Food Delivered With Dignity
In the current environment we need to raise a $7,000 a day to sustain our operations
One small thing you can do today: ICE is ramping up in Maine. Food For All is delivering meals to 300 families that can't leave their homes. They need $7k a day to continue operations. The Culture Study community is raising enough to cover a day—join us?

Support Minneapolis Daycare Workers
Contribute mutual aid to the educators and caregivers who love and care for our children everyday
One small thing you can do *right now* — donate $5, $10, $50, whatever you're able — to this rent fund for South Minneapolis daycare workers whose families are sheltering in place. Can we raise $5k today??
Whatever you can give matters. And if you can't give, can you share?

New Year's Day at-home screenings: The Family Stone, 8/10. Diane Keaton is luminous, Sarah Jessica Parker is annoying (designedly so), chaotic large family energy is both glorious and enervating, and the set designer who put that house decor/chaos together should win everything.

Lovely Naked Laziness
Musing on Neruda's Ode to Laziness

I didn't think about social media when I wrote this post and chose those words from the poem. But having the word naked in there is probably good...something something online engagement something, right?
