Did you ever wonder why Netherfield was empty for so long?

Some people say it was haunted.

Brian Schatz: "This is not about money. There is enough money to bail out Argentina with $20b. There is enough money to purchase a brand new aircraft for $173m for Noem. There is enough money to renovate the WH ballroom. What there isn't enough money for under this Republican government is you."

Norway has stepped in — not with campaigns, but with craftsmanship. Engineers have created floating ice pods designed to replace the vanishing habitat.
They're made from biodegradable, non-toxic materials. Insulated to stay cold under the Arctic sun. Grooved to keep seals from slipping.

I hope I live to see the day when getting routine immunizations is no longer a political talking point but just something we all do to help take care of each other.

I am marrying the love of my life this weekend.

But with each political new update breaking our hearts and our spirits just a little bit more, the question keeps echoing in my mind: is it okay to experience joy right now?

Yesterday they were shooting priests in the head with rubber bullets. Today they're arresting journalists. If you have anyone in your life who doesn't regularly follow the news and doesn't understand how bad things are and how bad they're about to get, you need to tell them right now. Time is short.
