This new rail line, the most ambitious in 90 years, could change the face of New York City.
We hopped on a freight train to film the route, and show its potential. Take a look! 🚂

please we are so tired we cannot do all the things ourselves

I want really important stuff that might kill me to be in the hands of people who studied that shit their whole life so that mastering the complexities of every aspect of human existence at once is not suddenly all on me, a theatre major
I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

Angel of the Lord: He is not here, He is risen, just as He said.
Come and see the place where He lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead.

Alito: Okay, first of all, this violates ALL sorts of rules

Thomas: This was a LAWFUL execution, who is God to interfere

Abraham Lincoln is often quoted for saying: "As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.”

But the passage I think of daily from the same 1838 speech to the Young Men’s Lyceum of Springfield, Illinois is this one.
