In 2016 I wrote this essay to honor my dad. A truck driver who read A LOT, from Karl Marx to @stephenking.bsky.social, he influenced my interest in reading & writing. Today, under the influence of MAGA, I do not recognize him. The light of curiosity is gone. lithub.com/when-my-fath...

I just improvised an AWESOME lunch. 2 Korean scallion pancakes (frozen) stacked with scallions, bonito, and sweet-spicy sauce drizzled on top. Let’s call it “shortcut okonomiyaki.” I was feeling generous so Amber got some bonito too 😸

This is BAD. My family goes through cases of this brand of tuna in olive oil, and we have 6 of the recalled cans which means we’ve already eaten 6 from that batch 😨 POTUS is going to gut the FDA and install a new HHS leader who will undermine & eliminate protections. We’re on our own 😭😭

Dante described a special place in hell for NYT headline writers, where they experience burning pain but there are no devils, no agents of torment, just weird ‘undercurrents’ like bad smells. Who is torturing them? No one in particular
