FIRST OF JUNE Night when the south wind wakes the owl and the owl says it is summer now it is time to be summer it is time for that departure though the blanket dates from childhood it is time whoever you are to be going they are older every one of them there is spring no longer this is the south wind you have heard about that brings rain taking away roofs with a breath and a season of grapes in one blind unpredictable moment of hail this is the white wind that you cannot believe here it is and the owl sails out to see whose turn it is tonight to be changed
now it is time to be summer
it is time for that departure
-W.S. Merwin, “First of June”

I am a commissioner at the Federal Trade Commission. Earlier today, the president attempted to illegally fire me. This is corruption, plain and simple. I will see the president in court. My full statement:

One of my favorite poems since childhood, and a poem I share every #autumnequinox.
By the 12thc warrior poet Xin Qiji 辛棄疾, sidelined during peacetime, demoted, drifting through a decade of minor posts in remote lands.
Poetry, then, is that which is left unsaid.
“My, what a cool and lovely autumn.”
Great intro to PAC-Bayes bounds. Highly recommended!

On vacation in Jingdezhen, the capital of Chinese porcelain. Surprised to see a traditional construction of a residential house still in action today in 2024: 100% in wood, from the pillars to the roof slope, no nails, cement or bricks. That’s the art of construction!
