World-changing kindness is often found in "the small, unseen choices we make when no one is watching," says LATE TODAY author Jungyoon Huh.

As we approach Thursday's #WorldKindnessDay, how can we take time to be kind?

Tucker was a rambunctious shelter dog that no one wanted. Until Laura came along and saw that he might be just right for her home...and a special job. Could all his energy make him an amazing #conservation #dog?

Read more about Tucker in TROUBLE DOG! And happy #AnimalShelterAppreciationWeek!

How much do we love this poetic review of LATE TODAY?! Thank you for your beautiful words, @priscillag.bsky.social. 😻
Marvelous drawings of a traffic jam
and that rain-heavy sky
and so many looking away,
as a kitten crosses traffic.
But someone...
_screeech!_

A meditation
a provocation
a call to be late...

just in time.

I kept thinking,
"We're all this kitten."

👍🏼📚
