One thing about Dolly Parton's passing that strikes me is that unlike some others, she experienced a lot of praise before passing. It wasn't saved for obituaries. There were regular (warranted) love-fests for Parton. I wish that for everyone. It's a good day to tell people you appreciate them.

The Roberts Court, the Trump White House, and the national GOP are acting like this is their one big shot. Either they secure the lasting end of US Constitutional democracy, or they’re in very serious trouble from the backlash. And they’ve already gone so far that there’s no other possibility.

Phlox plant named ‘Fancy Girl’ US #PlantPatent 36,599 (granted today) The breeders describe the variety as especially suitable as a potted plant, for the garden, for attracting hummingbirds and butterflies, and for cut flower arrangements.

The RedNote discourse reveals that pop-leftists do not see themselves as workers, but as consumers, and their infatuation with China is out of a belief that their government socialistically provides everyone with treats that our companies and government callously withhold for a profit.

Amazing effort. Can't wait to go back and see it again.

More than five years ago, Parisians and the world watched in horror as a devastating fire tore through the centuries-old Notre Dame cathedral. As the cathedral reopens, here’s a look at what survived, what was restored and what’s new.

I see a lot of you still sharing posts from the obviously fake Count Dracula account, so please be aware: - the real Count would never post during daylight hours in Romania - his full given name is Vlad, not Vladimir - he does not actually say “blah” and would never write it out in a post

In which I disagree with the boss: The problem isn't that the traditional media offers opinion alongside fact, it's that so many people see fact as opinion. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

washingtonpost.comColumn | When reality is seen as biased, objectivity alone won’t shield the pressThe media has a trust problem that overlaps with its economic problems. But that trust problem is often a function of external actions, not internal ones.

Which is more amazing: the fact that America has vastly outperformed other advanced economies without higher inflation, or the fact that Biden gets no credit?

You are up to date.
