Folks simply do not have money to spend on going to the movies. The cost of living crisis is hitting all generations and all age groups. 😞

Into your hands, O Lord,
I commend my spirit;
For you have redeemed me, O Lord,
O God of truth.
Keep us, O Lord,
as the apple of your eye;
Hide us
under the shadow of your wings.

Lord, have mercy.
Christ, have mercy.
Lord, have mercy.

Amen.

Oct. 28, 1925: The mummy of King Tutankhamun is opened 3,248 years after the boy pharaoh was sealed into his tomb. The expedition led by British archaeologist Howard Carter also yields Tut's gold death mask, perhaps the most splendid and iconic of all Ancient Egyptian relics. 1/5

Agatha Christie likely drew on her experiences as a débutante in Cairo c. 1909 when she wrote DEATH ON THE NILE. Her father had died & her mother didn't have the money for her to "come out" into London society. They only interacted with other Brits of course. This is her in Paris in 1906 ^PG

Your cup of joe just got more expensive. Prices are up 12.4% in just one year, the highest rise in the nation. From beans to rent, costs keep climbing, and Washingtonians are paying the harsh prices of Trump and Republicans’ reckless economic agenda.
Seattle's coffee just got pricier — more than any big U.S. city
A Seattle coffee now costs $4.50 — up 12%, the biggest jump among major U.S. cities, per Toast.
