It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before itβs too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.

Today in Japan, if you're from Kanto and practice Shinto, is the Festival of Broken Needles.

Tonight's history lesson:
Amid all the concerns raised about our current state of constitutional chaos, a few points deserve special mention.

Gregg Bordowitz: There: a Feeling
"'Attention is the rarest and purest form of generosity,' writes Simone Weil in Gravity and Grace (published posthumously in 1952). 'Attention, taken to its highest degree, is the same thing as prayer. It presupposes faith and love.' This is a show of immense gravity and grace, faith and belief."
