This episode of Slate's What Next podcast features an interview with Dr. Bruce Murray, a doctor who provides care for the homeless population of Grants Pass, OR. The end made me cry, both for the harshness of unhoused life and the kindness of those who help.

I ran an impromptu game of Magical Kitties Save the Day! on Roll20, for one youngster, her parents, and my husband. Fun times, and a request from the youngest player for more episodes!

Great Washington Post nostalgia study. Adults think U.S. society was historically nicest and comfiest—most moral and close-knit, families happiest—whenever they happened to be little kids, and culture (music, movies, TV, fashion, sports, food) best whenever they were adolescents. wapo.st/3WXd9xS

I just finished Black AF History, by Michael Herriot. If you have a paid Spotify account, you get it free as an audio book read by the author, and it’s even better. I cannot recommend it enough.
