Extraordinary what Cory Booker has done. A lot of people feel powerless right now, with little substantive action possible. Talking for 24 hours accepts those limits and leans in to the symbolic. 🇺🇸

I was sick most of yesterday and tuned out of any social web drama, so was at first surprised to learn that this week’s FediForum has been cancelled. Details on their Mastodon account:
We’ve all had a difficult few days. Tempers are high. Some of what’s been happening in the Fediforum comments section has reached insult-only stage and I have heard of physical safety concerns.
Sounds like the right call to postpone. Hope they can regroup, get some rest, and I look forward to attending in the future. FediForum has served a unique role in the community.

Enjoyed this illustrated story by Jackie Lay about the life of Victoria Woodhull, who ran for president in 1872.

Just great defense from the Longhorns. Love their midrange shooting too. I picked UConn vs. Texas for the women’s championship game, so could still happen. 🏀

Finished reading: The Bear and The Nightingale by Katherine Arden. Beautiful and haunting. 📚
