My first Grief Word of the Day is VILOMAH. A vilomah is a parent who has lost a child. The word comes from Sanskrit, means "against the natural order". It's used to describe the grief that parents experience when their child dies, which is considered to be against the natural order of things. 1/3

I totally missed this last week—Walmart heir Christy Walton took out a full-page ad in The New York Times taking a shot directly at Trump.

When even Walmart money is sounding the alarm, you know it’s bad. Walmart heir, y’all!

This. This is what overthrew the elite enslavers in the 1859s and the robber barons in the 1890s. We need these new papers everywhere.
