I must have looked entirely too excited to find a pack of these gummy bears in the snack basket as a flight attendant gave me a "to go care package" of them to keep me "smiling all day". 😂😂😂
I have no shame and my inner 5-year-old self will happily pull them out later for a late night hotel snack ❤️!
A friend sent this photo from @copperfieldsnapa.bsky.social where she purchased a(nother) copy of my When Trees Testify: Science, Wisdom, History, and America's Black Botanical Legacy. I'm in good company with friend @chanda.blacksky.app's The Edge of Space-Time, Robert Moor & Terry Tempest Williams

My wife’s also diving into “Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice” from @thellpsx.bsky.social! 10/10 read from last year’s radical anti-zionist book club 🌼
