I love this site, too, Carlotta! I’ve recently joined and still learning how to use it. And I’m also an active STEM advocate and I blog about STEM ideas, tips, and activités at https://www.middleweb.com/category/stem-by-design/ I’d love it if you would share some of your STEM ideas and experiences!

I’ve spent enough time listening to true crime podcasts to grow into someone who couldn’t care less about Ted Bundy but is genuinely curious and cares about victims of those violent crimes, often unidentified.

Laurah Norton is a brilliant writer and has so much insight into this topic!

She has 2! One for fun–One Strange Thing. The other is true crime– well researched stories about the missing & unidentified, many from marginalized communities– The Fall Line. Some of the episodes there background the story told in her 2023 book, Lay Them to Rest. Proud dad! bsky.app/profile/leni...

We are about to be a part of the most vivid and vicious expression in modern times of the richest among us grabbing as much as they can for themselves, no matter how much pain they cause. Out of this must come a renewed and intensified opposition and commitment to the common good.

I thought the article was encouraging. Ches and I are willing to come back to Asheville soon and help the economy out. It's one of our favorite sites to visit.
