The traces that shelter us. This was an Open Tab long enough that I can't remember who posted it, but thanks. More incentive to someday be able to read in Spanish.

Plucked The Holy Days of Gregorio Pasos randomly off the library shelf, and what a mensch of a book. Just returned it to @pimalibrary so have at it, y'all.

@LeeanneGal Whenever I have a long drive I always get Luis Alberto Urrea novels. Heavy stuff with a goofy sense of humor, and that guy is the best audiobook reader. I've almost run out so thank goodness there's a new one coming!

Adding to the weirdly high proportion of favorite memories that involve freezing my tail off at the @UAPoetryCenter:
Ander Monson@angermonsoon
Tonight at the @UAPoetryCenter it's Bojan Louis, Ander Monson, and Manuel Muñoz. There will be broadsides by @el_diagram for the first 100 folks there. 7pm. Bring a coat or a blanket because it's Tucson-cold out there.

A+ inconvenient commute with @ElTucsonMonsoon:
💦 making friends with everyone else biking home
💦 person in car yelling to ask if I'm okay/need a ride while the street's running knee deep
💦 yelling "whooooo!" with total stranger as we go through same puddle

Love love love @YaleE360, but their coverage is only environmental: e360.yale.edu/features/amid-…

Friends, help me out: Where might one go for reliably good long-form, in-depth international coverage (of life outside the U.S.)? I've read great one-off articles but it's not really what any of these pubs do consistently. I'm looking for, like, Nat Geo of ten years ago.

Reading Borges for the first time and constantly reminded of @SamRafBarber stories. As opposed, I now realize, to everyone else, who had the reverse experience. But I think Sr. Borges would approve of backwards timelines.
