I know it's important to listen to voices outside your own algorithmic bubble, but I couldn't take more than 60 seconds of the execrable, pompous hypocrites on Sky News 'after dark' at my in-laws' before I had to excuse myself and leave the room in silent apoplectic despair

I got permission to share this, and I'm extremely grateful for that.
The Onion got this letter from one of our subscribers in Alaska. She works with dementia patients and decided to leave a copy in the car for each one.
This email made my year. Read it and you'll see what I mean. People are good.

6 weeks ago, my 4yo son was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome. Yesterday got the news that his medication isn't working. Remaining interventions mean he will be taking immune-suppresants for the rest of his life. Today, his daycare told us they have had a confirmed case of whooping cough. #vaccinate

Interestingly—I’m sure this has been repeated but an U.S. trauma surgeon signaled that the entirety of the time they spent in Gaza during two tours, they’ve never treated a combatant nor do they know of anyone who has, identifying more than 60 percent of who they treated were children.

The reality is, Britain economically benefits from immigration and illegal migration is too small to impact most. The communities that blame immigration for decline are actually suffering the effects of 15 yrs of Tory austerity, under-investment in public infrastructure and the reality of Brexit.

I watched the resounding refutation of divisive culture war politics that was the Australian general election results last night with relief and pleasure. Albo's appeal to decency and fair play, in response to the jeering at the mention of Dutton was apposite and exactly what we need in these times

Put aside the lies and the open defiance of the Supreme Court, as well as the cruelty, and ask yourself: who talks like this? This is the *official* account of the *White House* - is it being run by a six year old?
