It's good to hear. Peter has long been a thoughtful writer and observer.

Chad, you listen so that I don’t have to. Thank you for that. They may be good at what they do, but it’s not worth the exhausting negativity. I’ve given up on all the shows on both stations, but Felger and Mazz were the first to go.

I get it. We left Jackson, NH, after 20 years for the same reason. Now I rent off-season on the Outer Cape, where prices are even more insane. We take off for 3 months out West for the summer. Thankfully, as a writer I can work from anywhere.

Given the circumstances, this is one of the worst games Jaylen Brown has played this season. He's struggled with his handle, gotten called for a couple of pushoffs, has missed jumpers and layups. Celtics have come to expect a lot more from him and they need it now.

I doubt that Pope Leo XIV will lose any sleep over this, before he begins his pilgrimage to Africa tomorrow. But the rest of us should. Because it is unhinged, uncharitable and unchristian. Is there no bottom to this moral squalor?

Millions of American voters wanted to be villains. They came to believe it’s the key to success, while goodness is weak, woke, loser stuff, done only to signal. Offered the option of unvarnished villainy, they enthusiastically took it. Seeing others suffer more made them feel big. And here we are.
