OKC can feel like a desert along certain axes, but discovering @thefloatingbookshop.com and @chmmagazine.bsky.social on the same weekend was a delight.

If only one could capture all this “shake fist at national politics to zero effect but mild catharsis“ energy and pipe it into school board and city council elections.

Poked and prodded at Oklahoma's new medical cost transparency site. Underwhelmed. chrisdodds.net/blog/2025-10...
