He'd take anything as a flashpoint, no reason to let that concern stop American lawyers from sueing and having a judge order them removed.

You don't just evict a tenant because a big company changes the rules and an old woman can't keep up. Que descanse en paz, Mari Carmen. An 87 year-old doesn't just gather her wits and couch-surf until she finds another flat.

A few minutes in Kyiv. Drones and a power outage not on the schedule. Someone is stuck in the elevator. My upstairs neighbour is going to look after her mum (97) in Sumy, closer to the frontline. A woman on the street asks where the nearest shelter is. I see her fear and take her to a safe place.

Because they have monopolies in those forms of commerce and communication. If you own a business, travel abroad, rely on certain support networks, are unable to drive, you can't just quit all these things. Hence the need to break up billionaire monopolies.

This is a good weekend for an impromptu party on the left bank. I hope the musicians, the people who love to bake, the children on their bicycles come out together in a big show of We're OK! We're not going to go crying to our President to give up.

So glad to hear this. I adopted a very shy cat and now she follows me around, meows her opinions, head butts my hand, smiles contendedly when petted, shares food with her sibling, watches at the window for birds. She still hides from strangers.

This election is *not* about prosperity. It's about housing, tuition, bacon and egg prices. It's about how safe we *do not* feel dropping our kids off at school. It's about corruption and greed vs healthcare. This election is about 2027, not 2060. Not the survival or demise of capitalism.

Youtube and META changed their minds. Let me guess, it would be posted as free content if they didn't run it as an ad, and get 90% of the views that it would have. So then, youtube would look bad and make no money off the trailer.

We know your job is frustrating, Democratic Senators, but we need to hear "I sued", "I introduced a bill", "I visited", and "we blocked". As well as "in my state we just made your lives easier by ..." We already know how unhinged they are.
