I grew up in the “It Gets Better” era where we urged kids who felt different to find communities online. I’m horrified by predators that seek out children to take advantage of that premise

It wasn’t always this way. Longtime real-estate agent Louise Phillips Forbes says her first transaction, in 1989, was a one-bedroom on the Upper West Side for $63,000 — the equivalent of about $157,000 today. (A similar unit in that building sold recently for $730,000.)

“His first day in office showed that he will continue to ping-pong between the serious and the stunning, participating in official Washington rituals one minute and whipping up his devoted supporters the next. And while former President Joe Biden was tightly managed by his advisers, Trump has made clear that he will resist efforts by friends, allies and advisers to constrain him.”

Ravitz said that late last week she showed clients a $30,000-a-month, three-bedroom apartment at the Fairmont Century Plaza Residences in Century City. The showing was the first time the clients saw their children since they learned their house was destroyed. Ravitz said they were directed away from a hallway in the building where a man had just vomited; he had not told his wife they didn’t have fire insurance.

One of my truest beliefs is that if we ended up in a second civil war, the “lines” would be more like this than a simple Mason Dixon line

Paragraph text: The draft order says it aims to establish a review that focuses “on leadership capability, strategic readiness, and commitment to military excellence.” The draft doesn’t specify what officers need to do or present to show if they meet those standards. The draft order originated with one of several outside policy groups collaborating with the transition team, and is one of numerous executive orders under review by Trump’s team, a transition official said.
