Trillian and I made this photo specifically for Peter Straub on his birthday one year. He was a huge Henry James fan. Miss him dreadfully. Curse as the ghost. #photography #leica #ghosts
There are lots of headlines that could most encapsulate this administration, so I won't pretend this is the best. The people writing the history books in 100 years are going to freak out over how much they have to cover. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/0...
You think having to wear a mask sucked, talk to an icu nurse who didn’t have a single patient who survived about how she still can’t sleep at night five years later. #covid
I spent the entire pandemic talking to front line workers who were watching people die of COVID every day. None of these healthcare workers are ever going to be OK again. The thought that some people-who know better-are pretending it didn’t happen is horrifying www.betweenusandcatastrophe.com

It’s like the DOJ is using old Keystone Cops movies as training films. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

It’s ok if you liked a movie and someone else didn’t. You don’t need to get mad. Just love your movie and go see it again and tell your friends you liked it and buy it on dvd when it comes out and let it make you happy.
How I have yearned for someone to share my love of fish head bodegas with……
boyfriend came home from working a brutal 14-hour moving job, gave me a kiss, handed me his pay for the day, and passed out stone cold asleep on the couch. all the wrong people are millionaires man
Good morning & welcome to Roast Dinner Day Not every day asks for your best. Sometimes it simply asks you to keep going. On those days, let “good enough” be something you’re proud of, not something you apologise for.
Read today that a million people have at least one of my photos in their collections! Super happy for Emily Wilson — all that hard work paying off. <3 #odyssey
Pretty sure all these people complaining about the casting of Helen of Troy haven’t seen the movie. It’s a really small part. She’s got like 90 seconds of screen time in a 3 hour movie. You could miss it all going to get popcorn. Odysseus’ janky raft is more inaccurate if you’re a stickler.
Seems like this would be something any reasonable campaign manager would have made sure their candidate had an answer to before letting them out in public.
Wow -- Ken Paxton and his team abruptly shut down a news conference and bail after journalists try to ask him about his various scandals
With this budget they could just give every actual communist in America $3,000,000 each to move somewhere else.
Beyond absurd. A budget is a moral document.
Off to photograph an album cover. Whenever I leave the last thing I do is take a photo of the cats so I’m sure they don’t care that I’m gone.
One of these days I suppose it will be a legitimate text from someone I’ve never met … but today is not that day.
Occasionally it occurs to me in the still watches of the night that if Vermin Supreme had been elected president in 2020 and went full tilt with his free pony and mandatory tooth brushing platform we’d be better off right now.
Hey @nytimes.com making me “confirm my account” every time I log in to read an article is tedious and just makes me not read your article. Fix your nonsense. It’s unhelpful and bad UX.
