@AmandaHarnocz The NYT suggests sound layering (fans, a/c, air purifiers, white noise machines) and playing music. It fools the brain into ignoring or maybe just lessening the sound of explosions. Wirecutter has a good article on dealing with fireworks.

@tomkimmerer Our Metroparks describe them as King of the Magnolias. In Cleveland, the tulip trees flower just as the hummingbirds arrive, an early sign of spring
@AmandaHarnocz Wait a minute…what? The Kordalski brick will be gone? Oh, it’ll be gone all right. Might have to make a midnight trip to ‘gone’ it. For posterity, of course..
@AmandaHarnocz Brandy shook her shoulders, opened her eyes and exhaled. She got a degree in marine biology, made an absolute fortune farming horseshoe crabs and lived a life of no regrets. Meanwhile, Mr sailor fell and ended up as shark bait . Also, you know what to order for happy hour.
