Horrifying that they knew and didn't say anything. This is the Bad Place.

Imagine being the whistleblower, risking it all, only to learn that major news outlets are prioritizing access over the truth!

we had a pink Isetta when I was about 6 years old, in 1964, which we called “the pink pig.” When my father bought it, the previous owner had put a motorized wooden key on top, so it looked like a toy. We kids were never allowed to ride in it, alas, as it frequently broke down between our house and my father’s work in DC. But we loved it in principle!

Thank you for the news of the beavers in the Czech Republic! Bohemia is 50% of my wife’s DNA, so we were very interested. Wonderful article.

Our small, feasible goal for 2026 is to secure retirement visas in Peru. We leave on Monday.

Maybe that's not a small feasible hope, but I'd love to see immigrants in the US treated like the productive members of our society that they have always been. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

My small, feasible hope is to keep writing poems.

I asked for the Portable Feminist Reader for the holidays and was gifted it - yay!

Small feasible hope? To publish an anthology of my writing group's work.

In the most complimentary manner: is that cute lil car the convertible version of the one Steve Urkel drove?

Happy New Year, Roxane! My small, feasible goals include sending more snail mail and tackling some of the countless recipes I have saved.
