Amazing - so glad for you!

Gotta admit: I wonder what the polar bears think of rolling display cases filled with tasty humans?

When the GOP starts to turn on Trump, we'll know: he'll in the Situation Room, desperately plotting.

Looks like a Wudu foot washing station… perhaps in keeping with the house’s architectural style?

Good snow news! Bad geography fail, NYT.
Y'all need to get out more.

Hint: Saul Steinberg's map isn't enough.

"The Sierra Nevada lies primarily in Central & Eastern California, with the Carson Range, a small but historically important spur, extending into Nevada."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra_...
The map shows that the Sierra Nevada are almost wholly within California, save for the Carson Range. [The map doesn't show the White Mountains, a far greater proportion of which actually do lie on the California/Nevada border, but why burden the NYT's writers and editors with learning basic geography of America's most populous state and Earth's fourth largest economy when they have weddings and famous peoples' trinkets to spotlight?]

Worked for Himmler... until it didn't.
Heinrich Luitpold Himmler (German: [ˈhaɪnʁɪç ˈluːɪtpɔlt ˈhɪmlɐ] ⓘ; 7 October 1900 – 23 May 1945) was a German politician who was the 4th Reichsführer of the Schutzstaffel (Protection Squadron; SS), a leading member of the German Nazi Party, and one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany. He is primarily known for being a principal architect of the Holocaust.

Here's the bipartisan middle of Trump and Musk's road, @shaheen.senate.com.
Why do you collaborate with them?
Musk & his shock troops seized de facto control of Treasury & OMB by yesterday - and today, tapped into HHS's data.
That's everyone with Medicare & Medicaid.
Which side are you on, Senator?

Want to know 2023 hospital costs for uninsured non-residents in Vancouver (one of Canada’s most expensive cities [trust me])?
Bypass 8,700 CDN
/w valve replacement 12,770 CDN.
That’s 6,040 & 8,700 USD.
Private room? 195 CDN/ 135 USD/day.
Very detailed chart of 2023 Provident Health System (Canada) hospital fees: far lower than anything I’ve seen in US health since ~1985. I apologize I can’t type the 20 or so separate lines here.

At this time when the veil between living and dead is thinnest, @KathViner & @UKGuardian’s Oxbridge enforcers are far too busy with orgiastic rituals and ritual consumption of posh rotted spleen surrounding Corbin’s long dead electoral chances to let mere news disturb their necropolitics.

Sad news for a fine country - some nations have no taste.

(Lower standards than the Friars Club: they just let me become a citizen.)
This image is comprised of maple leaves - both white and red - arranged with red borders on the sides and a red maple leaf in the center, with a background of while leaves (much like Rose Float botanical decorations) to form a Canadian flag. O Canada!
