I tried to remember this poem but only could come up with impressions of how it made me feel. Eventually I remembered part of it was about sharing a large fruit with coworkers — so glad I could track it down with my feeble google search.

The Orange, by Wendy Cope ♥️
At lunchtime I bought a huge orange. The size of it made us all laugh. I peeled it and shared it with Robert and Dave, they got quarters and I had a half. And that orange, it made me so happy, as ordinary things often do. Just lately. The shopping. A walk in the park. This is peace and contentment. It’s new. The rest of the day was quite easy. I did all the jobs on my list, and enjoyed them and had some time over. I love you. I’m glad I exist.

“WHO’S GOO??!!”
Some pastor or priest or something (black clothes, white collar) on Twitter wrote “God’s not real” on his Starbucks cup and tried to act like the barista did. His handwriting is terrible and large and the word God looks like Goo.

Dallin H. Oaks’ grandson and Ballet West Music Director Jared Oaks was recently on a podcast talking about coming out as gay.

(Dallin Oaks is a top leader in the Mormon church; a heartbeat away from being CEO.)

“And my grandfather [Dallin H. Oaks] apparently offered to speak to me, but it would have to be confidential. …I said, ‘If he has any questions, he can ask me,’ and she said, ‘He doesn’t need your help to understand anything.’ And after my grandpa knew that I’d come out, I noticed that the negative messages about LGBTQ issues increased.” —Jared Oaks, Dallin H. Oaks’ grandson, on coming out as gay
