1. I don’t have it together enough to do anything like “my top posts of 2022” or “links I loved most” or “100 things that made my year” but I did save some capybaras to share. Definitely taking this vibe into the new year:

2. I also saved this poem:
I am running into a new year
Lucille Clifton
i am running into a new year
and the old years blow back
like a wind
that i catch in my hair
like strong fingers like
all my old promises and
it will be hard to let go
of what i said to myself
about myself
when i was sixteen and
twentysix and thirtysix
even thirtysix but
i am running into a new year
and i beg what i love and
i leave to forgive me
3. And I found the Chaucer Doth Tweet account:
Everyone talkinge to a catte yn their hous ys first walkinge arounde sayinge, “Wher are yow, buddye? Are yow on the chayre?” And then thei see the catte, “There yow are! Ther yow are buddy! Looke at yow!”

Looke at yow! You survived another year. I’m proud of us.
