A Roman Catholic priest in Chicago named Dowling? Does he solve mysteries in his spare time?

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Some people of Assyrian descent self-identify as Chaldean, which feels similar. There's fairly large group of them in the Detroit area.

Thanks, but at the risk of sounding ungracious, I worked in IT too long to click that link. In any event, it's still not in the Wait Wait feed on Spotify, but it eventually showed up at npr.org/waitwait.

Wait Wait...Don't Tell Me!

Recorded in Honolulu, with host Peter Sagal, guest judge and scorekeeper Alzo Slade, Not My Job guest Taimane, and panelists Paula Poundstone, Joyelle Nicole Johnson, and Peter Grosz

The headline is particularly terrible, but the article itself is clear-eyed in a way most news stories like this are not. It comes right out and says "A driver struck two pedestrians" rather attributing it to the car or putting it in the passive voice.

Never listen to fans. We're idiots who demand the thin gruel of cameos & references over the nourishing meal of story & character & our appetite will never be sated.

I just realized Spotify doesn't know how alphabetization works. "In the Midnight Hour" and "In the Street" should come before "Inside Out," and "I Saw Her Again," "I Saw Her Standing There," and "I Saw the Light" should come before all of the others.

We are in the second week of the Republican shutdown.

Where are House Republicans? On vacation.

Went looking around the Capitol to see if any Republicans had the common sense to come back. Featuring @mcbride.house.gov.

It remains deeply embarrassing that the preeminent protest organization in the US doesn't know that the red X goes OVER the thing being protested, not under it.

I believe this makes him the first actor to play comic book characters from two different companies.
