I have about (30) 25-year-old southern yellow (loblolly) pines that are dead or dying from beetles. If I get them down and debarked fast enough, the wood can be used. If I have 30 useable logs…I’m halfway to a log cabin. Asked oldest son if he wants me to stack and store them for him to build the

So I watched Marco Polo a couple of weeks ago, and I had a lot of thoughts about how wonderful it was to see so many phenomenal actors tell these stories I never heard about in my (US) school years, and that it is disappointing it had to be centered around a white character to come to fruition.

Exactly. I’ve been saying this since I started the tracker last year, and it’s why I don’t call them deportations. gillianbrockell.com/tracking-all...
I am using the term "third-country removals" instead of "third-country deportations" here, because the latter is a legal process in which a migrant is resettled in a safe third country. What is actually happening, in nearly all cases, more closely resembles chain refoulement, rendition, or kidnapping - and may violate U.S. and

Twenty-five years later, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives stolen on September 11, 2001, and honor the first responders who ran toward danger to save others. My heart is with every family, survivor, and loved one carrying that loss today. You are not alone, and we will never forget.

In May, 16-year-old Juliana Nzita was found dead in a Charlotte churchyard. CMPD called it a suicide. Her family isn’t so sure.

real friendships involve the other person pushing back against you, having needs, being busy, not being able to devote themselves to you. we know from the experience of the powerful that having somebody at your literal beck and call is a factor in driving people mad.
