Nope! Not interested in the games or adding to their ratings! Just hate checking the score periodically and living our lives!

The Alabama Murders | Revisionist History Florence, Alabama. 1988. A preacher has an affair. A woman is murdered. One death cascades into more. This leads to a national debate on who gets to live or die, and how the state should execute them....

My son’s University Seminar last year, as a freshman, was with Professor McAdams whose class I took as a junior when he was new to ND. We were his first child of a student pair from what I understand! So lovely. ☺️

The Typical College Student Is Not Who You Think It Is

"There are more than 19 million college students in the US. Most are well removed from corridors of wealth+power..43% of undergrads attend community college. 25% live with their parents."

a listicle for everyone, especially for the NYT editors themselves to learn

The Senators that voted 'yes' on this disastrous bill represent more than 30 million FEWER Americans than the Senators that voted 'no.'

A β€œStriking” Trend: After Texas Banned Abortion, More Women Nearly Bled to Death During Miscarriage A new ProPublica data analysis adds to the mounting evidence that abortion bans have made the common experience of first-trimester miscarriage far more dangerous.

NEW: More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban.

Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. β€œThis is striking,” one doctor said. β€œThe trend is very clear.”

CALL YOUR SENATORS AND HOUSE REPS. GET OTHER PEOPLE TO CALL AS WELL. THEN DO IT AGAIN.
