I love the intersection between poetry and science.
Here we have the physics of the heart balancing between knowing and unknowing, love and loss, presence and disappearance.
Every line hums with quiet wonder and the ache of trying to hold what won’t stay still.

Amazing 🧵. I freaking love @dieworkwear.bsky.social.
A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.
He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

I love the way each of the six baby crocodiles in this photo seems to have a completely distinct personality.

By the mid-1970s, only 200 American crocodiles remained, their habitat largely gobbled up by sunseekers. But hope lurked in the shadows of a nuclear power plant—the same facility built to air-condition the homes that had led to the reptiles’ demise. Read more about this unlikely partnership:

American crocodiles are booming in Florida, thanks to a little help from a nuclear power plant.

A thousand times this 👇
The Walton family (who own Walmart) are worth over $400 billion, yet many of their employees are on SNAP.
Bezos is worth over $400 billion, many Amazon employees require SNAP.
The people who need help are not the problem.
It’s corporate greed. It’s an unwillingness to pay a living wage.

If you have people in your life who you suspect may be food insecure, don’t wait for them to ask for help and don’t make a big thing of it. Find excuses to feed them on the regular and give them dignity. Especially in front of their kids.

The final scene from The Natural seems like the appropriate way to say goodbye to the icon that is Robert Redford.
