As the world turns: Dunkin’s reintroduced the French cruller just as Local Donut wound down its weekly deliveries.
Like a lost lover returned from the grave
Arrived a week early for my planned photo shoot and don’t want to waste the outfit so here you go!

Adventures in playing the odds:
This $2 piece of paper was potentially worth $272M yesterday is now worthless today 🤦🏻♀️
Toxic positivity, be damned, Herman Hesse reminds us that true optimism is not the denial of suffering. It is the will to perceive beauty amidst the suffering, and to conceive compassion despite suffering: “because the world is so full of death and horror I try again and again to console my heart and pick the flowers that grow in the midst of hell“

It’s naive to think our work speaks for itself and a strong resume is a key to success—especially if you are a woman or person of color. Or both.
Implicit biases, internalized misogyny, racist practiced and other invisible obstacles still exist
Local elections matter. I’m watching Montpelier’s District 2 race

Honestly, I don’t think I’d ever listened to any of Rep. Balint’s speeches all the way through. There were some teary eyes in the room after this. Some of us really, really needed to hear it.

Donuts: not rocket science, but a better human existence with them than without
23.01.2025 12:07 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Remember that art is resistance. To create something true and earnest in a world that values neither sincerity nor conviction is rebellion. If that’s all you can manage, so be it. Fill your notebooks with revolt, your document files with illicit beauty. Hope is a Molotov cocktail.
