I finished reading Circe, and it didn't quite live up to my expectations, especially after loving The Song of Achilles. The story seemed to lack depth and didn't have any real driving force, and I struggled to become invested in the characters.

“Dear ICE agents - I hope you’re respectful to everyone and show kindness… we should treat all people the same, even if we don’t know them.”

If this doesn’t shatter your heart you don’t have one. 💔

I don't understand why the Good Lord takes Moira Rose home and leaves Trump. Unless...unless Catherine O'Hara has just been given the greatest role of her career. Haunting the sleaze-bag into repentance and righteous repair. Lord, hear our prayer.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

He spent decades bringing the religious right to power. Now he's marching to undo it.

Rev. Rob Schenck spent decades helping build the Religious Right—commingling church and state to advance conservative causes. Now, he says he must confront the damage he helped cause.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨
The UK Govt has quietly published - without announcement - the Joint Intelligence Committee/DEFRA report it suppressed last October. They tried to sneak it out in the midst of crisis. Read and share:

“Global Biodiversity Loss, Ecosystem Collapse & National Security.”
