Just a reminder that you are doing your best, and that’s more than enough. It’s okay to take it one day at a time.

Happy birthday to the legendary Thelonious Monk, one of the greatest of all time, born on this day in 1917!
He had a unique improvisational style and made numerous contributions to the standard jazz repertoire…
Fun fact: Monk is also the second-most-recorded jazz composer after Duke Ellington.
In this video we see Monk play “Lulu’s Back in Town” live in Denmark in 1966.

The Academy of American Poets has published this poem, and that is a very, very good thing.

Prediction: after Helene and Milton, this is going to be in no small part a climate election.
#HarrisWalz2024 is not perfect on this issue, but they are a hundred times better than #TrumpVance2024

see that grey line?
it's about to be more like 2.2%.
average wage gains are up at 4% now
which means real, inflation adjusted wage gains are about to officially be higher than they were for much of 2019 -- the period so many Americans have expressed nostalgia for this cycle.
