For those who need to know (which includes certain astronomers): "sand" as a term in geology is not based on composition. It is a term based on the size of the clasts. Here is the Wentworth scale we use to demarcate the names of the different size classes.

Goodnight from Alice Hawes, suddenly able to read the sky’s stars as a vow of devotion to a god so ancient it’s beyond language’s memory. Goodnight from Tobe Cracken, listening to the shadows promising to show him wonders if he’ll just step outside the pub. Goodnight from Hookland.

I spent the evening outside the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis, where the feds have been releasing people they detained — often for no discernible reason — into the freezing cold... wearing whatever little clothing they had on at the time they were taken.

This could have been written this morning. How exact and how applicable every word is. "Stealing the livery of the court of heaven to serve the devil in." No better description exists of the blasphemous, murderous, corrupt America of Trump and of ICE.

I'm uninterested in rehabbing the career of someone who thinks throwing people in camps is fine as long as they aren't citizens. The people who say they didn't vote for this because what they actually voted for was to hurt wveryone else. My tent is big but not that big.

They know what they say is untrue, they do not care it is untrue.
The media know that what they repeat is untrue, they do not care it is untrue.
Their supporters know what they are told is untrue, they do not care it is untrue.
Telling the truth is not enough, unless people care about the truth.

Today I learned “Norwegian Christian laws forbade citizens from conversing with and interacting with trolls, and in documents dating from 1274 to 1781, doing so would result in severe punishment” (source: Wikipedia), and I kinda think many people nowadays would be better off if this law was revived

I'm excited to announce I'm doing a new Bloomberg column about the business of fashion. The first column is about how we can re-shore US garment manufacturing. Instead of mass deportations and raising tariffs, I argue the government should move the industry upstream:

"My husband complains about the cold," the man said. "Can you teach me a spell to keep him warm?"
"I can teach you to bind hair into a net to catch heat," the wizard said, "using arcane counting and a pair of fine wands."
After a while, the man said "Isn't this knitting?"

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain.
A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones.
The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...
