As the old carol goes, it really has been “snow on snow”. An overnight sprinkling has frozen into big, crunchy crystals on top of what was already there, and now everything is catching the light. Everything is shimmering, as if an over enthusiastic card crafter has gone wild with a glitter spray.

In English we know it as “Carol of the Bells,” but the melody arises from a Ukrainian folk tradition of songs welcoming the new year and summoning the forces of nature to meet human labor and bring prosperity.
Do listen.

Another beautiful Shchedryk performance amidst ruins.
It was set in what used to be a DTEK thermal power plant — now destroyed by russia.
The contrast between russia’s destructive nature and the Ukrainian will to create beauty even in the darkest times is palpable.

When the Department of Justice blatantly violates the law to protect wealthy and politically connected pedophiles, then we have no Justice Department and we have no justice.

These weren’t just movies. They were emotional landmarks. People lived inside them. Passed them down. Quoted them without realizing they were echoing a worldview that made room for tenderness, for companionship, for love that didn’t demand humiliation as its price.

So let me get this straight: The President’s plan to lower prices is to roll back some of his own tariffs?

The whole Third Term Project isn’t actually about Trump. The people behind it know he will likely be dead or enfeebled by 2029. It is about them, the vastly unpopular group around Trump, wanting to grift us forever without elections.

Hurricane forecasting has improved over the last 20 years, but that progress is now at risk.
The administration has already eliminated hundreds of jobs at NOAA, including in the National Weather Service and the National Hurricane Center.
