In the fall of 2021, after a remote year, I was teaching in person wearing a mask close to 100% of the time. A few weeks into one intro course, where the students didn’t already know me, I lowered my mask for a moment and there were audible gasps from the class. They’d never seen the lower half of my face!
“What did you •think• was going to be down there?!” I quipped. (Maybe they were picturing tentacles, like an Ood?)
But the gasp was genuine: after hours of looking at my masked face, they still had no idea what my •unmasked• face looks like.

I was just listening to "Strong Songs", one of my favorite podcasts, but it was re-airing an episode of "Aria Code", a podcast I haven't heard before, about single opera arias.
This half hour episode from 2021 is looking at Nessum Dorma, intersecting it tightly with vignettes by an ICU doctor describing moments from the first year of the pandemic. It's very much worth a listen - uplifting, emotional, hopeful. Vincero!

“Nessun Dorma” has long been opera’s crossover hit. But in the last year, it’s become something more -- an anthem of hope.

Never forgot how completely fucking cartoonish the entire Adams administration was.
And that our current NY City Council just stood by and watched the whole thing without doing much more than sternly-worded letters.
And Governor Hochul, when given the opportunity, decided *not* to remove Adams from office.

"Greenpoint, we fucking did it!" screamed Council Member Lincoln Restler, who, with Assembly Member Emily Gallagher started the latest round of activism in 2021 after the hit-and-run death of local teacher Matthew Jenson. That death led to a $40-million commitment by the de Blasio administration to make McGuinness safe — but the Adams administration scaled back the full redesign as part of corruption scandal that included top aide Ingrid Lewis-Martin blocking the road diet in exchange for an ap…

The Narwhal is going to court
Photojournalist Amber Bracken was on assignment for The Narwhal in northern British Columbia in November 2021. Amber was documenting tensions over the construction of the Coastal GasLink pipeline through Wet’suwet’en territory when she was arrested by the RCMP.
Amber was handcuffed, held in a cell for three nights and had her camera gear and photographs seized — all for doing her job.
