For a long time now, I’ve noticed that engagement on my personal Facebook page has been dramatically lower than in previous years. No one comments, likes, or shares. People tell me all of the time that they don’t see my content (and when I point out that they could seek it out, they don’t.) What […]
The work of searching for missing, murdered, unidentified and unclaimed people can be isolating, the sort of loneliness that seeps back into the work. And that can be unproductive.

Don’t fall back on your intentions.) I have not written many news or political posts since the election. I am paying attention, but unsure what […]
Today is #FollowFriday which is something I just made up tonight (Thursday night) I’ll post a video with some riff on “follow’ and you will return the favor by following me on social media. It is where I post tons and tons of cool links to all sorts of great reads. Plus, I have a […]
Recently, a local elected official posted photos on social media – without masks – attending a social event outside. And then supported legislation requiring masks at outdoor spaces. Now that’s a little bit of a head spin, but more importantly to me is the failure to qualify the original posts. Are the people in the […]
