Still pretty good. She has a whole little media empire at parentdata.org now. I stopped subscribing to her mailing list because it got more expensive and more siloed (different mailing lists for different stages of parenthood at various prices; and article quality from other authors is a bit lower imo). But there is still a lot of very solid reference material there.

Hey folks! We are planning to do a potluck after the event, so please consider bringing something if it’s convenient for you to do so. There is a kitchen there, so we should be able to store items in the fridge during the Solstice ritual for afterward.
Try the Flex/Flux/Fix series by Ferrett Steinmetz.

Yes, I think it’s true that NYC is overrepresented—plus there are significant gaps in the Bay programs posted so those are underrepresented. I’ve at least biased it towards songs that I personally like more which is probably more towards Bay-ish and away from NYC-ish.

For anyone doing a Smolstice, I put together a program that is ready to print and use: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/qFai3Xxhake5dBhTr/a-simple-sing-along-solstice

If you haven’t yet, we could use RSVPs today to get a sense of empanada order size.
Quick weather update: Solstice will go on!
We have checked the state of plowing at the venue. The roads nearby are clear. The driveway on the property is not currently plowed but we have been told they plan to finish it up by this afternoon, and the snow coating is light enough that it’s drivable as is.
Please BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SAFETY—only come if you’re confident you can do so safely, and please drive especially slowly and carefully on any unplowed areas. The venue will NOT be salting their driveway, so watch for ice.
