I’m watching birds at all hours now. I can see thirty, fifty birds a week, sometimes even more if I don’t put it all in my journal. All the animals come out in the morning: blue jays, warblers, northern cardinals, hawks, sparrows, ruddy ducks.

April 16th, 2025: Over the weekend I went to the Kingston Symphony New documents show Billy Long’s $130,000 personal debt was suddenly paid off by donors at firms policed by the tax agency he’d lead.
I keep seeing headlines about “food insecurity.” SHUT UP The word is “starvation”. Starvation. You media weasels. Now despite what a lot of people think, starvation isn’t fast, and there were some stores, but those stores have run out. So Israel is deliberately starving something like 1.7 million people, to death. Meanwhile the only nation in the world trying to stop this is Ansar-Allah (the Houthis). And what is America doing? Sponsoring a ground invasion by the “official government” of Yemen. In his mid-nineteenth-century prose poem Crowds, the French symbolist Charles Baudelaire declared that it ‘is not given to everyone to take a bath among the multitude’. More than this, he elaborated in the same poem: [E]njoying the crowd is an art; and he only can make, at the expense of the human race, a lively […] Marco Rubio revoked his green card for antisemitism.
