Had my sister with her phone along for this morning's outing to the park, so was able to document some of Maude's excellent parkour skills finally. She does seem to love jumping over things.

Mamie's favourite spot to sit and observe Life is in our downstairs hallway. She always sits with her front feet very close to her back feet, and reminds me of the famous Le Chat Noir poster by the Monmartre artist Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, who had an undying passion for cats.

If Linda McMahon and the Department of Education believe in "efficiency and accountability" (after laying off half of the department), then I'm sure they'll gladly publish a list of every position that has been eliminated and why that position is no longer needed.

One of the things we are missing in this moment are positive arguments for institutions. Instead of focusing on what we are losing, we should be building positive accounts for why we need to have liberal arts education, or a robust bureaucratic state. We can't take these arguments for granted
