Kudos to Volvo btw, of whom I will see some folks again at #RustWeek. 🦀
A few years back, the company made a nice list of many #pride flags to explain them. 🏳️‍🌈

Ambassadors of Volvo Group’s internal LGBTQ+ network called V-EAGLE tell us what they stand for.

The Multiversity and its Discontents: The Evolution of a Fatal Flaw — Minding The Campus
A well-known podcaster has the custom of going “off the grid” for a month each summer, to gain some perspective. I can beat that: I have been retired from academic teaching and research for nearly 14 years and have rarely visited my campus during that time. But last year, I finally encountered the university first-hand, […]

Perhaps more of an adaptation than a cover, strictly speaking: a French translation and slight alteration of the old blues standard, "Poor Boy, Long Ways From Home." I love it - it's a gorgeous gut-punch every time.
