Mid-January 2021

Okay, writing workshop went okay yesterday afternoon. Last night's architecture/urbanism discussion centering on Black involvement in architecture, design, urban (re)development, etc. was useful in seeing how equity principles can be made reality, as well as giving the wider public a look at projects being made reality right now.

This morning? I've started some laundry, gotten started on today's job search work, and planning to hope-scroll and doom-scroll through today's news as it evolves. Seems like we've got some hot stuff breaking on the exoplanet front.

Oh, and the count at exoplanet.eu as of today? 4404, split up between 3250 systems.

More on various topics later.
