I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

Yesterday, I thought about a friend who passed away in the spring. I listened to a song on YouTube feeling a touch of melancholy. Beloved picked me up for our evening commute and the song came on the radio. Rest well and easy old friend.

I'm working on a story for NPR on how high housing costs are causing some people to have fewer kids, or no kids, than they planned.

Is this you and you're open to being in the story? Drop a line with a bit about your situation, where you live, + your phone number to lwamsley@npr.org. Thanks!

A coach told a fencer that she fences epee like a foilist. Later, as we were talking about practice, her face in serious contemplation, I reminded her that when she started fencing foil, he told her that she fenced foil like an epeeist. We both laughed. Have fun, be safe, and get a touch.

One of our fencers grabbed a camera, yes a real camera, and took pictures of our trip to summer nationals. She knows her audience! Pictures of fencing, architecture, flora, and fauna now grace my inbox.
