For those of you who may not know, the US (mainly southeast) restaurant chain Waffle House has such detailed contingency plans in case of disaster that our disaster management agency literally uses something called the "Waffle House Index" to know how aggressively to mobilize in an area.

Nothing shows the social bankruptcy of Project 2025 more than "let's privatize the weather service". These hurricane center forecasts are literally saving lives — is this something that only people able to afford the forecasts should get?

Audubon Magazine did a profile on me. It was a joy to hang out with writer Brian Kevin (I took him pigeon-watching) and get photos taken by Sophie Park. This article is personal and, well, I'm a private gal so being beheld is alarming, but I think it turned out great www.audubon.org/magazine/som...
