Sister Jean was a role model in Illinois — inspiring us to embrace our neighbors.

As a lover of life, she taught us to channel positivity to keep us hopeful in times of need and kept that attitude all the way to a life well-lived at 106 years old.

May her memory be a blessing.

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

SCOOP: The Bureau of Land Management says the largest solar project in Nevada — the Esmeralda 7 mega-farm — has been canceled

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency

She’s pro democracy. I guess the Nobel committee doesn’t like giving peace prizes to fascists.

How about a good start for the weekend.
Donald didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize.
He didn't come in second, third or fourth.
He didn't place at all.
Oh, by the way, we are still waiting for THE EPSTEIN FILES.

Moscow Times reports that following the coal industry, a crisis began in the metallurgical industry in Russia. And this is despite the fact that Russia needs metal for the creation of military equipment.

At least President Lincoln knew what habeas corpus was when he suspended it.
