How is it possible that the same people who routinely chant "Lock her up!" years after an election is over are truly the criminals who defy the Constitution and other precedents left and right, from holding rallies at the White House to taking down a president's portrait, calling election officials to demand ballots be "found" to filing dozens of lawsuits against a U.S. election... Seriously, how are these people still in office, let alone not arrested for treason?
Every milestone in the past few elections has been so exciting to witness, from more women, more people of color, more LGBTQ representation, more indigenous people, all elected into office. Missouri just welcomed another wonderful person to celebrate as our first Black woman in the U.S. House, Cori Bush!
Ever since learning about the benefits of a good bath, I've been on the hunt for more ways to stick a bath in my routine. I normally struggle to find time for basic self-care, even while at home, so it's been a challenge. One thing I've learned is that if I buy a bath bomb or salts, I make it a priority to use what I've spent my money on! I'm sure many can relate to that kind of prioritization.
Every time I learn about an animal using tools, setting traps or otherwise engaging in behavior I normally wouldn't expect, I get so excited. Don't you? It's so neat to see the things different species are capable of, even if it disturbs us, like this huntsman spider might do.
After reading about all of the benefits of a hot bath (especially after knowing how I feel after I have one anyway!), I've decided to take more baths in 2021. That led me to the idea of also getting more bath bombs!
With so many friends reading a certain book sequel filled with nostalgia for nostalgia's sake and me abstaining because I can't stand the main character and his horrible views, attitude and behavior, I'm re-watching Stranger Things because it's my favorite source of nostalgia and SO much more wholesome. I can't wait for season four, and according to David Harbour, it's going to be the best season for Hopper.
Anyone who's taken a foreign language class knows there's no direct translation from any language to another. Even if you fail the class it's an important lesson to learn. That's why everything we've ever read--from the Bible to the Odyssey--is completely different in its original meaning from the meaning we make of it, simply due to its translation.
When art makes a bold statement, it can really make you think. Sometimes it's not pleasant. Once I took a group of kids on a field trip to the Contemporary Art Museum where a violent video played on repeat as an artistic commentary. Other times, it just pulls at your gut--like when we see photos of the groceries of one family next to those of another less fortunate family.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) has chosen to fund five projects for the development of advanced nuclear reactor designs. The reactors will be constructed by private industry. The funding is part of the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (ARDP) at the DOE’s Office of Nuclear Energy. The initial thirty-million-dollar fund will grow to as much as six hundred million dollars in the next seven years.
