I appreciate the sentiment here, but it is only honest to say that the United States will never be the same again. The U.S. that led the world in scientific research in so many disciplines is done. It may be possible someday for some to be rebuilt, but why would any other country trust us again?
This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again.

I felt like making some art last night/today and could have made something beautiful and/or meaningful but I made this instead.

It's a Barbie Yaga Malibu Dream Hut.

Now, more than ever, check out a novel from your public library, get yourself some snacks, and READ for pure joy. You deserve it.

Everything is really scary and horrible, and on the utter flipside, we made these really adorable valentines.

The dissonance of seeing horror, then posting "hey buy some cute valentines" is making me feel loopy.

But also nice things persist despite terror? Ugh idk.

This bobtail squid burrowing into the sand is already adorable, but please watch till the very end!

It sticks out its little arms and earnestly sprinkles sand over itself 🦑𓂃◌𓈒𓐍

Isn't it neat that for nearly all humans (and other beings who use the stars) on our planet, we all share a common intrigue or even sense of pattern matching at some point in our lives, with the constellation Orion.

It's like a connection between humans who have looked up over all of time.
-7 degrees Fahrenheit in the Uintah Mountains of Utah. It was worth it. Met an elk, and a fox. Found what I came for.

I'm entirely serious about this: until you internalize the view that urban America is Real America, you won't see the urgency of structural reform of an American government whose fundamental structures so disadvantage its population centers—the great engines of its prosperity, progress, & culture.
Another good practice for the New Year would be for all the non-fascists in America who want to opine about politics to really begin believing that urban America is Real America & that its denizens are The Authentic People. Get some self-respect & drop the volkish nationalist view that they're not
And I think liberals should stop taking the bait and ceding ground on immigration.

Immigration is good. Multiculturalism is good. Free trade is good. Stop being embarrassed to say so.

I’ve been frustrated for at least a year because I want to read and just can’t focus on words on a page. I finally, somehow, broke through my inability to focus on audiobooks and it’s unlocked something. It’s such a relief.

Here’s hoping it sticks and I’ll get lots of knitting and listening done.
