I'll probably make comments about sports.
As a Miami native, the book, Mayra really resonated with me. It's a story about two women who grew up in Hialeah then grew apart. They reconnect years later, spending some days at a remote (unsettling) house in the Everglades area.

I definitely recommend reading Wilmington's Lie. A clear failure by our government to protect democracy and the people of Wilmington. There's also a PBS doc if you're short on time: Watch American Coup: Wilmington 1899 PBS share.google/GHWOSs5xT2pp...

I've been spending a lot of time in NC and i am making it a priority to learn the history of the state. Currently reading Wilmington's Lie. I was never taught this in school.

New in PN: How to steal a state supreme court seat with one weird trick

"Republicans succeeded in changing the rules not midgame but literally after they lost. Nothing will stop them from doing this again and again, making a mockery of elections and injecting confusion into results."

If you’re a North Carolinian, you can check whether your name or the names of anyone you know is on the list of the 65K voters whose votes may be tossed. You could have an opportunity to fix it if so.

You have to hand it to UCONN. An absolute clinic and well deserved champions.

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

“But imagining a case with a more direct impact—say, a governor’s race—isn’t hard. A world in which losing candidates can indefinitely delay the certification of elections with ex post facto challenges is one that could paralyze democratic government.”

Went ahead and deleted my Amazon music app. It was convenient having The Daily commercial free but I'm not supporting that. Using another app for podcasts.

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary.

It can't get a distributor in the US.

Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.
