This. A Gentleman in Moscow is so good that it skewed my expectations and they were not met or exceeded by Lincoln Highway.

RIP Wendell Berry. May we heed your words and your example now more than ever. “People who own the world outright for profit will have to be stopped; by influence, by power, by us.”

Here’s what I got. First time I’ve seen the size-comparative descriptor under either name.

Zoomed in picture of Google Maps location of Lake Ontario (now labeled as Lake America by Google Maps) but with the tagline “Smallest of the 5 Great Lakes.”

My rankings might be slightly different but I am here for this sort of content.

I’m intrigued. I didn’t know T Mobile fiber was an option here.

On March 26, 2026, during a debate on violence against women in Germany’s Bundestag, left-wing MP Kathrin Gebel was repeatedly interrupted by AfD MP Martin Reichardt. She responded: “Mr. Reichardt, the clitoris has 3,000 nerve endings, and you’re still more sensitive. That’s quite an achievement.”

Discworld QOTD, from The Last Continent

Elsewhere, someone might have said, “It’s just books! Books aren’t dangerous!” But even ordinary books are dangerous, and not only the ones like Make Gelignite the Professional Way. A man sits in some museum somewhere and writes a harmless book about political economy and suddenly thousands of people who haven’t even read it are dying because the ones who did haven’t got the joke. Knowledge is dangerous, which is why governments often clamp down on people who can think thoughts above a certain caliber.

I re-read it a few years ago and it really holds up. I have such fond memories of reading that as a kid, along with other classics like Mrs. Frisby & the Rats of NIMH and From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler.

I second the recommendation for the swivel glider with ottoman. More stable and easier to get into and out of than a standard rocking chairs. And very comfortable.

I was told there is an “entire literature” that disproves birthright citizenship. Did I miss the discussion of this body of literature or is it being saved for a dramatic reveal?

I had the same thought but it looks like they are suspending the 3-minute seats for today. I wonder how often they do this.

I put off doing a thing for so long that I had built it up in my head until it was a Thing. In early March, I finally did the Thing. It was not as bad as I expected. In fact, it turned out very well. So if you are waiting for a sign to do the Thing that’s been weighing you down, maybe this is it.

The good news was that while we built shelters and fires and tried our hand at skiing, we didn’t have to sleep outside. We were safely ensconced in cabins.

From Northern Michigan (not U.P.), we did a winter survival camp in 5th grade, an overnight to Henry Ford Museum/Greenfield Village, and Frankenmuth in 6th grade, and a trip to Mackinac Island in 8th grade. Senior trip was normally to D.C. but ours went to Chicago.

A brisk day (feels like temp of 9 degrees) for the Minnesota United home opener but we were warmed to see the Andor-inspired tifo and the ICE out banner and warmed even more by the “F**k ICE” chant that started during the moment for Renee Good and Alex Pretti before kickoff. Minnesota: United.

Picture of the Wonder Wall supporters’ section during the Loons’ home opener with an “ICE Out Now” banner displayed.

Just seeing this. What a gut punch. Sending hugs and lots of “fuck cancer” energy your way.

When we first moved here, it took us about a week to realize that every local news outlet could find a Minnesota connection to every national or regional news story. And we’ve heard the 1991 Blizzard story enough that it almost feels like we actually lived through it ourselves.
