I swear, our neighbors must look at my work calendar, see when I have my most important client events, and schedule their noisiest lawn care services accordingly. All day hedge trimming when I have to host a virtual conference? Check. World’s loudest leaf blowers during an executive session? Check.

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

Matt sued Trump once, and won. Now he’s running for Congress to take him on again, because Mainers can’t afford politicians who sell us out.

My wife bought me a Dwarf Lab Astro telescope camera thingy for Christmas and I brought it on our trip to Nova Scotia last month. There are so many stars you can BARELY see Cassiopeia, OMG the Milky Way, and that dashed line in the upper right corner is a plane headed to Europe…. Unbelievable.
