I play piano
A lightweight but earnest post: I was recently told that my habit of leaving my groceries cart in the middle of the store & bringing back titems in small trips is… eccentric & not generally done. I looked around and I did seem to be the only one. This is the first I ever questioned it. Anyone else?

Folds: If we’ve been told our whole lives that we can’t spend money on the arts because they’re not important—then why was taking over the Kennedy Center and the arts the first thing they did?

It is extremely important. It’s the bedrock of self-expression.

Everyone ok with getting food poisoning routinely? That’s not efficiently.
The Food and Drug Administration is drawing up plans that would end most of its routine food safety inspections work, multiple federal health officials tell CBS News.

I want to tell you why the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia should matter to you.

The one power you cannot give the executive is the ability to imprison or expel anyone regardless of their legal rights. That is our key check against autocracy. And we are watching it disappear.
