Mental Health Day
No essay today: it's hot and humid in Milwaukee right now (which always drains me a bit), and my girlfriend is leaving town for several months a few days from now (so I'm trying to ensure we've got proper time together before her departure).
The rest of the newsletter is as usual, though, so I hope you enjoy the links and photos—I'll be back with fresh scribblings next week :)
