Weekend coffee #146.

I’m writing this quickly before I dash off for an overnight trip with my quarantine posse. Right now, they’re getting ready to hike Hawk Mountain while I throw clothes in a bag and walk my dogs before hitting the road. Tough to find a sitter in pandemic times, but grateful to my friend Allie for stepping in to take the Saturday night shift. Guessing this is our last chance at going anywhere for the foreseeable future with cases on the rise again. In the meantime, I plan to mask up, drive fast and stay safe. After this weekend, I’m planning to hunker down until spring. Maybe things will look different by then. Who knows anymore. In the meantime, here’s the latest:

• Why social media makes you feel so old

• The United States of Dolly Parton

• Here’s a list of the 10 greatest works of journalism of the past 10 years

• The Tao of Emotions

• There Would Have Been No Fleetwood Mac “If I Had Not Had That Abortion”

• Megan Thee Stallion: Why I Speak Up for Black Women

• Planning to watch: White Riot

That’s all for now. Until next time - thanks for following along and be well.
