I’m so sorry to hear that lynny has passed. I only got to meet them once - in New Orleans during a gathering of anti racist religious leaders at Bethlehem Lutheran several years back - and their compassion and generosity of spirit was just so big.
Giving thanks for the life and witness of lynny duncan (formerly Lenny Duncan) and for the ways they taught and shaped our community over the years. May their tenacious spirit inspire all of us to action.
i always forget to post stuff over here - too distracted by all the pretty pictures/process videos on IG and the longer-form posts of FB - but i did just make a blog post catching up on the last month or so since my last blog post. you can find it here --> artbymags.com.

#nolasky Anyone know if I can get my car battery replaced in my driveway? My insurance company offers this service elsewhere but in New Orleans they will only jump it and then tow the car when they confirm the battery is super dead.

I took these photos of the Dolly Parton "house float" on St. Charles Avenue during the 2021 socially distanced Carnival season
On the subject of Dolly’s union/working class solidarity, her 9 to 5 LP included Woody Guthrie’s ´Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos)’, a protest song about the racist mistreatment & media coverage of exploited Mexican farm workers who died when the plane deporting them crashed in 1948.

If you haven’t listened to it yet, I suggest the audiobook Songteller, by Dolly. It’s great to hear her talk about her songs and sing bits here and there.
I’m still navigating my approach to incremental journalism, but in the spirit of quickly turning around information for the public, myself and other outlets to build on — I wanted to make the primary document available right away.

In Gary, Indiana, without refrigeration insulin supplies are being spoiled, and people who depend on oxygen cannot pump it from their tanks due to lack of electricity. A public health disaster.

People who make beautiful quilts and give them to you? They believe that you deserve beautiful things. Don’t put them in a closet to “preserve them”.
What’s a thing from your area of expertise (or special interest) that you think it would behoove everyone else to know?
I keep thinking about how people are going THROUGH IT. Everyone. It’s so important to have compassion for ourselves AND — crucially — each other.
