I have never done a patreon before or paid for a substack or any of that stuff, because I'm a cheapskate and I'm cranky, too. But I just ponied up for this, because it sounds cool as shit.

Musicians, serious question: when one blows up a balloon, then pinches the hole to get that whistling sound.. would you classify that as a reed aerophone instrument?

Enforce something, anything. Show people the existing frameworks. Hold just one person somewhere accountable for something. Then let’s talk about “novel” solutions.

It’s probably not possible for Americans to appreciate how deeply vigilance and reactivity against American bullying is built into the Canadian psyche. It’s a foundational fact of Canadian life that we live next to a giant that sometimes behaves badly. Yes, we’re all friends, but we watch every move

I’ve canceled my upcoming appointment at Mt Sinai, because they apparently don’t believe trans people deserve health care. Here’s the relevant part of my email

From an email to Mt Sinai:
Greetings,

I’m afraid I must cancel my appointment because of mt sinai’s recent decision regarding trans healthcare.

Like so many people, I am disappointed and frustrated by Mt Sinai’s capitulation to our federal authoritarians. Any organization that will throw my trans friends under the bus will, i have to assume, throw anyone under the bus if asked to. And even if that’s not the case, mt sinai has thrown trans people under the bus!

Trans people are literally under attack in this country, and mt sinai has now joined in the attack. It’s shameful.

Archaeology meets Star Trek! Today, we celebrate Star Trek. Like Star Trek’s spirit of exploration, archaeology encourages us to discover the human past and broaden our global understanding. Happy Star Trek Day! Live long and prosper 🖖 #archaeology #StarTrek #StarTrekDay

Here’s a round you can sing with friends and family. It’s not about anything in particular

Music notation of a round, with the lyrics “maybe it will happen today / one day it will, one beautiful day / and we’ll all party down, dance in the streets”

"My mother made me a scientist without ever knowing it. Every other child would come back from school and be asked, 'What did you learn today?' But my mother used to say, 'Izzy, did you ask a good question today?' That made the difference. Asking good questions made me into a scientist." – I.I. Rabi

Oh speaking of The #Odyssey here’s a round i wrote for a party years ago. (It’s a little hard to learn but once it gets going it’s got drunken sea shanty energy)

Sheet music for round called “Odyssey Odd”.
Lyrics: Oddyseus went on an Odyssey, an Odyssey. Ain’t it strange that Ulysses did not embark on something called, like, The Ulyssey? If Uly-sees then Uly-saw, Odyssey Ulyssey odd.
