Housekeeping: This is paywalled, so housekeeping first. Now through Halloween, paid subscriptions are 10% off: link here. Comments are open for paid subscribers. Email hollymathnerd at gmail if you want to participate but can’t afford a paid subscription. I’m no longer on any social media, so your spreading the link to anything you enjoy reading here is helpful and appreciated. Thank you!

This issue has so many pictures that it may give gmail or other email programs a lot of grief. You can go to the Substack website to read it there.

Behind the paywall: many more foliage pictures, my experience buying a new car, and my thoughts on anti-woke identity politics. All the pictures were taken by me with an iPhone and are presented without editing or filters. The pictures don’t actually do the beauty justice, but they’re all I’ve got to share it with you.
