As someone who lives in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, I've become used to extremely cold weather. But this "Arctic blast" feels colder than any past winter.

The former President Jimmy Carter has died at the age of 100. Read Lawrence Wright’s recollection of the late President’s life and career.
Remembering a Visit to Jimmy Carter in Plains, Georgia
The late President’s priorities were remarkably prescient, and his personal qualities offered a dismaying contrast to so much of the present state of American politics.

Happy holidays to everyone except Justin Baldoni and his PR team for this gross smear campaign against Blake Lively.
Blake Lively has filed a legal complaint laying out an alleged campaign to tarnish her reputation after she accused Justin Baldoni of misconduct on the set of “It Ends With Us.” A New York Times investigation shows how the fallout unfolded. nyti.ms/41G3a2u

Finished reading Atul Gawande’s Being Mortal this morning. I found it captivating, eye-opening, and important for the times we’re living in. It’s also very well written, as I breezed through it within a week. This should be required reading for everyone in our society.

I look forward to the day when it’s been discovered that life does, indeed, live on these faraway planets.
Uranus and Neptune both have a super weird magnetic field unlike anything else in the solar system.
