Man With Sign, April 17, 02026

It's raining lightly this morning, enough so that I take an umbrella, but not enough that I leave my foam-core signs at home. I reach Roosevelt Circle at 7:30, set up my big sign but leave my speaker in its cloth bag to keep it from the damp, and hold up CLIMATE CHAOS INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF THE NEXT PANDEMIC. Craige arrives about 7:35 or so.

It's cooler outside this morning as I walk up to Roosevelt Circle, arriving at 7:30 and setting up. No Craige today. I get my big sign clamped to the post, my speaker coupled, and my butt resting on the guardrail as I hold up EVERY DISASTER MOVIE STARTS WITH A SCIENTIST BEING IGNORED. There was a little rain last night, and everything's damp and cool.

It's pleasantly warm out here, a little over 60 F. I reach Roosevelt Circle at 7:30 exactly and set up my stuff, then rest on the guardrail holding up WE MUST BE BETTER ANCESTORS. Craige arrives a few minutes later, and we touch base briefly. He's got all his equipment in a little cart, including a folding chair. Why shouldn't we be comfortable while we're uncomfortable?

Ooooh! It's warm outside! In the upper 50s F, and I'm overdressed in a down winter coat. I reach Roosevelt Circle at 7:31, set up my big sign, couple my speaker, and hold up the data-heavy 2021 IPCC REPORT: "CODE RED" FOR HUMANITY. Craige is out today, so I am a soloist here on the roadside under an actual blue spring sky. Not bad at all.

Monday is a little warmer, in the mid-40s F, and I reach Roosevelt Circle at 7:31. After clamping my big sign to the guardrail post, with the matte black side facing traffic, I connect my speaker and hold up my ALL-BLACK foam-core board as my personal grim greeting to the week. Craige arrives about fifteen minutes late, having overslept.

Friday morning and it's 7:30 as I walk up to Roosevelt Circle. The weather is lovely — pleasantly cool but above freezing, with blue skies above — and I set up my stuff and lean on the railing, holding up THINK IN EONS — ACT NOW! At first I think Craige's not going to show, but he gets here a little after 8 in the company of John Gallagher.

Another cold morning, especially for April. It's in the 20s F, and I am very properly grateful for the extra layers keeping me insulated and comfortable. I reach Roosevelt Circle at 7:30, get myself assembled, and hold up LET'S BUILD A BETTER FUTURE TOGETHER. Craige arrives about 7:40 and we have a few moments of talk before settling into the vigil's calm.

Wednesday morning is chilly and I make sure to dress with some extra layers; it's in the mid-20s out there, which is cold for April. I reach Roosevelt Circle at 7;30, set up my stuff, and hold up MOTHER NATURE DOESN'T CARE WHAT YOU BELIEVE. Craige is again out, though he's hoping to be back tomorrow.

I wake before the alarm, but I'm still a tad behind by the time I leave the house, arriving at Roosevelt Circle at 7:32 under grey skies that portend rain. I've brought my umbrella, so I'm prepared. Set up my sign and speaker, lean on railing, hold up SCIENTIFIC IGNORANCE IS A POOR FOUNDATION FOR PUBLIC POLICY. No Craige today.
