I AM STILL CONFUSED AS HELL.

I don’t really know how jumping spider lineage works but every spring I get a coworker in my home office. I like to imagine it’s the same family living here for generations - at least 5 years at this point. #spiders #jumpingspiders

My town is kinda going through it right now - our mayor recently was arrested for a stupid choice. I watched the recording of the public comments from last night's town council meeting and it made me think of this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOKX...

On a solo writing retreat to continue revision on my memoir. Haven't really touched it since the last retreat in January, but Past Rachel left really terrific notes for Today Rachel so I can just right back in. Thanks, Past Rachel!

We will not allow this to become normal. The Trump regime is trying to crush dissent beginning with those who speak out for Palestinian freedom. This is a threat to all who believe in justice. Tell Congress to protect students & demand Mahmoud’s release: bit.ly/freemahmoudnow

In the world of "we need some good news," I subscribed to this Patreon where I get a photo of some nice mushrooms every morning, and then I get a mushroom mailer every month. It's just been such a good decision. @lukelukeluke.bsky.social www.patreon.com/c/luke_venec...

Can anyone tell me in what fever dream literature a character ends up with his eyes pecked out by birds? Pretty sure I didn’t imagine it.

Every season, I say I’m not going to watch Love is Blind, & every season I watch anyway. I know there are a lot of problems with the show but it’s such an interesting sociological study.

Do you need a palate cleanser? This live feed of the Brownville Food Pantry for Deer is amazing. Open only during the winter, this food pantry helps the local deer population survive the Maine winter until healthy browse is available again. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASu9...

Watched the Bryan Johnson documentary Don’t Die on Netflix, interrupted by intense discussions about medical ethics, greed, fear of death and dying, cults, bodily autonomy, and personal legacy. Is it bedtime yet? (p.s., that shit is crazy)
