Let's come back to that after the holidays.

People are really working through their feelings about Chapel Hill's new leaf collection policy - Triangle Blog Blog A group civics blog covering town council, education, transportation, and recreation in Chapel Hill and Carrboro, NC.

I love, love, love hyper local news/politics/goings on. Chapel Hill made a big change this year for leaf collection requirements. People are feeling things 🍂. @triangleblogblog.bsky.social is on the case: triangleblogblog.com/2025/11/01/p...

also! if you like someone's letter they wrote, go tell them! It's hard to get feedback on all these letters we write aside from whether our candidates get jobs/positions/promotions.

it's letter writing season in my field. Just my opinion here, but write your recommendation letters the way you'd want to read them. I get so bored with such standard, dry letters from recommenders. It's hard work, but tell us the story behind why we should be enthusiastic about your person!

local news. we need more support for our local news sources.

my newborn and my toddler are both napping at the same time for the first time, and maybe this is nirvana?

reminder, big corporations and brands don't love you. they love your money. happy pride. =)

I grew up in the western foothills/southern piedmont of NC. As soon as I saw the news of Helene, I knew the devastation in these small towns just to our north was inevitable. This is the one of the best pieces of journalism I have read in recent memory. incredible, heartbreaking stories. read this.

I am so fortunate to be supported by the incredible Foundation of Hope in North Carolina. FOH pledged to raise 5 Million dollars in 5 years to support the Child and Adolescent Anxiety and Mood Disorders Program in UNC Psychiatry. It only took 2.5 years: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_T9...

it's particularly cruel to be cancelling training series grants from NIH. Those training years were some of my most uncertain, and the training grants (F, K series) provided stable funding at the time. We will be losing tremendous scholars because of this.

Conversion therapy is ineffective, dangerous, and linked with suicide attempts. Don’t ever let them tell you otherwise.

What a week, huh?™️
