Black wolf looking straight at the camera. Pine forest behind. Yellow eyes.

We were seeing a 98% drop in exposure over on Twitter. The censorship was so extreme we thought it best to start over somewhere else. We chose Bluesky.

Close up view of the tree at NYPL.  Snow on the evergreen branches and a snowy owl with wings completely outstretched about to fly.  Also pinecones, and a grey bird with a red breast.

Cover of Thursday’s issue which I wrote the cover story for about GisΓ¨le Pelicot as person of the year 2024

Cover of Thursday’s issue which I wrote the cover story for about GisΓ¨le Pelicot as person of the year 2024

On Thursday the 2024 issue of @theneweuropean.bsky.social comes out and they have given me the platform to explain why Gisèle Pelicot is my hero and how she radically changed the conversation about shame and sexual assault
It is my proudest writing.

Birch tree in the foreground with peeling curls of bark.  Snow delicately balanced on the bark peels.  Forest floor covered in snow and dark trees growing in the background.

Weekends in the Woods. Snow clinging to peeling birch trees just captivates me. #birchtree #quiet #snowday #forest #vernont

On this day in 1926, the iconic Bauhaus building in Dessau, designed by Walter Gropius, was inaugurated. A milestone in modern architecture. 🏒 #Bauhaus #Dessau #Architecture

Entryway to townhouse in Brooklyn.  Front reps with decorated railings in pine tree greenery, large clusters of red ornament balls.  Grey building with large wreath on door also encircled with large red ornament balls and big red bow.  Attached house next door is exposed brick.

So far my favorite holiday display in the neighborhood. Contrast of the cool grey, red and greenery. Brooklyn always. #holidaydecor #wreath #colorscheme #design #christmas #brooklyn

The very edge of the forest as the sunrises after the first snow of the season.  Trees touched by snow and the clumps along the branches. The sky peaking through is a yellowish-peach and shimmers against the snow.

Another Thanksgiving weekend favorite. Sunrise through the entryway to the forest. So quiet and peaceful. Cold hands, warm heart. #photography #southernvermont #snow #firstsnowfall #greenmountainstate
