Oh my. I’ll need a free afternoon and several cups of tea to follow at least 17 rabbit holes here. Such fun - thank you! Fellow lawyer/writer/chronic-condition haver here. Wish I’d found you well before this, but I’m here now! <blocks off calendar to dive into archives>

So much fascinating stuff here. Thanks again! In case you haven’t seen it, Jason Anthony recently reported a great piece on bird deaths from window strikes and offered some concrete solutions. https://open.substack.com/pub/jasonanthony/p/life-behind-glass

Thank you for another interesting missive, lots of interesting reads to catch-up on.

I found a couple of custom GPT's this month that made me think of you.

h/t webcurios

Both are vicarious travel guides created by GenAI's and are food for thought...

Oh, and this weather map has been my go-to for ages, I like the play forecast feature, which is surprisingly accurate for changeable UK weather.

What a wonderful concept - interstitium. That is a word for me to mull over.

Thank you for the gift guide, I’d been really stuck on what to get my girlfriend and the Embroidered heart maps are perfect!

Dear Jodi, I save your newsletters and set aside time to explore the fascinating links and enjoy your pithy comments. You are a treasure keeping me from scrolling despair! I know it's far from true, but I'd like to imagine your firece spirit reclining, as Roman leaders once did, and picking through trays (of stories) proffered by eager accolytes to serve to the world! (Too much Hollywood, but there you have it.) Happy holidays.
