A story I found about Haiti:
In 1999, a group of Haitians were tired of political disorder and dreamed of a better life in the United States. So they built a small, 23-foot boat by hand using pine trees, scrap wood, and used nails. They called the boat "Believe in God."

Thomas Kinkade's family (!) sent DHS a cease-and-desist letter www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
DHS is posting Americana paintings and migrant mugshots. The art world is not happy.
Homeland Security is sharing images of pastoral paintings bookended by posts cheering Trump’s deportation campaign. Some artists are pushing back.

Death, Burial and Afterlife in the Bible. (history / Jewish studies)
What was your favorite early clas NOT in your eventual major. Mine was Ethnomusicology: an introduction to folk music.
I invariably get, "Ooh anthro that was my favorite class/cool professor" from people I meet. I tend to think soms of it is our outré material, being willing to talk "taboo" subjects in a cross-cultural context.
Ironically MY favorite class was probably Geology 101...

I just realized that teenagers using old point and shoot cameras is the same thing as when I was in college and insisted on only using my dad's polaroid camera.

One noteworthy takeaway from last week's Boston City Council hearing: A Waymo official said they have "not yet validated the Waymo driver for fully driverless operations in things like snow."

Why some Boston officials are wary about Waymo
Waymo's driverless vehicles are already on the road in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Austin and Atlanta, and the company may hope to add Boston to its list in the future. But before that could ...

The odd thing about surviving lifelong depression is that you never planned to get this old, and then one day it happens.
Anyway, I turned 40 a couple weeks ago. I know that's a birthday a lot of people dread, but I was so happy. I did it, I survived, I'm still here!

Read this thread. The Alt National Parks account is a grift.
This is the stuff that legitimately worries me. I've seen some very, very intense baking in the replies to AltNPS and their "coded" messages. People are buying into this, and I don't like where that leads.
