I just spoke with Capital Area Food Bank CEO Radha Muthiah about how they are preparing for a possible lapse in SNAP funding. She told me that for every meal they provide, SNAP provides *nine*.

"The magnitude of the SNAP program is significant," she says.

Today @mayorbowser.dc.gov says no final decision has been made yet on whether D.C. will cover the cost of SNAP benefits should federal funding lapse this weekend as expected. She's waiting for the outcome of a court hearing on a lawsuit filed by 25 states (including D.C.) on it.

Friendly reminder, if you see someone this Halloween wearing the plague doctor with the bird beak mask costume, you have to ask them what they are supposed to be and if they then say they're a medieval plague doctor... it's your duty to correct them ;)

Surprised Eel Historian, PhD @greenleejw.bsky.social ยท 8h
The trade in Dutch eels to London really got going in the 14th C, & by century's end the Dutch were importing lots of fish.

In 1390, the merchant Henri Sonerson made 4 trips to London, in March, May, June, & Sept. He imported a total of 38,000 salted eels, worth ยฃ24 5s 20d.

Meme. Photograph of an eel underwater, peaking out from a bed of soft, fern-like plants. We'll call her Emmesha. She's dark colored along the top, and light on the bottom and the sunlight dapples her back. She has perky nostrils, and the one eye that you can see is fixed on you, as if it is staring into the abyss and finding that you are staring back. For all that, Emmesha looks generally unconcerned. The gentle curve of her body suggests an ease that is all too uncommon in today's busy world. An eel with a boldly serene outlook. We don't know much about eels' life philosophy. That will likely remain a mystery long after we know all about how and where they breed. But we know they are pilgrims from the deep, and that they change the structure of their bodies several times throughout their lives. They are never who they were, and always who they are about to be. And they seem at peace with that in a way that we can only dream of. Meme text reads: "Not how I wanted to visit London"

This from 2022, I still miss Joe:

Joe MacMahon, Franciscan, Limerickman, Louvainiste, scholar, teacher, friend & great soul died early today 29 October.

We worked together, travelled together, wrote together over many years.

He had the best laughter.

I am reading a novel right in the middle of a series that said it was separate from the main story but it definitely feels like it's part of a main story. I have not read the other books in the series so I'm playing catch up.
