Wreath refresh day. This weekend I also learned about the grape, Albarin, a nearly extinct indigenous wine grape from Spain. Saved by this winemaker and sold minimally in the US, we are fortunate to have a local wine shop who began selling this varietal. Surprisingly, no relation to Albariño!

I’ll never forget the first time I saw an iPhone after Christmas 2007. My first twitter account came less than 6 months later. I turn 40 this summer. Does anyone remember the music app Lala?!? RIP, I can still feel your algorithms ripple through Apple Music.

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

If you have a grade schooler, maybe throw a couple of extra snacks in their lunchbox this week to give to the teacher, who will know which kids need them.

Do you have gift cards you haven't used that can be used to buy groceries? Grocery stores, WalMart, Target, Amazon (can order to pick up at Whole Foods), warehouse clubs This is a good time to call the social worker at your local school and see if families have need.

Last night, I happened to watch the season 4 finale of Hacks while simultaneously reading the news of The Late Show being canceled. My least favorite version of art imitating life imitating art.

Proud to have marched in Santa Cruz, CA in 2003as a high school student. SC hosted one of the first protests in the country and was THE first city council in the country to formally oppose the war.

If you are too young to remember the Iraq War, you'll hear "no one protested" and "no one knew they were lying." Millions of people knew they were lying and protested. The press not only did not want a record of mass dissent; they did not want a record of mass knowledge of lies.

Transgender youth have been the target of sustained fearmongering, disinformation and legislative discrimination for the last decade. Gender-affirming care is life-saving care. 🏳️‍⚧️ #LGBTQRights #TransRights #ProtectTransKids
