“SATURDAY, JULY 20, 2024
I HAD MY RECURRING dream last night. I guess I should have expected it. It comes to me when I struggle—when I twist on my own personal hook and try to pretend that nothing unusual is happening. It comes to me when I try to be my fatherʼs daughter.”

Octavia E. Butler published this prescient sci-fi novel in 1993. The book opens on this very day, July 20, 2024,in a dystopian America. (2/3)

Birdy Update! 🪺These little fluffs are chirping and active…that is until I try to sneak a pic. Then it’s, “form of … a statue!”
