In Prison, Holding Handwritten Cards Is a Rare Joy. Illinois Is Taking It Away.
When mail is digitized, it becomes sterile – no longer a precious handwritten card that smells like my gramma's perfume.

Denmark lost more troops per capita in the post 9/11 war on Afghanistan. Saying they “are not a good ally” because they won’t surrender their territories to the US is lunacy. We are betraying our allies to satisfy the whims of a would-be Emperor for whom the US is not enough.
They’re again advocating against Denmark when it comes to Greenland

According to FBI agents involved in the raid, Attorney General William Barr was on the scene and he personally took custody of many items seized, a step they thought highly unusual.
