  • Saw this Max Ernst painting at SAIC. I thought it was cool the center part looks like a CD but done 50+ years before the CD was created. Plus the sense of foreboding doom seemed apropos of the times.

  • Zohran won the mayoral primary after being endorsed by our bird neighbor! I spent a lot of the last two weeks canvassing. Went a lot to Ozone Park / little bangladesh. Inspired by how many young people (20-25 years old) were out on the streets. Many multi-generational families were voting for Zohran because their kids convinced them. Something to be hopeful about in these bleak times.
