fwiw Americans are very bad at understanding that the 2 things you're not supposed to discuss - politics and religion - infuse literally everything that the country has done, is doing, and will do

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain.

A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones.

Not sure that Pharrell speech at the Grammys is moving the needle with regard to... pretty much anything, but I just had to log in here and say that "don't do anything but work" is TERRIBLE advice.

Well, this blew up. I do not have a SoundCloud but I do have a Venmo and a recent $12,000/year increase in my ACA health insurance premium. No that is not a typo. So anything helps. Those are all just facts. Thank you.
