Hey shoutout to Zoroastrianism for not getting all salty about how *you* used to be top dog.
I feel bad for The Hague. We only ever talk about it in terms of sending criminals there. I have found numerous things located there not crime related which are of at least moderate interest.

I know there's a lot of worse things in the world than misleading Wikipedia entries but listing Elizabeth Taylor's small role in Jane Eyre (made before she was famous) does not count as a cameo and someone should really have a word about this with Jimy Wales if he's around.

If you recently learned that the Supreme Court granted review in a major voting case and the Utah GOP suffered a defeat in their effort to rig maps, you probably subscribe to Democracy Docket.

SNAP benefits are currently being held hostage by the Trump administration and their fate now lies with the Supreme Court.

Beneath the legal arguments are real people who simply need food—a former federal worker, a single mother of 4, a disabled man. I spoke to them. Here are their stories:

Recipients have become political pawns. They explained, in their own words, what Trump withholding funds has been like.

So apparently the "Geraldo Capone Safe" story isn't at the front of every Gen Zer's minds and honestly I blame the parents.

Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name.

The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.
