Ahh, we sang "Abide with me" often at my British boarding school in the late 1950s, for its solace. I was so lonely. It wrapped me in arms made of music and of other lonely voices. This hymn respected my sadness enough to let it breathe and rest. I could use the song and those voices today.

Yes, indeed. The Democrats dither.

Please cover what's likely to happen to aviation, created and maintained by global governance of facts managed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), across 193 countries. If that falters only a little, accidents will multiply and that great transportation system will fail.

A central policy for the Democratic party has to be to oppose the lies with the same intensity, breadth, and intelligence that the radical right uses to make and distribute them. The party has to be identified as the party of truth. It's that simple.

These kinds of celebrations seem to get little attention, but they matter enormously. Thank you!

Missionary parents, traveling childhood, restless life. Longing-based travel isn't an option, so I use a VR headset and panoramic images to go back to places that draw me with nostalgia. Of course when I get there in the headset it's the people that I miss, but the pictures help.

The books are very different from the series. I like the books better for the realistic characters; Jim Chee is never a jerk. Nobody passes a car in distress on western roads but in the series he does. The series also suffers from the US crime series cliche of a new corpse every 30 seconds or so.

It's available in Canada, too, giving cross-border access.

Thank you! I have lived among and have long loved the people of rural America. See my nat geo story www.prosebox.net/entry/243529/ I read your essay on your dad. I think it happened mostly because of the wonderful small-town human instinct to trust, and on Mr. Trump's opposite instinct to lie.

If this is what it takes to get you to write essays like your magnificent and important one on anti-constitutional action, please drink more.

Yes. It was so hard to believe about the change to the URL, that I went to look at it. The post is correct. This government is fully embracing racism.

This is deliberate active intentional murder.

Thank you for using the accurate word.

How is this not a coup?

Hi, kids. The coronation of Queen Elizabeth II.
