- Amazing to see variation in bloom times around the US and the world for the same flowers I grow in Rochester. Magnolias a month ahead of Rochester. Peonies a month and a half ahead. Irises. Fully leafed-out trees. It feels so early here but it's all about perspective. Elsewhere, it's much later.
- Been digging deep into my music library and putting an actual CD in the car stereo. Tori Amos' "Boys for Pele" was one of the most important albums of the 90s for me. Totally spoke to where I was, even with its sometimes abstract lyrics.🖤
- You're here and that's good.🖤
- On another Rochester literary note...
- New episode of WXXI's Connections podcast talks to Rochester arts orgs about abrupt NEA funding cuts. Good perspective from @boa-editions.bsky.social publisher Peter Conners and others. #ROC #NEA #arts www.wxxinews.org/show/connect...
- "Don't get in my way. I will run right over you," new FEMA chief threatens staff. These dudes. I swear.
