Remember that site 12 things or 6 things (can’t remember it was 20 years ago), where you just listed 6 things you wanted to do in life and you could look at other people’s lists. So sweet.
Bravo lawyer and bravo 404.

Love this movie
2 different worlds: 1 where people are getting bombed and dying and 2 where we go about our business. Why was I unproductive today? Why uneasy? Why graspy? That’s why.
I am only watching The Pitt. What do you recommend on there?

This rules. I love how delighted they all look!

A video from board-certified ophthalmologist a @glaucomflecken.bsky.social - FYI if you ever get pepper spray somehow onto you, in some manner.
This guy gets it.
If you're not in the competitive dance world you've probably never heard of teacher/choreographer Molly Long but I need you all to watch this teen jazz small group number because it is incredible.
OMG I have to say I loved this movie. Crazy.

The 404 article made me LOL.

One of the best parts of my job is meeting and talking with new librarians about the realities and joys of their work. 🙌🏼🎉📚
2026 Book 8: Fearless Heart by Pema Chodron - Reminders I need all the time. 5 directions.
2026 Book 7: [Redacted] by [Redacted] - It’s difficult until it isn’t. Then it’s simple until it isn’t. Our higher purpose is to be of service to others who suffer. Our compassion can be a powerful force for good.
That's 100% why I created leavesubstack.com -- got tired of re-hashing the points; wanted to make a simple 1-pager.
2026 Book 6: Bread of Angels, by Patti Smith - I will return to this book when I need to be reminded what it means to be human and to feel the beauty of our experience.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

A comic in black/white/blue. Lucy rolls her bike through an alley, by a crew building a fence. Narration: My neighbors hired a crew to rebuild their fence. Crew member: "Do you need us to move our stuff out of the way?" Lucy: "Oh! No, you're all good, thanks!" Lucy: "Have a good one!" Crew member: "You, too!"
Narration: I was teaching when my phone started lighting up with alerts from the rapid response network and neighbor chat. Lucy's back is to us as she shows a group of enthusiastic children something on a notebook. Behind her, her phone in her bag is buzzing. Narration: By the time the lesson was over, they were already gone. Lucy is reading messages on her phone. Messages: Alert: black SUV Sighting: be on alert for... Confirmed abductionL alley between ----- and ----. SUV plates... We tried to get them inside, but it was too... ...Contacting an I.R. lawyer. Heading to Broadview later today.
Lucy is riding her bike home. Narration: On the ride home, I kept thinking "If I'd been there, could I have warned them? Would my ICIRR* training have helped?" *Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. Get trained and know your rights at ICIRR.org. Narration: I'd taken the training after Halloween, when the violent ICE raids had locked down our schools and driven our neighbors indoors. (Image of a halloween bucket in the shape of a jack-o-lantern) Narration: Halloween is fun here-- The community filling the streets and opening our doors to one another. But this year's was tense, frightened and subdued. Haunted.
Lucy is standing in the alley, staring at the newly built fence. Narration: When I got home, it was all done. The other two guys who had gotten inside in time stayed and finished the build. The new fence is superimposed with the brief exchange from earlier in the comic ("Have a good one" You, too") Narration: I see it every day and think about how those guys built this in the spot where strangers in masks took their friend. Narration: How many other places in our communities are similarly haunted? (Drawings of sidewalks, buildings, streets and windows)
