Sincerely delighted to discover, 45 minutes into this nearly-wordless three-hour documentary about French monks who take vows of silence, that among the reasons they *can* talk is "to make sure the monastery cats know when it's mealtime by making little kitty-calling noises at them."

Photo of an upright piano and bench tucked into the corner of a room.
After decades without, I have one of these in my life again.
I am ridiculously happy about it.

Iโve seen various posts showing charred pages of text. That this was music made it somehow both more beautiful and sad.

A close-up of a charred fragment of sheet music held in the palm of a womanโs hand.
On Saturday, this floated into my yard. I keep thinking about who it might have belonged to and hoping they are OK.
A friend said to frame it, but it was much too fragile. It crumbled to pieces not long after I took the photo.
It stopped long enough to be seen and remembered. And now itโs gone.

this is kind of a niche issue but: if you are getting weird and hostile responses that feel a little off, there are some folks on here making accounts that automatically reply to large quantities of posts in a vaguely hostile manner. you can ignore them, and also, it's not personal

I should have added this is the sign outside Octaviaโs Bookshelf in Pasadena. Itโs so lovely!
Go. Youโl be happy you did.

A freestanding sign on the sidewalk. White text on a black background reads, โYou just passed a bookstore. Are you OK?โ
This was one of yesterdayโs delights
