What’s Up in the Neighborhood, January 28 2023

Before I commence my weekly blogroll recap, I want to share a special blog post from someone that was once part of the same Times Union community blog portal as me. Brian Huba operated a blog he called “The Cat’s Pajamas,” and posted very well-written articles during his stay in the TU blogfarm. Eventually he took “The Cat’s Pajamas” private, and that was that.

This week, he shared his new article, “I Dream of Dave Barden,” as it is the featured essay on the website Biostories. Here’s a link to the essay. Definitely read this article first, then go through the rest of the blogroll recap and you’ll have a full day of enjoyment. Trust me on this.
