Finally got rid of the bedside light with a halogen bulb that nearly burned me multiple times. Replaced it with a little LED model. I believe this is known as cold lampin’.

I am thrilled to share that the incredible @ddelgadovive.bsky.social has written an extraordinary guest post over at Life is a Sacred Text on the claim we hear sometimes about Jews being Indigenous.

It’s one of the most thoughtful things I’ve read in a while—and so worth your time.

I didn’t design this but I’m super proud of it (and of course, of Sheryl Kaskowitz ). A CHANCE TO HARMONIZE drops Tuesday, April 2, at a bookstore near you!

And if you’re near us, you should totally come to the launch event Wednesday at Mrs Dalloway’s in Berkeley. More info at sherylkaskowitz.com

Books designed to be read only by human eyes are different from books designed to be read by machines, which is why Google will tell you that the phrase “shake my booty” can be found in an 1863 English translation of Don Quixote.
