One of Tomlin’s favorite axioms is “We don’t live in our fears.” I just wish he’d apply it to the offense.
Desperation can acquaint you with strange bedfellows. Pittsburgh needs a new identity on offense, and Aaron Rodgers needs a chance to wash the stink off of his reputation.

Doctors at the CDC say children should receive Covid vaccines. A disgraced ex-environmental lawyer who spent 20 years abusing heroin says they shouldn't. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

Ben Franklin on inoculation, after his son died from smallpox.
“In 1736, I lost one of my sons, a fine boy of four years old, by the small-pox, taken in the common way. I long regretted bitterly, and still regret that I had not given it to him by inoculation”.

When history looks back on this second Trump administration to see how the opposition party responded, they will surely note that "they tweeted through it"
History will remember April 9, 2025 as America’s actual liberation day—the day that President Trump backed down from his ridiculous tariff fiasco.
