The reality of the coming decimation of what little federal funding exists for humanities research, coupled with the extant retreat of private foundations from funding such research, is that doing the work will soon be possible only at a few wealthy institutions.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.

Today in Japan, if you're from Kanto and practice Shinto, is the Festival of Broken Needles.
Women of the house gather the tiny, broken household things, (like needles)and place these in a shrine or on an altar, as gratitude of how they make everyday life easier, run smoothly.

Tonight's history lesson:
Amid all the concerns raised about our current state of constitutional chaos, a few points deserve special mention.
Much of the constitutional thinking of the American revolutionary era had its deep origins in the political disputes of 17th-c. England.

Gregg Bordowitz: There: a Feeling

"'Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity,' writes Simone Weil in Gravity and Grace (published posthumously in 1952). 'Attention, taken to its highest degree, is the same thing as prayer. It presupposes faith and love.' This is a show of immense gravity and grace, faith and belief."
