I was never what you would call a Sara Bareilles  Super Fan, but after seeing her in concert last tonight, holy shit, you can definitely call me that now. If you need some catharsis and some hope, go see Sara's #GoodGrief tour.  Wow.

This mockup shows the February page of my 2027 Awesome Auroras calendar hanging on a wall. The calendar launches on Friday, October 9 at 9 AM Alaska time, and the first 100 customers get 20% off: theauroraguy.com/products/awe...
The February 2027 page of the Awesome Auroras calendar, hanging as a spiral-bound wall calendar, square on a pale sage-green wall above a white desk, with a small potted succulent and a white cup of pens standing below it and a stack of white books to the right. The page shows the Full Spectrum aurora photo across the top, a written sidebar about where the aurora's colors come from, and the date grid with the moon phases, the annular solar eclipse and the penumbral lunar eclipse, and the U.S. and Canadian holidays.

Where is Ann Wagner? She can't run on her 14 year record. She can't run on the economy. She can't talk about what she has done for the district. All these years she counted on gerrymandering and an R next to her name. Now she is in trouble and all she can do is smear me. It won't work.

This is Maeve. She may be the sweetest, most good natured, most trusting dog I have ever met. She was abandoned in DC last week, and since I’m not able to adopt a dog now, I had to turn her over to the Brandywine Animal Shelter. I want to make sure this absolute delight of a dog finds a good home.

I need specifics about where she slept in the locker room. I like to think that she just stood up in a locker like that robot girl in "Small Wonder", awaiting her next command.
But the maids’ quarters apparently failed to satisfy Harp’s need for proximity, so she instead spent the summer camped out in the women’s locker room, shaving precious distance between herself and Trump, according to Wolff.
