My mom had polio when she was five. She was living on a US military base in Japan (1947). Four kids on the base died. She was the only survivor.

Caitlin Clark said she told Stephanie White before the game there was no way they were losing tonight. "I hated that our fans booed her before the game. That made me a little sick, to be honest." "We're going to ride for her, and we're always going to have her back."

One Woman’s Message From the Hell of ICE Detention
My husband, son, and I have been locked up for months—despite being permanent residents with no criminal record. It is an unendurable, unending nightmare.

Very good and realistic analysis. With a play or two in crunch time, Spurs could have easily been 2-2 or up 3-1 instead of down 3-1 going into that final loss. Keep that team together and with the experience they got this year, they’ll be knocking on the door again.

on this day 105 years ago in 1921 the Tulsa Race Massacre began when white supremacists destroyed Tulsa's Greenwood district. This group of citizens destroyed 35 blocks of "Black Wall Street", killed 300, and left 10,000 Black citizens homeless.

Great piece outlining the devastating reality we’re facing today as our government has quickly become a domestic and international terrorist state. Maybe the rapid down slide of America will wake up the millions who sit home at election time.

Given the current state of failed leadership we’re living through this is obviously not going to happen anytime soon, but a “Cash for ICE cars” and EV incentives would be programs that could rapidly help heal the planet and benefit the human race.

All of the great players have been baited and challenged through the years, especially as rookies. The difference now is that media scrutiny is laser-focused on creating the “us vs them” narrative that just isn’t there. Clark’s coaches, teammates, and staff have her back and she knows it.

She’s too tough to stop 1 on 1. Have to full or 3/4 front with extreme ball pressure on entry pass, with low “I” defender ready to “Go Base” trap on lob or on baseline drive. Weakside defenders rotate “on a string” and ready to close-out on kick out pass using the “Near Person” rotation rule.

Not a single international cargo ship at the Port of Seattle. The port is dead. The last ship from China will dock at a West coast port on the 29th, and the last Chinese ship will dock on the East coast around May 10th. After that, there will be no more shipments arriving from China. We’re screwed.

This is a really good. Civil rights are disappearing rapidly under this lawless regime and it is now suspending due process under the guise of”national security.” Masses of Americans have had the “luxury” of living in an “apolitical comfort zone.” No more. Everyone is vulnerable in this autocracy.
