I’m in Auburn, California, population 14,000, and I randomly spotted a poster for a Bill Frisell concert here tonight. I haven't seen Frisell live since 1988 (Naked City @ Ravinia, outside Chicago), so apparently it‘s an every-38-years thing for me

Oh, yes. Scenes with extensive sand flats at low tide, karst terrane & a cave with speleothems, steep vertical cliffs composed of bedded limestone, & (one of my favorites) a black-sand beach with dunes & a glacier & lava flow meeting in the background. You'll love it. 🧪🪨⚒️📽️

Super proud of this important impact from our Medical Misconduct investigation about sexual abuse in healthcare settings. Investigation at chicagotribune.com/medicalmisconduct www.chicagotribune.com/2026/06/12/n...

New protections on the way for Illinois patients against sexual abuse, misconduct by healthcare workers

A 2024 Chicago Tribune investigation exposed how healthcare systems failed to protect patients from abuse and state government failed to hold them accountable.

When we hear a piece of music we don’t like, this is an opportunity to explore what it is within us that’s denying that enjoyment, and then to work on that, to help facilitate more overall enjoyment.

Scott Adams the man is gone, but the idea of the man, the thing he stood for above all others, is alive. Anywhere someone is fucking up their successful professional lives not due to middling talent or performance but entirely because of their awful personality and beliefs, Scott is there, too.
