BTW, I don’t remember if I circled back on this, but for future folks searching for their own gay early religious studies D&D mostly-dead languages kid, The Cloisters was the right move.

Yet increasing numbers of people are volunteering to be chased across the countryside by baying bloodhounds in what could soon be the only legal way to hunt with dogs in England and Wales, rather than pursuing animals or their scents. Continue reading...

I don’t think this makes a single person involved with this entire stupid thing look even 0.05% better
Olivia Nuzzi's memoir is a combustive portrait of America, President Trump and the scandal with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. that upended her career.
In an exclusive interview with The New York Times, she recalls the infatuation that consumed her, Kennedy’s use of psychedelics and much more.
