Back from the first vacation of my life that felt like what I thought vacations would be when I was a kid. This was truly restful in a way I really needed and I’m really grateful to Sarah for setting it up.

Hey, everybody! I've been receiving messages asking what the best way to support me & my work would be. The most efficient & effective way would be through my Patreon account (link below), but sharing it & engaging with it is also very helpful. Thank you! https://www.patreon.com/maklelan

I don’t ever get much engagement on here, which makes it particularly frustrating when I get a notification and it turns out to be a bot account that’s following 50k people. Please consider rate limiting follows @why.bday.team

I’m really proud of my partner and I for getting a one year streak on the NYT crossword. It was a lot of work, sometimes an hour+ on a hard Saturday. I’m not good at forming habits, so this was a major achievement!

If democrats had a “remind me to donate” button I’d click it. I’d love a “Hey, you asked us to remind you. Here’s a sober description of the state of the campaign. Please donate.”
