May every single human being on this planet be safe.

May every single person be protected from harm.

May we bring into being a time in which we are all free from those who do evil— together, speedily and in our days.

Medically vulnerable hubby (routinely mocked for masking) had some legal biz today. Met by lawyer & her assistant, both wearing N95 masks, who'd set up a chair & table with a white tablecloth & a bottle of water OUTSIDE for him to safely sign his papers.

Meanwhile in Canada the Conservatives make a bold campaign promise to brink back plastic straws. Because surely this is the top priority for Canadians right now.

Please vote for grown-up people with grown-up ideas. #Cdnpoli

Stunning interview here on CNN with Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly and Christiane Amanpour.

Is the ‘Bridget Jones’ Movie Making You Nostalgic? Try ‘Crossing Delancey.’
This 1988 rom-com, starring Amy Irving, joins the Criterion Collection this month. But it has been warming hearts for decades.
